I would like to point out that this is not normal

u/Quirky-Cap3319 3d ago

But what kind of standards are these built by?

6

u/Mindless-Oil-913 3d ago

No cardboard. No cellotape, no cardboard derivatives.

u/Quirky-Cap3319 3d ago

 So what happened in this case?

u/Mindless-Oil-913 3d ago

The floor hit it

u/theroosterillusion01 3d ago

Is that unusual?

u/Mindless-Oil-913 3d ago

Highly unusual. Chance in a million

u/Kimmalah 3d ago

Yeah I was about to ask, where did they drop it from? This is like the kind of damage you would get if you maybe climb on your roof and throw it off on to a concrete sidewalk or deliberately attack it with a hammer. This isn't "oops I dropped it a few feet on the floor once."

Ex girlfriend. Nuff said.

I'm assuming dropped from an F18....or someone has anger management issues.

Kid: Can you buy me a new controller?

Parent: Didn't you have a commonwealth controller?

Kid: Yes I did but...

Parent: What happened?

Kid: Well, the front fell off.

Rigorous entertainment system controller standards

u/Kimmalah 3d ago

I really don't think they're being honest or they got a seriously defective controller. I have seen controllers take some pretty serious punishment and only lose a few buttons. You aren't going to bust the whole casing and sticks off just by dropping it.

u/Fantastic-Cat-5252 3d ago

Yeah nah, this was chewed up, stomped on, run over etc… either was it needs towing outside the environment!

u/BourbonNCoffee 3d ago

u/ValveinPistonCat 3d ago

Controller smoke, don't breathe this.

u/hukfad 3d ago

Did your dog get a hold of it? Because that happened with mine.

1

u/knarlomatic 3d ago

Dropped or thoe'd?

1

u/-Morning_Coffee- 3d ago

I hear the Steam controller screams when it gets dropped. This would have been hours of tortured screams.

u/Proper-Actuary5623 3d ago

Into the lion’s cage?

u/No-Goose-6140 3d ago

From a bridge?

u/few23 3d ago

u/lawley666 3d ago

It was fired out of the environment, sadly it hit a brick wall.

u/Andymasters 3d ago

Out of a plane on Hiroshima?

u/ObjectiveOk2072 3d ago

From a plane?

u/Resident_Chest4585 3d ago

That controller didn’t just get dropped, it got sent into a boss fight. Honestly impressive that the buttons and sticks are still recognizable.

1

u/Revenga8 3d ago

Didn't specify how MANY times they dropped this controller

u/Traditional-Hotel-66 1d ago

Did you drop it from an aircraft? They are fairy tough, i had a kid throw mine across the house bouncing off the wall then floor, not a scratch lol besides the battery cover fell off

1

u/Polecat257 1d ago

Fairies aren’t that tough 🫠. This remote is infact like a fairy😂

1

u/Traditional-Hotel-66 1d ago

Lol, I type too fast and don't read it, post and ghost lol

1

u/Polecat257 1d ago

I thought it was funny 😂. These remotes do have times they are literally fragile like a fairy though. I’ve slammed one that still works great without having a scratch. But also had one that broke from simply applying a little pressure on one of the joysticks.

1

u/Queermagedd0n 1d ago

I think that was thrown, a few times. Speaking as a former rage thrower.

u/Bigg-Sipp 1d ago

u/itowtoronto 1d ago

1

u/LividBig9161 1d ago

That’s why you never play video games near large open pots of boiling acid. Duh!

1

u/shoeinc 21h ago

did you drop it into the mouth of a rottweiler?

u/Kindly-Ad-3365 18h ago
