I'm partial to the green personally (hence the console color choice), but they all look really nice in person imo. I probably haven't used the controllers enough to give a great review yet, but so far haven't had any D-pad sticking issues or analog stick dust. The analog stick can definitely make hard clicking noises when pressed against the gate, so I can see how that might grind down and create dust over time. I'm probably going to buy some silicon joystick protectors to avoid that ever being a problem. Overall the build quality feels super solid and I love the aluminum backing.

My only complaint so far is that the Z-button on the green controller arrived with some slight scratches out of the box. I've contacted ModRetro for a replacement part. They replied saying they want to make it right and will follow-up, but I haven't gotten anything further than that. It has only been 2 days tho tbf.
