Hi all. I've been thinking; why is the chatpad, wireless receiver etc listed here more prominently than in Xbox 360 Accessories? To me it would make sense to transfer the info for all the accessories to the accessories page, and maybe have a short paragraph on this one linking to them. It sort of makes sense to have the battery packs here, but would still be better in the accessories article. I therefore suggest that we merge the accessories section into Xbox 360 accessories.

xbox 360 controllers need copper instead of metal contact clips for its contact with the controller because batteries nver contact and they are in different shapes and sizes in the industry.

So as to avoid an edit war, here is a more detailed reason why the "modification" section is inappropriate.
If it makes it any clearer, adding this in is equivalent to discussing how some people fit custom speakers or get custom paint jobs in the article for a particular model of car; it is irrelevant and unencyclopædic. If there were any particular reason to mention it (e.g. a car model is popular with modding communities due to how it is constructed or its price or whatever) then that'd be a different matter, but AFAIK there is no such reason to justify this being in here. .

The battery packs are broken. They are built wrong, except i fixed this solution by taping a thin small strip of electrical tape around the usb pin connecter and removing the yellow plastic (optional). There you have it, no more buying replacement recharble batteries. The electrical input travels to the end of the cord and the tape holds it in the input slot so it never slides out or gives a bad signal. Now your controller acts as a common cord one.
Also masking the tape around the fat bendable portion of the pin's plastic(not skinny because it will choke the electrical signal) so the corner (elastic elbow) doesn't bend also helps much. This alone stops the sliding of the pin or bad signal contact when the rechargeable is worn. Of course i took it a step further, opened and twined the positve neg usb wires because of a faulty connection within the device. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Asfd666 ( talk • contribs) 07:17, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

The title of this article, "Xbox 360 Controller", contains an error. It should have been "Xbox 360 controller" (we need to lowercase the capital C). Otherwise, is the name of the controller entirely a proper noun?
