No controllers broken to the point where they no longer worked. And I've owned/bought dozens over the years.

For a lot of my secondary systems (every generation, one console seems to see the most use) I never had to buy a second controller.

Plus I tend to buy replacement controllers for the consoles I do use regularly and the old ones become secondary controllers or "retired" to the giant bin of unused controllers, cables and peripherals.

My original Six Axis controller has a cracked case but still works fine. It's well worn but currently sees next to no use (it's a third controller).

My original Wii Remote no longer has the little clips that hold the battery cover in place (broke off), but the controller sheath does.

I can't recall any controller actually crapping out on me come to think of it. That can't be right though.
