Bought last year as a New Year's gift, since the joystick cover fell off, it was very inconvenient to use. The right trigger button also stopped working, making playing car games impossible. We're not usually a heavy gaming family, but this year, like most, we've been more at home. I was hoping it would last longer. Another oddity was that I could remove the batteries from the charger and they wouldn't work. But the normal ones worked fine.
