This could actually be very useful. For example if your controller is completely covered in some sort of industrial lubricant that tape won't stick to, then you can pay this guy and he'll have to clean it so he can tape it. Now you have a clean controllet

Could also be useful because he claims to tape all your controllers. So if you've lost some, call up this guy and he'll locate every controller in your house to bring them all together in a taped mass.

Damn you still have a SuperScope. Extremely jealous of your collection. I use an 8bit snes controller as my main PC one. Feels perfect for me. Even more than ps5/xbox. Too bulky!

Oh no, I just linked the photo for a joke. I’m just as envious of their massive collection as you are. The only interesting controller I own is a fighting stick.

Oh good then I can say that it bothers the hell out of me that this person didn’t group the same controllers together. Also don’t know why he has 5 NES controllers

I got the vague impression that their collection occupied more space than intended. Between reorganizing shelves upon the ground and limited space, the “this is taking longer than expected” factor kicked in and decided the end.

It smells wrong. I mean, the megatron doesn't say "Urban free-wheelers", it says "Sofa masturbaters", you know?
