Does anybody know where I can buy the original xbox controller, I don't like the s controller and my original is starting to malfunction. It's a long story but I have one of each and yesterday was the first time I tried to use the s controller, I'm just too used to the big one.

Re: Original xbox controller
EB or Gamestop should sell the used original controller. If all else fails, Ebay should hook you up.http://neverfollow.biz (Independent Music Group) -

Re: Original xbox controller
If you find one please post it here so I know where to look.
About two years ago I went to purchase another big controller and the merchant told me he didn't have any. He then tried to convince me that the S Controller was better.
"Why do you want the big controller?" he said. "It's so big and no one likes it. The S Controller is like the PS2 controller and better."
"But, I like the big controller," I said. "I'm more comfortable with it."
"Nah, you don't want that," he responded back to me as he pointed toward the S Controller. "No one has the big controller anymore. Microsoft isn't making them and all of the stores got rid of them. If you want a controller, you have to get the S Controller."
So I purchased it. Now, I walk into that store a year later and guess what I see inside. But, I didn't get upset because I think it's nice to have the S Controller since so many people prefer it. Whenever I play Halo Multiplayer or a sports game, the other person always uses the S Controller and I use the original big one. So it works out."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace
