DualShock 4 Wireless Controller for PlayStation 4 - Berry Blue https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GQ6R2LR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i6MWBbJRP21VS

I've always been a fan of blue, but as I've gotten older, the shade I prefer has changed.

A great comparison is the PS4 controller I was considering and the one I bought.

I was considering the blue controller but saw the gray blue controller and liked it more, which also lines up more with how my preference has changed over the years.

I tend to prefer more subdued blues than the brighter blues I preferred when I was younger.

The controllers range from $39.00 to $44.99 depending on what controller you're buying and what site you're using. Free shipping for both sites.

Evecase 5.6 x 5.6 x 3.5 inch Camera Bag.
Chose this after trying too long to find a 3DS bag that didn't have horrible straps. $16 with Prime

Anker USB 3.0 4* USB tap.
Obviously, you need to have more than 1 USB port to do much, like using a mouse with a usb drive.
$9 with Prime.

Cable Matters Mini HDMI male to HDMI Female cable 2 pack.
Minor shaving required. Not tested extensively.
$10 with Prime.

Lexar USB 3.0 Micro SD Card Reader
If you want to use a ferry card or temporarily pop your card of choice into a computer, one of these is incredibly helpful. Plus it's tiny. You can probably get one cheaper if you don't want the 32GB card included.
$33 with Prime.

Standard XBOne Controller.
Works without any need to mess with dongles on Windows 10. It'll even work with headphones/sets.
$35-$50ish, depending on color and luck.

Venom Xbox One Rechargeable Battery Twin Pack.
I don't recommend these in particular, but a rechargeable pack is a must if you don't want to guzzle batteries.
$17 with Prime.

Logitech Wireless Mouse M185.
Pretty reliable, but only has the standard 2 mouse buttons plus tilting and clicking mousewheel. Receiver stores inside nicely.
$13 with Prime.

Kid Icarus Folding 3DS Stand That I Had In A Box.
Needs a little rubber bumper to help secure the Win properly.
$10 with Prime.

Perrix Asymetrical Folding Keyboard.
This one might be tough to find, but it works amazingly. The weird fold system pushes the main hinge off to the side, so it is less likely to fold the moment you put it on your lap. It also completely hides the hinge when the keyboard is unfolded. A bit cramped, but the keys are properly clicky laptop keys.
For image and model reference

Anker PowerCore 26800 Portable Charger*
While looking for my power pack, I found this one. Seems to be a flat upgrade. 26800mAh with 3
4.8A output USB ports. Also has 2 micro usb inputs for double the charge speed?
$59.99 with Prime.

Other possible pack-ins.

Bluetooth Numpads.
If you're primarily going to be gaming, you might want to drop the full keyboard in favor of a bit of space plus one of these. Works nicely with a mouse if you rebind with HIDMacros. Also more tiny airport/college desk friendly. Example unit is $30

Similarly, you might want to try a half controller + mouse option using a device like the
Nintendo Joy-Con's left unit. Drivers are still being worked on though, so only get this if you're up for beta troubles.
$50ish, but you can get lucky on eBay.

SanDisk Ultra Fit 128GB USB 3.0 flash drive.
The one in all the Win lists I've seen, but I figured I'd list it here for convenience.
$45 with Prime.

Batteries
All this stuff takes a total of 3 AAA (2 for the keyboard, 1 for the numpad) and 1 AA battery that will need replacing eventually. I hesitate to recommend rechargeable ones, as I have yet to find a micro charger for them.

Inateck USB 3.0 Ethernet + 3 USB 3.0 port adapter.
You might want to replace the 4 port one with one like this if you plan to do network maintenance, secure data transfer, or just plain download things quickly.

$20 with Prime.

PS4 Controller.
Some people prefer this to the XBOne one. It's lighter in the hand (and bag), comes with a built in rechargeable battery with absurd life, and has a touchpad with 4 physical buttons underneath. Can do some pretty crazy things with the touchpad via Steam's controller customization, but has weaker compatibility with non-Steam applications. Also works with PS4 Remote Play.
Worth noting that, unlike the ps3 controller, this can charge directly from any micro usb power supply. Headset support seems to require the official receiver dongle, sold separately.
Controller Alone: $40-60 Depending on color. Silver's cheapest.
Adapter Alone: $66
Controller + Adapter Bundle: $66

Budget 1 Handed Controller**
Hey, if you want to try 1/2 Controller + Mouse, why start off pricey?
$10

Phew, that's about all I have on hand.

u/joeTaco · 3 pointsr/bapcsalescanada

I've had literally three XB1 controllers break in 2-3 years, compared to a grand total of ZERO XB360 controllers in all my time with that console. Always the same thing - left analog stick starts to stick / becomes unresponsive. Two of em were out of warranty. The other one, I had to ship to Texas and then they replaced it with a different, inferior colour. I tried to do a fix for the thumbstick I found on youtube but it didn't work.

DualShocks are on sale too today. I'm giving the DS4 a shot rather than sinking more money down the Microsoft hole. It sucks because I love the feel of XB1 controllers and I bought the dongle but the joystick issue is just maddening.

u/onyxandcake · 3 pointsr/GirlGamers

Ah, k, that helps narrow down the field.

Frankly, the official PS4 controller is my favourite, and right now I'm completely in love with the Uncharted 4 Gray/Blue version

Edit: You could also buy a white one and paint it.

u/tapgiles · 3 pointsr/PS4Dreams

Yes, you'd need a PS camera also. And be sure to get 2 moves that both have the face buttons (as seen here) as opposed to one face-button move and one d-pad move like in the old PS3 days.

u/JonnyJamesC · 3 pointsr/PSVR

Haven't Argos got them in for 70 quid? Amazon got them for £70 by the looks of it. ShopTo had them in the other day for £68. Worth a look.

u/Bray4ever8 · 3 pointsr/PS4

Yeah they are and trust me you're not alone. Both Sony and Microsoft cut back on their controllers this gen and are using cheaper plastic parts. There are plenty of videos on youtube about it. If it's not breaking, you're not playing.

I've owned the OG PS4 and now the Pro and both controllers crapped out within a few months. I strongly recommend this one.

https://www.amazon.com/DualShock-Wireless-Controller-PlayStation-Wave-4/dp/B01MQGVH94?th=1

Someone recommended that one to me (blue controller) and knock on wood it's always worked without fail. You don't have to get it via Amazon. Best Buy, Walmart etc... also sell them.

Looks like there is a run on the Hori Pokken Pro Pad... guess you'll have to wait for the Nintendo Switch version.

http://www.gamestop.com/nintendo-switch/accessories/nintendo-switch-pokken-dx-tournament-pro-pad-controller/151190

I don't really have any other recommendations, other than the PS4 controller and a wireless dongle.

Own

PS4 Controller - Wave Blue: Great controller, no complaints. All of them are identical, but I do own a Wave Blue colored one.

Wireless Adaptor for PS4 Controller: Works great for me. Tried all those bluetooth dongles people use, but this has been the only thing that gives me 100% connection reliability.

Don't Own

Mayflash MAGIC-NS Universal Controller Adapter: This is just easier to find than the official PS4 controller wireless adapter, and looks a lot nicer, feature-wise.

Most Recommended, Cheap, and Still Better Than Others (That I Don't Own)

iBuffalo Controller (New Production): Might be better than the original run, but I don't own it, so I can't say for sure.

Full Console and Handheld Compatibility (That I Own)

Wii U Pro Controller: Is nice overall, but awkward to an Xbox 360/PlayStation 1/2/3/4 user, and I find the d-pad and face buttons a little on the small side.

PS3 Controller: Has an okay d-pad. Rest is fine.

Xbox 360 Controller: Has a terrible d-pad. Wireless dongles are prone to failure. Rest is fine.

Full Console and Handheld Compatibility (That I Don't Own)

8Bitdo Controllers: No opinion concerning them as I don't own any, but people around here seem to like them.

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller: Don't own it either. Compatible with RetroPie and Raspberry Pi's bluetooth, though I'd get Mayflash new universal wireless dongle I linked to earlier for it, to avoid the ghost inputs that happen over the Raspberry Pi's bluetooth.

Logitech Gamepad F310/F710: I did own the F310 at one point, but I didn't like the d-pad. F710 appears to use the exact same d-pad, with the added bonus of a wireless controller.

u/cteters · 2 pointsr/PS4Deals

Looks to be no according to the consensus of Amazon reviews. I think I will stick with DS4Windows. On another note, Amazon is having a Gen 2 DS4 controller sale for $40

u/Yorea · 2 pointsr/PS4

There are some, but they're quite shit to be honest. You can get a Gator Claw for the PS4 and there's a Hori one as well, but generally they're fairly poorly received I think.

Magma Red

Wave Blue

u/SnortWhoresFuckCoke · 1 pointr/DotA2

A trackpad can be used with your left middle finger if you hold it the right way and then you hold the right side normally to use all of the buttons. I would then hotkey the buttons as follows;

Dpad 4 item keys, remaining 2 items will be R2 and L2. X Sq. Cr. Tr. will all be Q W E R, D and F will be R3 and L3. Then you can hotkey the trackpad to right click rather than left click so you can move around. Then you can have the left stick to control the camera, turn of edge panning and you're all set to go.

Dragon Slay makes this controller intended for arcade fighting games like Street Fighter which would be the perfect controller to do all of this on as you won't need to hold it in such an unorthodox way.

u/dzmisrb43 · 1 pointr/PS4

Can i ask you for advice?

I really would like to be sure im buying real controller, do you think this is legit seller,im new to amazon and i don't know how to check if i can trust someone https://www.amazon.es/Dual-Shock-Silver-PS4-Japon/dp/B01M6CV5IF?SubscriptionId=AKIAIPHVZTVH6LZ5BFZA&tag=tech0ae4-21&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B01M6CV5IF&ascsubtag=trd-1450874432764923670-21

u/columboscoat · 1 pointr/RetroPie

Okay, I appreciate that. That seems fair. To be honest £18.99 seems like a decent enough deal to me. Just seems like it should be about 14/15 quid. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wired-MINI-Gamepad-PlayStation-Controller/dp/B076PPD3TJ

Charity links:

u/Overquoted · 1 pointr/GirlGamers

I haven't wanted skins, but I did pick up a new controller recently in an awesome color combo. This. I also recommend light bar decals/stickers like these. I've had my PS4 for a few years now and the decal I put on the default controller is still on it without issue. (I hated the light shining on my tv.)

Personally, I'd recommend replacement housing over a skin. Think there are also full housing kits that would give you different colored buttons. The controllers are pretty easy to take apart.

u/HeroesNeverQuit · 1 pointr/DIY

From reading the reviews the stick is small as are the buttons. I want a full size one similar to what they have on standup arcade machines. The madcatz seems to be smaller and also 200 dollars.

Thanks for the links though...

As for games its not just fighting games. I also want to use it for resogun and im sure there will be a few other digital arcade games that it would work great for. For fighting games though currently MK:X looks amazing. Guilty Gear XRD and Dead or Alive 5 also are on the console although I have never played either of those games but they look pretty good. They might make a Tekken or a Street fighter. Not to mention the psn now thing so I can get ps3 games.

EDIT: On a side note that is way out of my grasp on wiring or anything. Looks like ill be laying down 156 for the hori pad. http://www.amazon.com/HORI-correspondence-Arcade-controller-Pro-V4-Hayabusa/dp/B00JK9LQ78

Side note. So from the reviews on amazon it says the stick is either 100% or 0% so its more like a D-pad. Would replacing it make it possible to have it gradually go to 100% rather then 100-0?

u/Jailescape · 1 pointr/AskBattlestations

Unfortunately, no wired controllers for PS4 (only one I could find with any articles about was this bad boy http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gator-Claw-Wired-Controller-Black/dp/B01175TPS4). Your suggestion with the spliter cable may just work fine. With that setup, any mic that I have plugged into the mixer is what will be sent to the PS4, so how would you then make it work on the PC? Just unplug that cable from AUX Send?

u/NaokiB4U · 1 pointr/PS4

Ummm.....what do you mean plain?

Dualshock controllers have WAY more variety than the Xbone controllers in regards to colors and designs.....mainly due to promotional partnerships. There's a Star Wars theme, CoD theme, Uncharted theme, etc.

Also hasn't Sony been making more money than Microsoft due to the sell through ratio being 2-1?

All that being said, I would die for an elite controller too.

u/jello_aka_aron · 1 pointr/gaming

Alas, that deal was only for last Saturday. Amazon has both for $40 each and Target/Best Buy are the same if you want local). Those only last until the 17th though, so you better jump on it quick!

u/Killswitch913 · 1 pointr/PS4

I think you are thinking of the Sunset Orange controller that is supposed to be released later this month

u/Wolfy76700 · 1 pointr/nintendo

It's still a DS4 stick placement, but if you're looking for smaller controllers, you can try the HORI Mini pads for PS4. They're OK for children, although I think they do lack the gyro

Then you can just add a converter to make it work. It also works with all XB360, XB1 and PS4 controllers so that can help saving money on controllers themselves as well.

u/Sublimekidd420 · 1 pointr/pcmasterrace

So I found this and one of the reviews says it works on PC. I also found this but I didn't see any reviews with it working on a ps4. But I linked it because it works on PlayStation 2 & 3 so I'm pretty sure it'll work with the ps4.

u/mizzrym91 · 1 pointr/gaming
u/Bizardon · 1 pointr/Tekken

maybe a fightpad is the Solution for ya. The Dragon slay Fightpad could work for you since it got his own extension:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/DRAGON-SLAY-FightPad-Elite-Playstation/dp/B072MMQ461/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1523535063&sr=8-1&keywords=fightpad&dpID=412sEbPIkcL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

I own a hori fighting commander which has larger buttons than the normal ps4/xbox pads but no extension. I like it a lot:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fighting-Commander-PlayStation-Officially-Licensed/dp/B01GVOFIAA/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1523535063&sr=8-4&keywords=fightpad&dpID=41enwJFFLHL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

Mayber it is easier for you doing a "fake" kbd by doing b bqcb.

Also if you think your throws are inkonsistent you can change those by adding a throw to a shoulder button(r1/l1).

U don't have to know every move to punish. Focus on avoiding,blocking punish moves that you are struggling with or known danger moves like demoman, snake edge or hellsweap.

It's always good watching other players on how they deal with your characters.

EDIT: There is a other version of the hori fightpad where you can change the dpad by rotation. But this is more like a stick than a pad and it has a extension:
