Microsoft changed Bluetooth from Classic to BLE in their September 2021 firmware update, to much consternation.

Thanks. Yeah I know about that, I'm using an Xbox One controller which had never been used with an Xbox console. It came with my X1X but I left it in the box.

Even if it was updated, you can revert back to a previous firmware so it's all good.


Rolling back the firmware requires a console. It can't be done from the Windows 10/11 Xbox app. Just so everyone is aware.

Cool. Xbox One owners have been dutifully warned. :!:

One of the best invention for the Dreamcast - the WingmanSD - a real game changer.

I bought one because I heard a bunch of praise for them and sold it a week later. One of the cheapest feeling controllers I've ever used. Extremely lightweight. Plastic quality is subpar at best. Fit and finish were bad since the triggers didn't feel smooth at all, they felt scratchy to pull. Analog stick also felt cheap with a few small but noticeable hitches when moved in certain directions. I despised how loud the button presses were, too clicky for my taste. The only things I did like were the D-pad, shoulder buttons, and ergonomics. Everything else just gave the impression of a cheap, horribly overpriced product. Give me OEM Sega controllers any day, they feel so much more solid than the StrikerDC. I can't believe how popular these controllers have gotten because in terms of quality my experience with them was completely unacceptable.
