How many controllers do you have?

[jrbabbitt]

Just curious to how many of us here have multiple controllers. When I was using my PS4 I had 5 controllers, 4 on charge as I used the fifth and I rotated them as I used them.

Four (white, red, camo, and purple). Use one until it is about to die, plug it in and rotate in the next one.

I am on a wheel for GT but figure the question was open ended.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

Just the one for me, it's no problem to play with it plugged in whilst it's charging (I quite like a wired controller) and I won't get another until this one is not working properly, luckily they seem to last a long time compared to some of the older generations.

 

[Thorson1987]

I have 2 and just rotate them.

But I have had to replace the 2 original ones that I got in 2020 within the last 12 months.

 

[CTznOfTime]

I don't play enough to justify more than 2, plus the wheel pedal PSVR2 setup...

So 2 for now

 

[RX-7_FD3S]

You arent specifying for what system so I have more than 20 between my supernes, saturn, dreamcast, neogeo, ps1,2,3,4,5 and 2 xbox 360. Per console I have at least 2, but for some I have more like I have two arcade pads for dreamcast, ps2, 3, 4 and 5, two wheel+pedals for simracing, and a bunch of controllers for pc + 2 vr controller as well.

Oh and yes they all works.

 

[ZevZoq]

for the PS5 I have 2 DS5s and the G29 wheel.

 

[BGreenFace]

For now I have 3
The white one that came with my ps5 + Midnight Black + cosmic Red (Looks more like the Porsche/BMW color ruby star to me)
I know they are on sale RN so debating getting a Light blue one…

 

[Dave A]

I have one, and sometimes I have to charge it back up before I play, which is annoying. But the once a month use doesn't warrant buying a second.

 

[snowman_pr]

One each for my PS2 and PS3, two for my PS4 and three for my PS5. The PS5 being my main they get rotated as they run out of lithium juice.

2 and the same for my PS4. Same deal as you, one on charge while I use the other.

 

[kjb]

I have 2 for my PS that I rotate. I usually don't switch until I get the message saying the battery is low. I plan getting 2 more controllers so I can play Sonic Racing Crossworlds with my kids in 4 player split screen

 

[JoaoSilva]

I have 1, a Dualsense Edge. I've had it since launch day and it never failed me.

It feels really nice to up/downshift with the back paddles and it's also useful for other games I play.

I don't mind playing with the controller plugged in so I don't feel the need to get another controller.

 

[Bogie 19th]

I have 3 PS5 controllers and 3 XSX controllers.

I have DS that came with my PS5 Pro, but I didn't use it because I was using my DS Edge. But I stopped using my DS Edge because the battery life is disgusting. I ended up buying the Icon blue PS5 controller to match my blue Elite 2 controller.

 

[Tommy_D]

Just the original controller that came with the PS5, but the left stick is a bit goofy and likes to pull to the left. I think I need to hit it with some compressed air and try to clean out the contacts.

 

[jrbabbitt]

Thanks for the great responses, just curious on how the Edge is, better or not for GT7?

 

[SuperSportX]

Just one for now, though I will have 2 when I upgrade to a PS5 Pro in a few months.

 

[BGreenFace]

It feels really nice to up/downshift with the back paddles and it's also useful for other games I play.

I was wondering the other day if we could map it that way.
Was is it hard to get use to change from the buttons shift?

 

[afc5150]

Just the one that came with my PS5 in January 2023. I always leave it plugged in as I switch between setups a lot.

 

[RadishTM]

G29 wheel, one DS controller each for my PS3/4/5 and one Elite and two standard controllers for my Xbox 360/One.

 

[shadow0460]

Five Dual Sense and the two Sense controllers that came with Call of the Mountain. I also have a wheel I haven't set up yet.

 

[Grayfox]

I have the original(White) one which is now used on my PC
I have a newer black one which is solely used for the PS5.

 

[SPDN Stefano]

I have five DualSense controllers but only use two. I don't like having to use second hand controllers that are full of skin flakes and Doritos dust so I have a couple spares. Worst case scenario you can always sell brand new first party controllers really well once they are out of production.

 

[JackalJDM]

3 PS4, 3 PS3 and one PS1. The PS1 controller has lasted since 1997 and is the original no stick controller, while 2 of my PS3 are broke. I am relying solely on this one knock off DS3 because I did not buy spares. And two of my PS4 are broke....


...I blame the cat.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Three for the PS5, if you count a G29. Bought the Costco God of War (still unopened) bundle that came with a second DualSense (Starlight Blue) and a charging dock. 😐👍

 

[OldandSlow]

Two. I bought a spare, but have never needed to use it.

 

[Fezzik]

Three - the normal Dualsenses that came with my launch day system and the Pro, plus an Edge. I only use the Edge for GT7 as I find it awkward now to shift without the back paddles. Rotate all 3 for other games to save on stick and trigger wear.

 

[IngRobNy]

I have one, got tired of buying new controllers for worn left stick, so I bought a Dualsense Edge, easy change of stick modules when needed, charging it with my laptop, so no need for 2.

 

[jrbabbitt]

Just upped my collection to three, the white Dualsense that came with the PS5, I bought a blue DS and charging stand, just got a red DS (on sale black friday).
So now I have two on charge and one in hand...
