To be honest it worked pretty well from the start. But after a few days my stick started drifting, that's the whole reason I bought a new controller. It was manageable but I didn't think anything of it, but THEN the whole remote stopped responding, none of my buttons registering. It would drop out for 4-5 seconds, then drop out entirely, and when it came back all my inputs were severely delayed. I say 2-3 seconds. All in all a great prank or gag controller. Just buy one at Walmart instead.
