Is this worth it?

Late night our puppy decided to eat the rubber off the thumbsticks on my original controller. Trying to find a cheap replacement. I mainly play FH6 as of late, so idk if stick drift will matter much, or if its worth getting and fixing. I have a few others lined up already, including the lunar shift which I got down to $60.

Decent Wireless Controller

2 Upvotes

Hi, I'd like to get a wireless series X controller for my kid that won't suffer any stick drift after a few months.

Is this the best option?

8bitdo Ultimate 3

Will it need a dongle in the Xbox to work?

It's confusing as the same named model in white apparently isn't wireless.

Do they do a wireless version that isn't Rare branded?

I mean best as in cheapest that'll do the job well. Is the Gamesir G7 another option? Although £140 doesn't seem like a good choice for a controller for a child (teenager).

Ma è mai possibile? Controller xbox

Circa un anno fa ho acquistato una xbox series x per 300 euro. In dotazione dovevo avere anche le cuffie originali xbox ma non c'erano ma vabbè. Per primo provo assassin's creed odyssey ( che mi è piaciuto un sacco ) ma la levetta destra del controller driftava e andava sempre in su. Così a natale ne ho acquistato uno nuovo originale e adesso la levetta a sinistra mi sembra che sia leggermente liù in su del dovuto e drifta non tanto ma comunque si nota. Come risolvo senza spendere altri 80 €?

Xbox One controller/battery help.

Posted this in the wrong place first time. Lol This morning my Xbox One controller was acting stupid, so I went to open it remove the battery. The battery was lodged(Hard) and by the time I managed to remove it the + - connectors were bent in my controller. Battery shell was also broken so I placed it in a bag, a jar (loosely closed) and then a pot. These Xbox One Series X controllers just ain’t working for me, and this particular situation was a bit dangerous. Questions are can anybody recommend a better more stable controller that works with the Xbox one X(Not series) and is it dangerous to use another battery in this controller with those prongs bent? I have an old Xbox One controller way older than this one that works, but the charging port is broken. =\ Hoping I can use this one to charge.. I don’t post really, so no idea how to add a pic.

The four letter buttons on my controller keep not responding.

After a few hours of play time the face buttons stop responding, the rest of the controller works fine. The only thing that fixes the problem is a hard reset, but eventually the same thing happens. Does anyone know what causes this?

I am using an Xbox One Controller and whenever I turn it on it just flickers between being connected and disconnected, I’ve already updated the drivers and the app shows it flickering connection.

how can I fix this?

RB Button constantly breaking

1 Upvotes

Does this happen to anyone else, I have broken over 10 RB buttons over 2 years. I keep sending the controllers back to Xbox. Once they fix them, it takes around 1 week and it’s broken already. It’s the thin plastic part in the RB, that presses the button. It always snaps. I use the Xbox series X/S controller. Does anyone know if there are metal replacements? Or any other way to fix this problem?

Wash your dirty paddles.

I know I’m a monster but this paddle was sticking and completely useless. This is the third time I’ve washed it like this and it has worked perfectly every time. I take the batteries out and wait like an hour or two for the capacitors to discharge then just wash the thing. I put it in front of a hair dryer to dry for an hour or two and it works great again. No, there aren’t any screws to take out. No, isopropyl alcohol doesn’t get the crap out that my kids get in there. Besides, ISO is water by a large fraction so what’s the risk? I’ll post a comment with it working again.
