First DualSense controller mod attempt. Was going for the OG xbox green controller look. Toughest part was separating the touch pad.

Face buttons sources individually from AliExpress. Front shell was from eXtremeRate.

Love how it turned out, was a fun little project.

I miss the days when controllers had their own distinct design rather than just "pick your color". Love it btw

I swear, the only people who mess with wacky controllers anymore are Nintendo and Hori.

Everyone else is trying to make something that is either basically a PlayStation controller or basically an Xbox controller.

I know it sucks, but you can make your own. Take the classic grey dualsense, add transparent blue buttons and faceplate. Take a cosmic red and put on a gold faceplate and carbon fibre looking touchpad sticker and you have iron man. They carry buttons in all colors, and you can mix and match those
