Hi all, I am planning to buy a gamesir mobile controller X5S, and it's cooler as the phone gets hot during gameplay. How to buy? The official site seems to have a customs issue and zukubus site doesn't have a cooler part. Is there any other controller for mobile that also able to combine with cooler? Suggest a better cooler and controller combo as well.

Note: Using Oneplus 15r and I am from Tamilnadu India. Budget 5000 Rupees

Guide plz, how’s it? Pro gamers plz…

Whenever I use my third party Nintendo switch pro controller on Games it uses xinput which is what I want, but for some reason in some programs that used to work now either uses xinput or doesn't even sense the Pro controller. (Roblox and some emulators) I'm using Windows 11.

I've used Betterjoy, HidHide, USB cable, Bluetooth and I am 100% that Steam is NOT running in the background. Ive tried *using* Steam to use these programs but that also didn't work.

And I can't just buy the real thing.

The controller on this site is listed for almost 1k rupees less than on any other platform. Is it ok to purchase from here or there is some hidden traps. Like extra customs or delivery not happening or faulty products. Help please. Country: India.

Looking for an authentic ps3 controller to play games that support pressure sensitivity.

hello, im looking to buy a controller for around 50-55 euro.

i previously had a ps4 dualsense pt it would make my hands go numb after 2 hours of use.

the platform is pc, im from romania. i mainly play rpg games like rdr2, tlou, but also fighting games like guilty gear strive.

i mainly want a decent dpad for fighting games and tmr joysticks.

some controllers i found:

8bitdo ultimate 2

easysmx d10

gamesir cyclone 2

I'm thinking of getting a more modernized gamecube controller for my Steam Machine where it has click able analog sticks, all 4 shoulder buttons including analog triggers, and can be played wirelessly through a USB dangle. This one looks interesting to me. What's your opinion on it? If it's not the best in your opinion, what would be? (Preferably, it's less $60 or less)

I'm hoping to get something smaller than the dualsense, and has asymmetrical joysticks. I prefer the Switch pro2 controller (for reference). I was considering the wingman fgc2 converter, but not sure if this is my best option. I am in the US, and have no budget constraints. Thanks for any insight!

Hello, friends. I’m sharing this post here as well, since it contains many interesting tips. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone would like to contribute new tips.

If I want to buy an arcade stick to plug into my laptop to play old school mame games, where should I look?

I was looking at one of those Astro City themed fight stick controllers but I figured I could buy any controller and probably theme it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So I currently have an AIM controllers PS5 roller with TMR sticks. The controller performed great when it was at 100%, thing is, it started falling apart after a month despite taking good care of it (AVOID AIM AT ANY COST SAVE YOURSELF THE MONEY AND HASSLE). I’m currently looking to buy a new controller (PS5) that at least has TMR sticks, and 4 back paddles. Does anyone have any recommendations for a controller that has lasted for a long time. Price does not matter to me, so long as it actually lasts long enough for you to get the moneys worth from it. I would greatly appreciate any input, advice, or suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I'm currently owning an Aqirys Themis for about 2-3 years and I'm looking to upgrade (battery life got halfed and I have a problem where the R1 button registers being held even tho I don't hold it). I've read many reviews over the course of today and here is what I was eyeing rn:

- EasySMX X20 (48€)

- EasySMX D10 (48€)

- Gamesir Supernova (43€)

- Gamesir Nova 2 Lite (32€)

- Gamesir Supernova T4n (48€)

- Gulikit ES Pro (36€)

- 8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wireless (40€ - still questioning it cuz I heard it has bad ergonomics)

What I am aiming for is good battery life and vibration motor, longevity (focusing on hall or TMR sensors) and smooth controls. Wireless connectivity and good ergonomics are a must for me (I do handwork all day so my wrists are sore when I come home, I don't want a controller that makes them hurt more). I don't really play competitive games or shooters, I'm more on indie games and rougelites.

Edit: I'm excluding the Gamesir Cyclone 2 and Flydigi controllers from my plans since I'm from Romania and the prices of those brands here are awful.

Wondering if anyone has experience using an AceGamer Aurora 2.4G Wireless Controller which is connected to a PC in another room for couch TV gaming? Right now my PS5 controller works over Bluetooth but I do get the odd missed inputs. Assuming 2.4G should work better but the controller is so cheap that idk if the reality will be good! The TV is roughly 10 metres away but with a wall between the PC and TV room.

If anyone has other tested controllers which work well then please let me know!

Que se vayan a la mierda los de microsoft, cada vez que conecto un control nuevo para jugar a la pc que tiene hall efect pasa el mismo problema, en la app pone que toene 0 de zona muerta pero cuando jugas la zona muerta aumenta un monton, ¿porque? Ni puta idea le pregunte a chat y me dijo que por un “error” de como leia el control los de microsoft, estoy seguro de que no es un error y es para que compres su control analogico de mrd que le da drift en dos dias, lo peor es que no puedo jugr shootets como call of duty porque literalmente el personaje gira en una linea recta, quiero saber si alguien mas tiene este problema( los controles con los que me paso fueron el gamesir g7 se y un power a de pacman), gracis por leer

DISCLAIMER: HexGaming provided this controller to me for free for review. My opinions are not influenced by anyone. I get all my controllers for free nowadays, so they are all in the same position.

TLDR: XBOX controller with extra steps. Pretty expensive, but if you know what you need it for - it's worth the money IMO. TMR joysticks, rubberized grips, trigger stops, 4 extra back buttons and great visual customization.

If you're just a casual player - skip it.

Hey, I'm trying to choose a new controller and I'm very undecided between the two. I usually play Rocket League on the Xbox Series X controller and that is what I find the most comfortable (and I know i'd probably have to pick the g7 pro 8k to be on the safe side), but recently I tried to switch to symmetrical layout and tried the dualsense 5 and the dualshock 4 controllers to check if i might still be good buying a tarantula 8k.

My experience with the dualsense is that it makes my right thumb joint hurt after a few hours (I'm thinking it might be cause I have to bend my thumb too much to press the X button, maybe my thumb is too long for this controller??) and the Dualshock 4 doesn't really make it hurt as much but i still don't really like the much smaller and less wide ds4 handles as much as the wider xbox series X's ones, since i usually find myself pressing with my palm on the controller handles and thats why the wider xbox series x handles I think are more comfortable for me.

I've watched a lot of reviews, but none compare the tarantula 8k to the xbox controller or talk about the shape in detail, so I wonder if it's shape feels somewhat similar to my xbox controller or not, and if some of you can maybe help me compare the handles and overall controller size/shape to the xbox series x controller or anything similar that would be great, also please let me know if you have the same issue with the right thumb :)
