This is progress given that currently every third party controller has to be wired and everything else is rather clunky. I own a Brook adapter for fight sticks and let’s be real, it’s not a great solution.
I love my Razor Wolverine Ultimate (Gen 1) wired controller with the original Xbox style breakaway cord.
I realized how useless wireless controllers are when you are playing in one room, not far from the TV. Why the hell would I want to juggle with recharging and my controller dying on me?
Wired makes way more practical sense to me, and I believe wireless controllers are not actually any more convenient. It really just depends on what you’re looking for. The only way wireless is actually more convenient is if you’re playing super far from your TV or have a child or pet that messes with cords.
I’d rather not deal with batteries, crappy charger packs that lose their charge too quickly, or my controller dying during a game.
I think in a general sense, wireless electronics are more reasonable and convenient. But absolutely not wireless controllers if you’re going to be sitting on your ass in one place, not far from the TV. Then they are just more hassle with the only benefit rendered irrelevant (if you’re playing in one spot near your TV).
I believe most gamers fall into this category, and just don’t really consider what is more convenient and practical.
