When did chinkshit controller beat first party? The hall effect revolution of a few years ago?

>>723184120 (OP)
Chinese true innovation outflanking the complacent, greedy AmeriJap hebrews. An omen of the future to come?

I can't comprehend how could anyone think gamesaar is a good name for a company

>>723186330
It's memeable which counts for a lot these days

>>723184120 (OP)
I'd say early 2023, when design flaws in hall effect sticks were ironed out and options that had them without adding 1-3 frames of delay (60fps) came out

>>723186330

but your brain is indian

>>723187218
nice cope, but GameSir disagrees with you

The fact none of the 3 major console company have 1st party hall effect controller tells you they want to milk every last dollar and cent you have replacing their shit controller every 2 years.

>>723184120 (OP)
First party still has better quality control

Someone talk me out of buying pic related pls.

>>723188658
I went from using a flydigi for a year to digging up the Xbox core controller because it was compatible with my new used Xbone. I was aghast at how crappy it felt in comparison and idk how I used to main with it.

>>723184120 (OP)
Nintendo realized last generation they could purposefully make expensive controllers with the possibility of stick drift making them useless and that most people will complain and buy replacements at full price, natually Sony and Microsoft followed this generation at the possibility of getting EVEN MORE money
Chinese controllers now fill in the gap for people who just want something that works and don't care about fancy things like NFC support/hd rumble/haptic triggers/swapping out dpads for a pizza dish

>>723188726
its asushit instead of the better girl

>>723188726
There's As*ka in there, what more reason do you need to avoid that shit like the plague?

>>723185208
bro is spitting. american century of humiliation. chinese century of progress. simple as

>>723188726
>Asuka
*spits*

I don't think i'll ever buy a chink controller because there's always something wrong with them, and i doubt they'll last that long. I still have my launch ds2, ds3 and ds4 and they all work perfectly

>>723189342
>>723189352
>>723189568
The reifag seethe just makes me want to buy it even more to be desu.

>>723188364
Why not just replace the pots? Everyone on /v/ should have a soldering station in 2025.

>>723189592
This.
Bought one chink controller everybody shilled in January and it’s not working properly anymore since last week.

>>723184120 (OP)
>When did chinkshit controller beat first party?
when they used better parts for less money. there zero excuse for first party to still be using shitty alps pots for the price they charge. they depend on people being dumb, and sony knows this. they give their customers the privilege of buying a dual sense edge so they can keep buying the same shitty stick pots over and over.

First party manufacturers have always sandbagged their controllers to an extent(both in terms of durability and quality control), replacement controllers are a nice revenue stream they have no reason to give up on.
The difference between now and back in, say, the PS360 generation and earlier is that: i. controllers used to be modestly priced so it wasn't a big deal when you had to get a replacement, and ii. there was no global e-commerce infrastructure to allow for third party manufacturers to properly address the market. So it's not a case of first party controllers getting worse, they just got more expensive and cheaper better alternatives cropped up.

>>723190460
controllers simply used to be built better but you were expected to buy multiple of them for local coop. now there's so many bells and whistles in them that there's a lot more that can break. sega was using hall effect sticks on the saturn/dreamcast though, so we've regressed fairly hard.

reminder that if the controller doesn't have a swappable battery then it's ewaste, that leaves us with the xbox series controller and 8bitdo pro 2
reminder that if the controller doesn't have a chatpad then it's shit for pc use, that leaves us with the xbox series controller
don't buy ewaste anons

>>723191425
I have a keyboard retard

>>723191684
chatpad is better

>>723191425
Reminder that if you're too stupid to replace the battery no matter the controller, you're a dumb nigger and should kill yourself

>>723191778
>t. ewaste buyer

I have never once needed to replace a controller battery, and if I did there's only 4-6 screws in the way of doing so on anything
surely you know how to use a screwdriver anon

>>723191908
can you buy oem batteries from the manufacturer?
can you use rechargeable double aa's?

>>723186330
It's just a Game Boy reference. "saar" is /int/ brain rot

>>723191843
And what is the difference between throwing a battery from your chink or xbox controller and the one from the ds5? Both are ewaste, but at least i can replace both unlike you :^)

>>723188658
It really doesn't, is the thing. Dualsense is a worse controller than the Dualshock 4, and that's not even getting into the subscription scam of the Dualsense Edge and its stick modules. Of the three current flagship controllers I'd only point to the Switch 2 Pro Controller as holding a candle to current Chinese offerings, and Chinese offerings are still nicer and more feature dense while not being a glued-together pain in the fucking ass to disassemble, modify, or repair.

>>723192141
can you go from 0 to 100% in under 60 seconds?

>>723184120 (OP)
>When did chinkshit controller beat first party?
When couch co-op died and the three major manufacturers realized they no longer need controllers to last a long time.
Back then, they couldnt' afford to have up to 4 controllers constantly break. But since couce co-op is dead, people buy one to two controllers.

The major companies don't want to sell only one or two controllers. They want to sell a lot. And how do you sell a lot of controllers to a moronic fanbase that only cares "about how the burger tastes and not how it's made"

>>723192423
so that's a no then

I recently got the GameShark cyclone 2 and guess what the buttons are already a creaky mess

It's really tiresome watching shills wank over which pointless gimmick each Xbone knockoff has instead of anyone offering anything actually useful like ergonomic alternatives to the 2 1/2 awful shapes on the market.

>>723192665
Can't really get much more ergonomic than existing controllers without molding the shell to the shape of gripping hands and stuff like that.

>>723192569
Most batteries have between 30 and 60% charge when you buy them, which is more than enough to last you for the entire gaming session

But you didn't tell me how your chink batteries are any less of a ewaste than other lithum batteries that last 10x longer?

But i guess you'll just move the goalpost again

>>723192925
no goalposts were moved, I was just showing how having a swappable battery is better

>>723192531
Yeah obviously the "here's your controller dude" meme is because everyone bought 4 of the highest quality first party video gaming control remotes for couch multiplayer, what a fucking ridiculous story Chang.

>>723191995
Replacement batteries matching or exceeding the specs can be purchased aftermarket for a few dollars, they aren't proprietary

>>723192925
>But you didn't tell me how your chink batteries are any less of a ewaste than other lithum batteries that last 10x longer?
I don't know what's wrong with people that assume lithium batteries have a magical Chinese aspect that cause them to be time-bombs, but the Japanese and American machines manufactured in the same facilities using the same batteries in different housings have different, good, corporate magic.

>>723190676
It's not really about hall sticks though. Sure they last longer than the shitty potentiometer sticks they put in controllers in [currentyear] but the shittiness of those current sticks is mostly due to cutting rather than the tech sucking. Controllers used to have sticks that lasted way longer just because they spent more money on them, but now they're trying to shave cents where they can.

>>723193212
poorfags need not apply. Any one who didn't have to choose between food for a week and MadCatz controllers bought the controllers that didn't break.

>>723191425
>chatpad
I don't play matchmakingslop and when I chat with my friends I use a microphone

>>723193173
Fuck off cunt. I called you out on your bullshit and you just responded with
>ewaste buyer
and after i called you out on that too, and told you that both are ewaste, you just said
>but what about 0-100% in 60 seconds

if that's not moving a goalpost everytime you don't know how to respond then i don't know what is

>>723193282
yes but are they oem?

>>723193495
you think posting controllers a removable back cover is bullshit?

>>723193330
all are ewaste you chink shill, no matter if japs, americans or chinks make them

>>723193590
yes because you call all other controllers ewaste even though you throw 10x more batteries than your average dualshock or any oyher owner. How many batteries did your average xbox 360 owner threw, and how many did playstaton owner? I didn't have to replace my ds3 battery in these 18 years, and you will do it multiple times during the first year of owning your chink controller

>>723193397
For some controllers it's less that they didn't drift, in fact their raw input shows they drift like all absolute holy hell, but rather that controllers tended to auto-calibrate WAY better than modern controllers do

>>723193823
rechargeable battery packs exist so this is a solved issue

>>723193970
Then how's that fucking different frow swapping the lithium battery yourself? Other than having two functional braincells required for such a monumental task

>>723194110
you can carry spars in your backpack and swap them out is one thing

>>723194110
ironic, i think you might actually be retarded anon

Wireless controllers are for media center fags.

>>723184120 (OP)
I started dating a chinse girl lately. It's really nice.

>>723184120 (OP)
Fell for it, never touching chink brand shit again. Nothing against hardware, but the software side was abysmal. Every few days would just randomly stop being recognized. Threw it against a wall and went back to xbawks

>>723194241
>you can carry spars in your backpack
in what scenario will i need to carry a spare battery in my backpack? Emergency swap while i'm camping innawoods?

>>723194319
are you also too dumb to replace the battery yourself

>>723194335
Wireless controllers with a dock are really nice, it's actually kinda silly that Xbox and Playstation didn't start doing that for their controllers when they're both trying to present themselves as the sports-car of consoles. No-brainer move to have a dedicated charging platform for your wireless controller

>>723194657
playing games in an airplane or hotel

I got a GameSAAR cyclone 2, amazing quality for it's cheap price.
Only issue is I can see the rubber on the sticks wearing over time, but they're easily removable and replaceable.

>>723194367
Are they shy like japanese girls or they are more confident?

>>723194657
who says we can't replace the battery? It's just that we are smart enough to buy devices that doesn't need tools to replace the battery in the first place

>>723195142
I can't think of a controller where that isn't an issue
>but they're easily removable and replaceable
I've never messed with mine, are the caps modular or something?

>>723195232
she is very shy. i tried speaking mandarin to her and she begged me to stop because she was embarassed. it was very cute.

>>723185208
kek, the chinese are the greediest, jewest cunts in the world
they cut corners on fucking construction

>>723191425
nigger what are you on?
chatpads are only useful for CONSOLES because your keyboard is right fucking there

>>723193880
They have awful centering, which auto-calibration helps with
If the potentiometer is damaged and inputs are constantly jumping around, which is what's typically referred to with drift, no amount of calibration is going to help with that.
also you can find claims of people going through multiple DS2s due to sticks malfunctioning if you comb through old forums, the term "stick drift" just didn't exist until current gen

>>723194470
I've never downloaded software for a controller, anything I need can be done through steams remapping software

>>723188726
You should only buy this if you can afford a Kensuke one to go with it

What are the best dpad centric controllers right now? One where it's in a prominent position like sony's or the 8bitdo pro 3

>>723200159
Gulikit Elves 2 (non-Pro), presumably the upcoming Gulikit TT Pro/TT Max will have the same d-pad and release some time this month
I've heard good things about the d-pad in Gamesir Tegenaria Lite, but have no firsthand experience with it. Apparently comparable to or possibly better than DS4.

>>723194826
don't reply to me you 5c/hour yellow ape

>>723200159
Symmetrical layout your best option is probably going to be
>Gamesir Tegenaria Lite, rubber membrane d-pad/buttons, $20 usually. This controller invalidates the wired 8bitdo Pro 2
>8bitdo Pro 3, PS Vita d-pad
>Gulikiot Elves 2 (NOT the Pro version)

>>723184120 (OP)
China is just superior
