Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

This guy will have to wait for his younger brother.

It was available to buy starting noon local time. I refreshed the page until the buy option became available, but kept getting an error when submitting payment. Waited about half an hour and now it's sold out. Ni modo I guess.

I was getting an error as well. I saw someone on Reddit say they just spammed the "confirm" button and it eventually went through.

So I did that for like 10 min and it worked

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 4 points 6 days ago

Yeah giving up for 30 mins probably wasn't the right move. You just keep trying even when it isn't working at all. I've gotten some great concert tickets that way.

I have mine still. Bought it at launch. Never went back. Best controller I've ever had the pleasure to use. I genuinly LOVE everything about it. I don't even want the new one.

Can't improve upon perfection

[–] AnanasMarko@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

... except for the rumble. Worst rumble by far, holy shit. But wonderfull controller otherwise, love mine so much.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 days ago

I don't really like much rumble to begin with so for me it's great. But I can see why some don't like it

[–] early_riser@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Honestly I wish they had kept the upturned grips. Those felt really comfy.

[–] Frikisada@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I've had 2 different ones, and both got the "R1" button broken. It's a pity because it's the best controller I've ever used

[–] randomdeadguy@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I have repaired this myself at least 4 different times. The piece is so flimsy. Still love this controller.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

I'll sorry to hear that. I suppose I've been fortunate enough to never have any issues at all with mine. I will be a sad day when it gives up. I don't think I could play Elden Ring with any other controller.

My quest to not ever have one is right on track.

[–] LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyz 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Nah, I'm currently printing a undergravel for a six gallon round Koller fish tank. Much more fun.

[–] Anaeijon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I retired the payment for about 15 times with 2 in my order basket, then it worked and should be here next week.

[–] Vex_Detrause@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 days ago

Anaeijon will receive 30 controllers by next week
