If they did that, they wouldn’t sell more controllers

8.8billion isn’t because nobody bought controllers.

Also. Remember when consoles came with 2 controllers? What morons. They could have sold so many more controllers. Also good thing those controllers still work.

Not sure what you are trying to say….

I’m saying controllers that don’t last years and years contributes to the 8.8b model hey made over the last holiday season because people will buy more controllers when theirs wears out or stops working
