So my old wireless Xbox 360 controller is kind of on its last legs, bad stick drift, thumbstick rubber starting to rub off, and I'm looking for a replacement. Would gladly just buy another 360 controller but they haven't made them in years.
Got an 8bitdo Ultimate earlier this year and it has not lasted. Out of the box, the thumbsticks started losing sensitivity in one or two directions after a few hours of play, but I could get around this by messing with the deadzones in the software. Not an ideal solution, since it lowered the resolution, but it worked.
But now it's got new and exciting problems that I can't work around. Sometimes the B button won't register at all. Sometimes the A button will press on its own. And my favorite, sometimes the entire controller just freezes and won't accept any input for seconds at a time.
I had a coworker recommend a GuliKit but the face buttons are backward and that's enough to put me off it.
Any advice?
Not sure since the Xbox Wireless controller is technically an Xbox One controller, I believe? I don't know if they've had multiple revisions over time or changed anything. Maybe updated the Bluetooth version.
Looks like it works with both bluetooth and the proprietary "Xbox Wireless" frequency, so it should work.
