Man that's rougher than I expected. 0/3, either we got really unlucky or supply vs. demand is way out of whack :(

Edit: Here's a website that's giving some rough estimates! https://steamframeout.com/

Edit 2: And this one: https://steamhardware.io/tracker/steam-frame/

Waitlist also, western NA region, 1TB model. Damn.

What are y'alls thoughts for when the next wave for reservations may go out? What were Machine/Controller waitlists like? This is my first foray into Steam lotteries.

As someone who is still in the waitlist for the Steam Machine, and Steam Controller...

For some, they still weren't like... they just are...

Would looove to know that too, I have no idea of what to expect on the waitlist.

The controller page gives an estimate now (the one someone sent me just said "2027" but that's something, apparently for some it said a specific month in 2026). Maybe after the first batch of reservations is fully sold the frame page will be updated similarly. Though if the website in the OP doesn't have some major sampling bias, it doesn't seem unlikely that the next batch will cover the remaining pre-registrations. Though when that batch will be not even valve might know right now.
