I've spent $165 twice on two different customized controllers

I'll buy M$' customizable controller day 1

They're NOT for casual players.

Your soo hardcore bro.

You're so hardcore about your grammar.

I don't claim to be hardcore.

I do, however, play a LOT of video games and understand there's a demographic of players who really want a customized controller from a 1st party and not from a company like Scuf, hecontrollershop, battlebeaver, etc.
 
I see it as a serious basketball player buying sneakers. If I was serious I'm not going to buy $50 shoes. I'm getting the best that fits my style and that's usually not cheap

Brah that is not excuse

$150+ from a small company is reasonable because margins don't work in their favor.

MS has economies of scale working for them

Dude a company's main goal is to profit.

U mean to tell me if you sold something for 300% profit and it sold you would consider making 200% profit?

I dont know their costs / profit / margins, I bet they'd make me sick.

But it IS their goal..

First off I know what the main goal is of a company. Not need to get condescending

But if you wanna go down that road, fine:

100*500000= 50 Million

150* 300000= 45 million

When price the controller so high that a good number of people won't even consider it, when that could lend to lower profits

This should have been pushed as "THE" controller to get for anyone playing shooter or racers. Not for some niche group of people that consider themselves "hardcore"

Do people really play PvsZ on console like that? I use to play it on my phone to kill time but would never think to play it on console.

I have tried to explain this in a different thread on a different subject. Its like magic to people who didnt take an intro econ class

Hey my bad if i came off condescending.. not my goal. I want to have an intellectual convo :lol:

If i'm not mistaken, in a case like this, M$ distributes them to other retailers, right?

Meaning they profit whether they sell in-store or not.

They only profit off sales if its from their website / M$ Store.

idk idk

i see your point about making it THE controller vs. what they're marketing as a "pro" edition.

But gamers (especially younger cats) are very marketable :lol:

I brought my xbox over to my folks house and my 14 year old brother and all his friends thought my controller was so "swag 420 yolo" because it has under buttons modded on it like their favorite FaZe clan member.

All those kids now have a "cheaper" option because its cheaper than the competition, and theres not Nike iD waiting time

IMO either way, M$ is making a KILLING
 
Oh good, the American announcing team again.
