This guy will have to wait for his younger brother.

It was available to buy starting noon local time. I refreshed the page until the buy option became available, but kept getting an error when submitting payment. Waited about half an hour and now it’s sold out. Ni modo I guess.

    I have mine still. Bought it at launch. Never went back. Best controller I’ve ever had the pleasure to use. I genuinly LOVE everything about it. I don’t even want the new one.

    Can’t improve upon perfection

      I’ve had mine not since launch, but for many years. I use it occasionally, mostly as a curiosity, but can’t reliably get used to it long term. Do you play many action games with it? I find 3D camera controls are too awkward for me.

      I’ve had 2 different ones, and both got the “R1” button broken. It’s a pity because it’s the best controller I’ve ever used

        I have repaired this myself at least 4 different times. The piece is so flimsy. Still love this controller.

        I’ll sorry to hear that. I suppose I’ve been fortunate enough to never have any issues at all with mine. I will be a sad day when it gives up. I don’t think I could play Elden Ring with any other controller.

      The only thing that appeals to me with the SC2 is having 4 back buttons. I love my OG, but I often struggle to decide upon where to bind CTRL or SHIFT modifiers. I like to use the existing back buttons for mode-shifting.

      I recently setup my OG for playing Endless Sky. It’s wonderful. On a low-power arm64 machine as well.
