    I had purchased two controllers for Christmas presents. We haven't had any issues at all. They really enjoyed their gift. Still works great! Picked up in store not a long line and excellent customer service.

    Three boys, everyone's color coded, ever controller works how it should. I recommend getting rechargeable batteries versus store-bought and or alkaline. The rechargeables seem to last longer, the single-use ones really didn't. So unless you don't have backup batteries your kids are going to be really mad at you!
