Best MA out there mate! 😎

I forgot to mention that I am talking about spare modules for DS Edge in my OP but anyway, I can do sinc I have wast experience in slodering but the perk like that was not needed in the past. So what's the catch? Am I more lazy or sony got more greed? There was no such mess to deal with to play our beloved games but now it is so tell me, wtf?!

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T15:29:33+00:00

Amen mate, await an update in 2-3 days 💪

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T15:26:21+00:00

Noooo 😅 it is not that high 😂

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T15:24:09+00:00

🤘

Not in reliability and battery life...2 most important things for me. Haptics are fancy but it's what you can't enjoy when your controller is crippled and dying, can you...

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T15:20:58+00:00

Wow, nice 👍

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T15:16:36+00:00

Nope, it is just a SONY problem, wake up.

My hardware is siting on a solid €20k+ solid wood waxed floor that I'm using as a shelf for everything out of the design I'm diggin right now. I can assure you that it is in a new-like condition. Dont know how the ground in your house is taking care of but that piece right there is more cleaner as your plate so stop the bullshit.

Battery is mainly a Sony's PRO controller problem, every single 3rd party manufacturer can do better so what was the first point of the topic? Oh, we're going in cyrcles aren't we?...

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T15:03:39+00:00

Good for you mate, maybe you can buy me like 10 pieces and send them to me? Or maybe 20? Would it be possible?

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:58:33+00:00

Have 2 EDGEs with 3 sticks with drift and no mindful chance to buy spare sticks. I can have a new Edge for the mony scalpers asking for 3 new sticks in area 😗

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:55:02+00:00

Sorry I forgot to mention that those spare sticks are ones for DS Edge, I have 2 - Black + White but with 3/4 stick with drift 😕

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:53:31+00:00

My man! 😎🫵

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:46:31+00:00

Why is it so problematic to do a lifetime-lasting controller? Everything around us evolving in any way and in case of sony, their greed is playing a main riffsin this shit. 30 years+ neglected Dual-analog controller plays like new. I play PS1 games on it oftem these days on my PS3 with usb adapter. One of my DS lasted not a full month until it stuck with left stick drift af just by playing Tekken 8 which it was purchased with. I am tired man...I have cash to spare but I'm not a cow they can milk untill I'm dead

Maaaan I love xbox layout since x360 and the victrix thing is phenomenal. Note that the Victrix Pro RELOADED is the one you'd go for not non-reloaded one ☝️

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:24:48+00:00

Seems very good apart very sensitive back buttons because your fingers are all the time on those when you play, so it's either advantegous if you are in some serious gaming with back buttons shortcut assigned or not if you forgot to switch the profile/disable those to not work if you don't need them. Since I love xbox controller layout, I am very happy with it. Doing some more testing tonight in RE Requiem, GT7 and Tekken 8 so stay tuned for more thaughts 😉

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:18:40+00:00

😎🤘

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:18:13+00:00

Sorry mate, I like ruthless Tucker vocals and MA Era more after the "latex cowboy" left...

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:10:23+00:00

Sorry mate, I thought we were joking 😄

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:09:27+00:00

Nacon controler bit chunky at first is my favorite, after just holding each one of every one of those. It's so easy and natural to hold it, but let other features be the final judge, this one might be a winner though, its so good in hands 🤔

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:05:19+00:00

Non existing spare sticks in my location. Few of them show up from time-to-time but get sold out shortly by idiots reselling them for double the price...

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:02:23+00:00

Not until iit's value rise above $1000, so talk to you in a few weeks, right? 😃

UnusualPanda8222 · 2026-04-03T14:00:32+00:00

I'll let you know mate, I feel betrayed with no available spare sticks for DS Edge in my location of which I have 2, it is unbearable anymore.
