    It’s a great controller. From the specs of the elite controller, it’s really similar and one the best models to come out yet. It lasts a really long time if you’re careful with it. If you get stick drift just open the panels underneath the triggers and get a 8T star bit screwdriver to open it up and lube up the joysticks.

    This reminds me of the days when Nintendo 64 started doing their see through systems and controllers. They are the pinnacle of design in my opinion, and this controller pays homage to it very well. 5 stars!
