Oh so you like input lag, cool.

Oh no, 0.0015 seconds of input lag. I will never recover from this.

imagine having to charge your controllers every other hour you’re using it

Considering that my wireless controllers almost universally last for longer than I game, usually lasting for two full 8-ish hour sessions at a time, and that you can purchase special battery packs and charging stands that make charging the controller as easy as setting it down in a certain spot when you're done, and that input lag on wireless controllers is miniscule enough that to notice it at all you would have to be playing at world championship levels, and even then the odds are rather miniscule that you'll notice a difference?

Honestly, I don't have a dog in this fight, I use both depending on what I'm doing, but the whole 'imagine charging every couple of hours' argument has always really bothered me. If your battery only lasts two hours, put that in the electronics recycling box and get a new battery, it's essentially dead.

Edit: Also, as an aside, neither of those controllers are wired. Looks like she's 'tied up' with ribbon, or more likely given the collar(?) on her neck, a ribbon leash.

That's a wireless controller, ya schmuck. She's tied with a ribbon or leash.

I like how everyone is arguing over a controller while i'm over here like "What is that black panel like thing on the wall?"

I think it's just a door...

Why this look like the furniture section of a store?

Input lag is why I still use CRT's for my older systems, even the slightest input lag is noticeable if you've played a game long enough
