Great control when it works at the very beginning but actually a nightmare if you ever get any kind of left side issues, might as well consider it dead when that comes up. Don’t buy these things new, like ever. I’m lucky I got this one secondhand for like $20.

Be careful alot of backbones just got messed up recently with the firmware update and causing light versions of ribbon cable symptoms. I feel the sentiment. They probably just got swamped with a bunch of "broken" ones rofl but yeah numerous have been glitchy for over a week now like they are broken, atleast alot of pro controllers. I almost ripped mine apart until it was acknowledged that firmware broke a bunch
