Roy Wang Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 My Xbox 360 controllers (wireless) have batteries. When we bought the game system, It obviously came with a white controller. We've had the controller for 2 years (3 years in December). Lately the controller has been disconnecting. Like yesterday, my brother changed the batteries for it, and the controller kept disconnecting still? And we checked to see the battery level and it was still fully charged. What's wrong with it? Is it just the controller? Should we buy a new one? ________________ ds charger wii dual charger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melthris Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 You should probably be saving yourself an arm and a leg by getting a recharge kit for your controllers. In terms of durability, it really boils down to how the controller is used by the user. If it is thrown against the wall repeatedly, dropped, stepped on, etc then it will start to wear and tear. These controllers are designed to be incredibly durable but like all technology, over use/age will lead to a general deterioration and potential compromised integrity That being said, 2-3 years isn't that long but it could be faulty if it keeps losing its ability to pair up with your Xbox 360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiQuid BioniX Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I'm also a big fan of wired controllers. I have much fewer problems with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melon0111 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Your battery may be disconnecting from the controller. If someone dropped the controller or battery then it is very likely that the battery pack just doesnt stay in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Oracle Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 The plastic on the pack or on the controller is most likely worn down enough for the pack to not fit correctly Sudden movements will disconnect it This happens to my Halo 3 legendary controller a lot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancer Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I always have to rotate controllers. Mostly because I rub the rubber padding off the joysticks from playing so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I tend to replace min after a few years just for some unknown reason. It feels better to have a new controller in my hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
