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/
I’m so happy for everyone else in these comments saying they got on the reservation list.

That’s definitely some rough luck. Hopefully you’re on the next round!
I was lucky enough to make it on the 1TB reservation queue in the US!
I also managed to make the reservation list! In the US.
I’m amazed, I literally never win anything. I very much expected to be on the wait-list.
I got lucky and got in the queue.
That’s awesome! So jealous though
Same, had a couple of friends join the list and myself and one friend got lucky. Wish it were cheaper, but I’m excited.
Meanwhile I’m still waiting for my Steam Machine reservation 😭
That reminded me to check my email and I’m in queue for the 1Tb. I think this might rate my first woot in over a decade.
Woot!
Woot!

I got into the reservation Queue, US
Wait, there’s another queue?
Yeah there’s a reservation queue (you’ll get it soon) and a waitlist (not so soon).
There are several reservation queues:
- 256 GB North America
- 256 GB United Kingdom/European Union
- 256 GB Australia
- 1TB North America
- 1TB United Kingdom/European Union
- 1TB Australia

Yeah me too.
Yup, waitlist. Very sad. At least we can share in the sadness together.
I also landed on the waitlist. Sad :(
256GB, GermanyI got lucky and got onto the reservation list for a 1TB model!
(Germany)
also got lucky, with the 256gb model!
256,EU
also waitlist 😭
Damn, that email meant I missed the draw?
I’ve missed every steam lottery draw and this one sucks the most. 50% odds, too, apparently.
If it says waitlist, then yes. If it says reservation list, you made it!
Oh snap, I misread it! It says reservation.
Thanks for the comment!

Oh yay, I got the email saying “reservation queue” and wasn’t really sure what that meant - I assumed it was “you’ve not won this round, but you’re in the queue if someone drops out”.
yay!
Same.
They were going to go through the orders chronologically afterwards.
Four friends entered, 2 got it. I was expecting worse ratio.
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…
Ooof
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.
I actually got in the queue but I probably can’t afford the damn thing right now, I was being a bit optimistic when I signed up lmfao
