Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi, CourtneyK. First, what a nice gift! Also, we'd be happy to help! The most popular gaming controller for Windows devices is the Xbox Wireless Controller. It plays nicely with most games, especially games from the Xbox app (after setup, you can activate a trial to Xbox Game Pass where you can access hundreds of games instantly). Here's a link in parentheses to view the controller and your color options: (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/microsoft-xbox-wireless-controller-for-xbox-series-x-xbox-series-s-xbox-one-windows-devices-carbon-black/6430655.p?acampID=0&affgroup=%22Content%22&cmp=RMX&irclickid=w3Mzy9TzhxyKRxUQS1WJgyOFUkCVS8RRTUNj100&irgwc=1&loc=Howl+Technologies%2C+Inc.&mpid=376373&nrtv_cid=w79h79votq051&ref=198&skuId=6430655&u1=pcg-us-4860189858735405197) Also, the controller comes with two AA batteries, but like usual, these can deplete quickly. As a stocking stuffer and to reduce battery use, here's another link to a rechargeable battery pack for the controller: (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/microsoft-rechargeable-battery-usb-c-cable-for-xbox-series-x-and-xbox-series-s-black/6430661.p?skuId=6430661)
