Yay. My Playstation controller is at the point where it needs to be replaced. It’s got both battery capacity issues and charging issues. I’m hoping that the Steam controller lasts longer than the PS4 Pro controller b/c for the price that Sony charges, I’d expect those to last longer than mine has, especially given how little time I spend playing / using it.
I’ve been looking forward to the Steam controller. I was starting to think I should give up and just go get another PS controller. Granted, I’m sure I won’t get a first release Steam controller. They’ll have a limited quantity and wouldn’t surprise me if they’re gone by the time that the steam store has recovered from the outage and bugs that crop up every time a new product goes on sale.
Didn’t the PS4 Pro controller come out 10 years ago?
I’m not sure when they came out. Why would it matter, though?
Why would t it matter? Does age not matter when it comes to how an electronic is expected to perform? I don’t expect to get more than 10 years Of perfect play out of any controller. Whether it stick drift or buttons wearing out or whatever the case may be. Nothing lasts forever even in perfect conditions. Not to mention the battery is the quickest thing the degrade anyhow. How often do you even see miniUSB cables?
You do know that not everybody who owns a PS4 controller bought them on day 1 when they were originally released, right? That it’s possible people like myself bought them much later than in 2016, correct? And you also realize that the problems I’m talking about – those didn’t start yesterday.
Literally daily.
Ok, but you do realize that even if you didn’t purchase it day 1, that the battery begins decaying from the first day it’s created right? And maybe you’re not in the US, but at least where I’m at you have to go out of your way to purchase a miniUSB cable.
Wondering the same thing. Probably a battery replacement would ail their woes.
