Just stop being a poor. If you can't afford the controller maybe you should focus on getting a better job first.
use rubbing alcohol and extensively clean it once you purchase it or even take the controller apart and soak the buttons. ngmi
get an american flag. stomp on it daily. use it as a door mat. that is what i am doing. it makes patriot slaves very upset
They also raised the price of consoles +$100 and the raised game prices to $80!!!!!!!
Tariffs aren’t on MSRP. They are on import price.
Go to best buy instead
How am I supposed to play Lootbox Opening Simulator 2K25 when the controller costs almost 5 lootboxes?
10 buttons and either two analog joysticks or 8 more buttons.... $73.
Ah, the smell of market entry! I wonder if the interface is USB or something serial? That would be a Micro pic chip...

Fixing controllers requires soldering which takes practice, but yeah it’s really not that difficult.

Extra cost is to certify it as deep sea submersible steering rated.
OP's post shows a model 1708 controller. The calibration data for the joysticks resides on the main control chip on the motherboard. There haven't been any tools released, to my knowledge, to reprogram it. Desoldering the old sticks and soldering in new ones is not hard as long as you don't lift any pads. But since the old calibration data for the original joysticks cannot be overwritten, the controller will still have stick drift after the new sticks are installed. This is because all potentiometers are made within a tolerance range, and the new ones won't be identical to the originals. For PS4 and PS5 controllers this isn't a problem since you can simply reprogram the main chip after installing new sticks using freely available tools, so it'll be literally as good as a brand new one straight out of the factory. But with model 1708 Xbone controllers you need to spend 20 minutes painstakingly bending the wiper discs into just the right position in order to try to match the calibration data already on the main chip. Even then, it'll never be perfect. Microsoft released a tool to rewrite the calibration data for model 1914 controllers only. But older models like the one in OP's photo require immense patience to manually adjust the sticks to match the preexisting calibration.
You get what you voted for
Trump tards will be like “you don’t need anything anyway.. we need everything to be more expensive for no reason just because”
Level of cope of the MIGA golems is insance literally justifying price increases on everything when lying orange sack of shit ran on lowering prices. Now fucking Blumpf is rubbing it in like a Dickensian villain.
