Forums - Gaming Discussion - How many controllers have you broken?

I broke one of my PS3 controllers when I tried to back flip of my bed, alcohol was involved, totally worth it

None. I don't throw a fit like a baby when I lose at a game.



I've got gamer rage but, I learned how to direct it toward the game. Thus, I have never broken a controller from getting pissed. Though one time I set a 30 pound weight on my bed and then it rolled off and defeated a Playstation controller. Worst of all it was when I bought several nostalgia titles. (such as Crash Bandicoot 3)



You guys, looks like the Angry Video Game Nerd



MY ZELDA COLLECTION

I broke 1 N64 controller (wore out the analog stick), and 1 powerpad (for the NES). Other than that, I've never broken a controller. I don't see the point of throwing away my hard earned money.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

none from anger (i play for fun)... but 2 or 3 due to intense usage...



Proudest Platinums - BF: Bad Company, Killzone 2 , Battlefield 3 and GTA4

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.



None. Im just that dam good. lol jk but i havent broken any cause I think about my money.



Several original Xbox controllers, and the X button on one of my 360 controllers clicks and the RB on my other clicks. Which is like incredibly annoying.



 

Have only worn out a couple. Breaking a controller out of anger is like throwing your money away.
