What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The controller s is what shipped with all the japanese xbox systems. For people that really like the original, it's still here, and for people that want something a little different, there's now an alternative to those (kind of cheesy) non-microsoft c... Read More
A brand new controller for people with smaller hands. The smaller size fits perfectly in my hands. It also fits well in just about anyones hands.
My favorite controller of all time is this amazingly great xbox controller s. Perfect is all i can say in a nutshell. It is worth it and you will love it.

If microsoft could lower the price on these i'd buy three more.
Packaging/appearance

Not only was it tiring on the wrists, but the d-pad was oddly shaped causing awkwardness in games that used it.
The back and start buttons are just to the left of the d-pad instead of the middle thus making it possible to pause without hav... Read More
Competitiveness
Pros:arrived faster than expectedvery good conditionworkingcons:dirtya button was a bit sticky
I didn't really think that a smaller controller would make much of a diffrence but as soon as i tried it it was so much better ... Read More
The four main face buttons are more spaced out and laid out in a much more managable diamond configuration.
