Wireless StrikerDC potentially coming out by end of July

Post by fraggle200 »

Not sure if Games Connection realised they were potentially announcing a wireless StrikerDC but given how credible a seller they are in the UK i'd be surprised if they were wrong.

Nice a wierless controller that breaks in under a half hour when they fixed the flawed triggers and anlog drift over sensitivity I will be getting one also fix the vmu berd and unbalanced nature of the thing with a jump pack and a vmu in it .. prolly chew threw power or the vmu part will not work..

The Brook Wingman is a better option for me.

I haven't had the terrible experience others have had with this controller. I will say it is quite average though, and feels better with some games over others. Can't use it with a jump pack though, as it just makes it too off balance, but a standard VMU/4X feels right. The only solution to having rumble with a modern form factor is to build it into the controller I'd guess.

After five(!) broken controllers, I'll have to wait until people have used this for more than a couple of hours. The trigger plastic has snapped on all but one of my controllers, so I've decided to model and 3D print new ones from now on, since the controller has been great otherwise.

If this is reasonably priced, I’m in for one. Always wanted a wireless Dreamcast controller

these are such ugly looking controllers , I've never really seen any issue with using the stock Sega controller. These ones just look like some churned out Mad Catz effort from circa 2000 that you'd get for free in a console bundle.
