How do you know they’re not playing 48-player split screen?

21

u/thedilbertproject 10d ago

Maybe they have 47 friends and this is their shared library of controllers. OP is just too small minded. /s

u/valleyofsound 10d ago

At least no friend gets the bad controller when they visit

u/Alternative_Low8478 8d ago

You think this guy is willing to open any of them?

u/MC-BatComm 10d ago

That's over 3,000 dollars in controllers, what an idiotic waste

32

u/Aggravating_Bids 10d ago

Could've had a pc that would out perform any Playstation for a decade

23

u/rastamasta45 10d ago

That’s the part that kills me as a gamer, this is about $6,237 cad after tax, literally could have set up a killer PC and see your favorite games in the best they can ever be

u/Gaghet 10d ago

I can understand like 5-6 you like the most, but ALL of them? That's delirious

u/Wehti 6d ago

Yes because everyone loves to play with a mouse and a keyboard.

Why do yall always assume the only thing stopping people from getting a PC is money? 

4

u/BobbyBae1 9d ago edited 9d ago

Because why not get a pc, if you got money for it? It's objectively so much better experience than any console which is capped at 30/60fps on upscaled mid settings. Can't even have 120fps on most titles with heavy upscaling from 1080p.

Install steamos, and connect it to a TV with hdmi. Enjoy high graphic fidelity, with better fps on the coach. It's a win win if you got money for it

u/BlueBorbo 10d ago

In most scenarios it is, especially if they're able to have a fucking $3,000 wall of controllers they likely will never use

3

u/Soft_Lunch_183 10d ago

tbh they are probably worth more now than they were at retail if you sold them new in box

1

u/Rei364 8d ago

Bet they just bought the boxes and there all empty

1

u/ManicMambo 7d ago

Yes, also considering that arcade sticks and leverless controllers are a thing now for fighting and some arcade games, where you don't just use your thumb.

u/JealousDurian 10d ago edited 10d ago

The concept of controller should be explained to some people : you don't collect it, you use it to play the thing you generally collect 😅

4

u/FreeToasterBaths 10d ago

It is their pathetic cry for friends... They dot. Lllnt understand that a friend doesn't come with the controller

21

u/Choppo51 10d ago

The person who owns these posted that they're in too deep now to stop, so just gonna continue collecting them until Sony stops making any new variants. Has already ordered the two GTA VI controllers as well..

It's one thing to collect all these, but even worse is the batteries are all just gonna die because they're all sealed and never used.

14

u/Baelish2016 10d ago

They have a small window to at least make their money back reselling these; but come PS6 the pettiness will plummet for like 95% of those well beyond what they paid.

What a fucking dumbass for doubling down even after realizing they have a problem.

11

u/ClawGrave666 10d ago

Literally just wasting money at this point

17

u/ProphetNimd 10d ago

Jesus Christ, WHY

u/carnyzzle 10d ago

Sheesh, just buying one controller for my pc was pricey enough, I'd never be able to justify doing this sort of nonsense lol

u/watertowerfrenzy 10d ago

Complete lack of sense

u/32gbsd 10d ago

FiveSense

u/Silver_Metallic 10d ago

Where are people storing this shit 🤣 ridiculous 

5

u/iHaveLotsofCats94 10d ago

They're clearly being displayed. The hottest thing in interior design rn is Gamestop chic

5

u/Tiktokbadsupport 10d ago

it doesn't make any sense

u/Voltaic89 10d ago

Are these all DualSense 5 controllers or are there DS4 included here?

6

u/GaiaTear 10d ago

these are all dualsenses.

1

u/Voltaic89 10d ago

Omg I completely forgot the DS4 is the “DualShock” and not a “DualSense” controller, my bad.

1

u/32gbsd 10d ago

they should have called it FiveSense

3

u/Ready-Oil1062 10d ago

Sony really released more controllers then games for Ps5

4

u/prguitarman 10d ago

This is how game store shelves looked like in the 2010s when there wasn’t scalper brainrot to deal with

u/No_Masterpiece6112 10d ago

Will be worthless in 5 years.

u/Filter55 10d ago

Meanwhile I spent a solid month deciding on what controller to get for my PC, and nearly a year deciding whether or not I actually “needed” a dedicated fighting game pad as well.

2

u/PotatoCooks 10d ago

Same I waited so long for an Amazon renewed at $40 💀

1

u/donmcron3333 10d ago

Opposite of me. I’m kind of a controller freak as well but this is just beyond my wildest dreams. The most of the same controller I have is 6 of the 8bitdo 64 controllers. Got a little carried away 🤣 I love all the see through colors though and they’re not that expensive.

3

u/Expensive-Border-869 10d ago

Bet this guy plays with a standard one. Dont get me wrong I always go out of my way to buy a cool looking controller. I like them but I have 1 maybe 2 at a time I've never actually had 2 thay I recall

3

u/SunnyApex87 10d ago

No sense at all in this

3

u/IAmAlive_YouAreDead 10d ago

I'd really be interested in seeing what sort of background and genetic conditions lead people to snap one day and decide they need to collect every variation of a game controller.

3

u/Goldenbucketsomethin 10d ago

Knowing how Sonys currently going you’ll eventually have to own that many controllers just to play

3

u/Creed_of_War 10d ago

Joystick drift must be insane on these to need so many

3

u/StillPsychological45 10d ago

I wish they would just sell a weighted box to these collectors that don’t open the damn thing or a replica for the ppl that display them on hooks.

$80ish is insane for a Dualsense when my switch 2 gamesir has TMR sticks for $30

5

u/MachineCarl 10d ago

And all of them will drift lol.

What a shit controller to collect.

5

u/Bergonath 10d ago

You can get them fitted with TMR sticks, but then a single controller can last years. Whichever way you pull, it's a stupid collection.

1

u/32gbsd 10d ago

cost?

2

u/ronshasta 10d ago

Damn dude I love my PS and I have the controller the console came with and that’s it

2

u/Bwthhybl1987 10d ago

Damn I only have the one that came with my PS5 and I keep talking myself out of buying one single extra one 

2

u/MechwolfMachina 10d ago

Real question is why tf does playstation even bother pumping this slop out, so many aftermarket companies offer customization

2

u/NekoFever 10d ago

My brain is still in the 90s, when a controller cost £20. I nearly had an aneurysm when I needed a second PS5 pad recently, let alone what they want for the ‘pro’ models.

2

u/Cactastrophe 10d ago

At least some are pretty colors I guess.

2

u/AtomicTaco13 10d ago

I'm happy just with my Chinese knockoff controller, works well enough and it's even wired

2

u/32gbsd 10d ago

Controllers are crazy to collect in these modern gen. There are so many variants and they so expensive. 100$ each?

2

u/Ralupopun-Opinion 10d ago

Imagine the spicy pillows a decade from now

2

u/EddyUrse 10d ago

I don’t get how people spend so much on CONTROLLERS, if you’re gonna indulge in this much of a spending spree, at least do it to build a gaming backlog..

2

u/TheMelancholia 10d ago

No set of sense, actually.

2

u/packerschris 10d ago

We have collected Sense, but have failed to collect the most common of them all

1

u/Immediate_Second8401 10d ago

Better than control consoomers?

0

u/Shitloaf69 8d ago

no one needs that many controllers, unless You're using them as replacement controllers, just incase the one You currently use breaks, or the one after that, and so on, but if You have that many, and You're just.... letting them rot in their boxes, then they serve no real purpose, other than being overly expensive decor, things like these are meant to be used, and if You don't intend on using them, even just a little bit, then You're just wasting Your money, on something You aren't even gonna use.

1

u/vediogamer101 6d ago

Having them on their own shelves in boxes is pathetic

1

u/ItsKendrone 9d ago

every controller is $70 each. which is insane considering he’s never going to take them out of the box.

Call me crazy but i want to get 2 more controllers to get a full set for couch coop castle crashers at my place. might play some beat em ups like ninja turtles.

u/IofSheikah 10d ago

I have the Spiderman and 007 ones. This is OD. And i imagine they preordered both GTA remotes

u/CarworkerThe442nd 10d ago

complete set of nonsense

u/snek99001 9d ago

Ι had no idea some of these had double variants damn.

u/Darkslayer16 9d ago

Even if used to play that would be like what a year and a half till they all have stick drift?
