There's no other controllers with touchpad other than dualsense I could find. And dual sense didn't work for me very well on steam

That's why people want it. I looked extensibly.... I'm used to gaming on keyboard or mouse so I figured I'm better on touchpad than sticks

And why would they need the press coverage into 2027? Id expect they'd prefer sales, where the money could be used for marketing.They already have products like steam frame which will generate media attention later this year
