[Video] The World's Most Expensive Xbox Controller is DONE
The saga continues, now with much more polishing. Pt. 1: Buy Xbox Core Wireless Controller (PAID LINK): …
I always wanted a super weighted Xbox controller.
Not sure if anyone here watches Business Blaze, but I can see this crazy venture being featured there at some point, in some way…
when it all came together, I was like, even when I didn't expect to be, I was all ππππππππππππ
6:00 Health & Safety much?
Does anyone know why they use gloves?
when playing with it
Cool. Now make one for PS5
I watched all videos to help you milking π
I love silver, it's even more conductive and self-cleaning. Cheaper too, but I don't care about that. I'll be player 2, you go ahead and be player 1. π
Why oh Why? IS it why not do it!
Now Linus is Midas
Thank you so much for the exposure warning. You deserve mad respect for that!
loved that you put seizure warning into one of those videos. pandemic gets to me. always nice to see someone caring
This is sooo…fucking stupid. I Love it.
"The snakes spoke to me," this should be a red flag.
gg
You are in someone elses workshop, wear a damn mask. Be respectful Linus. YES they are annoying, doesnt matter, be respectful.
So I know how expensive the metal is, but that can be melted or sold at melt-value to recover most of it.
But what about the labor cost? Having a bunch of skilled craft workers spend days on a piece can't be cheap.
Au
Thatβs similar to tug welding, not arc welding. Still love the video π€
The amount of tech tips I learned from this video in immeasurable
Imagine spending years working as an expert with gold and expensive jewelry and being asked to smooth down an xbox controller
Amazing project, and a fun video — I would love to know the final price tag. π
Hello, I'm just doing my job and liking the video to help Linus tech tips survive this bad financial decision.
Why didnβt they use a elite controller???
the thumnbails actually making me feel bad inside
I'm somewhat disappointed you didn't make a gold Dualshock 4 controller (or maybe Dualsense). I'm a PC gamer, completely outside the console wars, but I think the DS4 is so vastly superior. I just love how well it's supported on Steam (gyro controls are in fact better supported than in the PS4). It definitely "deserved" more the gold treatment.
Now drop it
how could you not get custom buttons made out of gemstones? pffffffft
I like that you went with the scrotum texture on the back.
I absolutely get that the material cost on this was stupidly massive. But if you're ok with me asking, what was (roughly) the workmanship cost?
…waiiit.. you can't milk those
I think mine is more expensive… The number of batteries I've had to buy for it during lockdown…
They should have got an arms manufacturer to build an xbox controller. Can you imagine having the fit and finish of a modern gun? The best part, actual "triggers". The batteries could eject when they are low.
You can probably sell this for way more than the gold it cost. Haha
Linus could auction it to make mo money
Not the smartest investment
About 3m views translate to about 6 grand.
I hope you have a good sponsorship
Could probably sell it for several times the value if you really wanted the money back.
Please milk this dry (pause).
Imagine the joysticks start to have drift issues in 2 weeks
how do you have 13 m subscribers but only get 1m views…
Make gold side panels for the ps5
Your hands would smell of metal
"I need to milk this"
I wish Linus would milk me.
Dinosaur without gold is dinosr. Really??
That's a pretty manly pink toque you have there, Linus. π
It's a sin he used a normal controller, instead of the Xbox elite 2 controller.
10:10 I feel the weight just watching that.
1:20
nooo you can't just grind away gold!
haha tungsten carbide brrrr
Dope!
"milk it with sponsors like…" ROFL
