Razer Announces Wildcat Tournament Grade Controller for Xbox One
Razer, a world leader in connected devices and software for gamers, today announced the launch of the Razer Wildcat for Xbox One, a pro-gamer-validated, tournament-grade, console controller with four multi-function buttons added to the conventional array, which allows gamers to re-bind any button on the controller for easy access. Twenty-five percent lighter than other tournament grade controllers, the Razer Wildcat for Xbox One features an ergonomic shape to increase actuation speed and a quick control panel that allows users to create dedicated button layout profiles for different games on the fly.
"The Razer Wildcat for Xbox One is the third generation Razer Xbox controller and the result of years working with eSports athletes on many prototypes," says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. "The lightest tournament-grade controller in its class with additional remappable buttons gives gamers an incredible edge." Designed with the feedback of eSports athletes, the Razer Wildcat for Xbox One offers unrivalled durability with reinforced high carbon steel analog stick necks, removable aircraft-grade aluminum triggers, and optional palm grips and analog stick grip caps.Product Features:

Not as a it effects me anyways K\B\M FTW
now that i have a nvidia gpu i can also use it ... if i need ... (not many controller mandatory game in my library) and just as shitty as Razer's are ... "Tournament grade" only a set of word to justify a unjustified price :laugh:
For $150 though I really hope nobody buys this thing when Microsoft's Elite controller will be available at the same price.
Well i have a XBox 360 controller too but it was not 100$ not even close to it. indeed
But if my hand swetting really becomes an issue I just set up an external PC fan right in front of my mouse pad for a quick solution ;)
in fact they did 2 attempt.
1st the Black Element Cyclone
2nd the Ventus X (no fan for that one but a vented "breathing" top)
and indeed a X360 is cheap around 50chf for me with the receiver and the Shield controller is also not too expensive for the quality it has, 70chf
I really wanted the onza /sabertooth once upon a time everyone says they break so easy.
The green shade on this makes me think its a gamestop knockoff.
Still rocking an official wired 360 pad almost 10 years. modded everything on it even bullet buttons o_O
Also this old Logitech has 40mm fan in it.
One of the many reasons not to buy Razer hardware. This guy's Razer Atrox fight stick broke in the middle of the 2015 street fighter IV championship final round.
