I do not want to spend a lot for a Razer or Hori because I have the means to build mine, except the PCB... and I do not want to sacrifice one fo the controllers I have... but I cannot find any broke one for cheap in my area so I wondering about a PCB to do the work but the ones I see on eBay and Aliexpress are for 360 or PS4, I have seen one for Xbox One on Aliexpress but it is 60 bucks and I am not going to pay that amount for chinese crap
.
I used to have a Cthulhu for PS3 a ton of years ago, kind of pricey but it was good, someone knows about a PCB similar to that one for Xbox One? I am looking for something about 35 shekels. Oh man, I am playing Cyber Shadow and KI with the controller... this should be illegal.

If the Xbox One controllers are anything like the 360 ones, they use some sort of proprietary authentication chip and every 3rd party has to be approved by MS and pay licensing in order to get access to the auth chips so they can release anything. On the 360 that was eventually cracked and that's why you can find 3rd party 360 controllers for cheap now.

That explains why I cannot find any cheap PCB, I do appreciate the info bro. I will do a research about which arcade stick should I get.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
