Is steam controll actually good for console and not pc?

The whole point of that pad is that it simulates mouse, so I would worry. Plus it will be terrible niche. No sane dev will dumb down their game for the 2-5% of audience that will have Steam pad.

The steam controller actually has a lot more configurations. So, it would actually benefit consoles... don't understand what PC gamer wants to use a gamepad over m/kb.

For that to even happen, Steamboxes would have to become popular, which, with the current multiple models, i don't see happening. We can also say the console market is bigger and there was a push to try and put RTS on consoles, but it didn't work.

The steamboxes will be popular among "console players" who want to treat like one. PC gamers will keep using their rigs and pc dedicated games will keep pushing for keyboard and mouse. Let's not forget controllers with pcs as been possible for years. i'd say tons of pc gamers have controllers already.

Couch gaming.

Possible with m/kb. I've done it for BF4 and its seemless. As beneficial it is for couch gaming, it shouldn't replace the m/kb.

Ya but you need like a stand to put your stuff on and you have to sit upright for MKB. This thing is perfect for lying on the couch and playing civ 5
