    This is a pretty good controller but if you going to charge so much for it, make sure the quality is very good and the item last.

    This was a gift - I received no complaints, so my assumption is it is great. We have multiple gaming consoles so an extra controller is always needed.

    The best controller a gamer can buy. Once you get used to it and figure out good button mapping ( I recommend A,B,X,Y, your thumb never leaves the joystick so you can easily multitask) you will never want to use a normal controller again
