Microsoft to sell black & purple Xbox 360 chrome controllers in March

4.5
Microsoft has announced two new chrome controllers for Xbox 360, coming in black and purple flavours.

Microsoft’s Larry ‘Major Nelson’ Hryb revealed the pads over on his blog last night.

Hryb confirmed that the controllers feature a “transforming d-pad” and will launch in March at $54.99. They’ll be available exclusively at US Best Buy stores and the Microsoft store. There’s currently no word on a wider European release.

Folk why wouldn't they bring out xbox one controllers. No need for 360 controllers anymore.


There are still more 360 users, that's why. Such an ignorant comment.


That comment is not ignorant at all. There are many 3rd party companies that released controllers like that for the 360 over the years. Microsoft needs to now focus on releasing new stuff for the xbox one. There isn't as much 3rd party support because its new.


Seeing as you do not understand marketing, nor finance, you have no credibility here. It is always better business to produce for those who are making more money for your company, than to only go for the new products. Once more consumers purchase Xbox ONEs, Microsoft will produce more hardware for it. Until then, it makes no sense. Your comment and his comment are ignorant.

These look cool, I'd like a red and black one though.

So Microsoft eventually caught up with what people were doing on eBay 5 years later,
Still cheaper to get the shell

These look nice.. I wouldn't ever get one though. Chrome controllers end up with marks all over them and just deteriorate from what you originally receive quite quickly.

About time, but its still cheaper to do it yourself or get a shell of ebay. They are a bit late with this
