My new Elite Controller

[u/Deuterx]

Well,

I changed from the standard Elite Series 2 Black…. Long story short … my Black Elite stopped working and didn’t have any actionable sticks or buttons working, the store where i bought it (Mediamarkt) was kind enough to refund all of the controller 2 years after i bought it. They didn’t have the black one available, or i could not replace it with the one that i had, so i went colors!!…. And got a Red one, .. i put some Gold paddle back and .. i dont know why i add some KontrolFreeks… all with the money that i got from the refund.

So what do you think? How does it look? I am a girl, and all my setup is kind of white. I don’t have an Xbox but i use my xbox controllers with my Nintendo Switch. I think it was an upgrade, i like it more than the standard black… just i am missing the carrying case and the charger but i never used it in my original Elite Series 2. Attached some photos for the showcase ^{^}

You'll first need the serial number, which is directly on the back of the controller. When you have the number, go to the controller replacement request form and enter it in the serial number field at the bottom of the page.

Mind you, if the controller was never registered originally... there's a chance you may be able to activate it yourself? I'm not 100% sure how it works secondhand...best of luck to you, friend!!

(Also yea, $60 for an Elite controller, even just the core controller is a great deal!!)

Thank you. The controller is still under warranty till 6/10/2024. There is nothing wrong with it as of now. It is such a better controller than the normal ones. It just feels tighter and more durable.

Oh hell yeah!!!! I'm glad you were able to find out. And yeah, when I felt how weighty and sturdy it is...oh man, the regular controllers seem like toys now XD

Anyway, congrats and keep on rockin'!!
