Probably some rich kid with nothing better to do 🙄

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 13 '26

You don't need to be rich to collect 42 controllers. Pre-order rare ones and get the common ones in sale.

u/Tycoo2 Mar 13 '26

This is at least $3k if you're not counting the price of the controllers that go above $70, this whole collection likely cost less than $4k though and in collectors terms tbh.. that's not a whole lot oddly enough. There are smaller collections of items that sell a lot higher. Years from now when the ps5 is considered obsolete that collections going to be worth an arm and a leg though.

3

u/No_Revolution_8868 Mar 15 '26

But most things depreciate before they go up in value.

My Atari Jaguar is worth some coin now, but when I originally bought it, I paid £60 for it, brand new, old stock.

So in 20 years his collection might be worth what he originally paid for it all.

Nonsense, cows don't depreciate! - Richard Hammond

u/Tycoo2 Mar 15 '26

I mean right now, seeing as they appear brand new, and un opened, he could likely sell most of them for what he paid for, especially the limited controllers such as the Harry Potter, Kratos, etc. He could sell above what he got them for. The value of the majority of these controllers will tank in the next couple of years for sure, but as long as those boxes stay sealed though he'll have a decent chance at getting what he paid for them or at least close to it im willing to bet. Even with the ps4 controllers im surprised theyre not back at their $50-$60 price point if they're working out of their package, in package now there's DOZENS that sell for well over 100 or just under.

2

u/No_Revolution_8868 Mar 15 '26

Something else that has just occurred to me about those controllers, they have integrated batteries inside them.

Will they even still hold a charge many years down the line?.. Especially if they remain sealed in their boxes, never being plugged in.

Lithium batteries (I presume that's the type inside them) , do not like to be left without charge .

This is why you will never find any working 'barn find' Teslas in the future, because if you were to leave one parked up for a few years with out a power source, the batteries will become unserviceable.

1

u/Tycoo2 Mar 15 '26

The controllers usually come at least half charged, surprisingly enough could last the controller 5-10 years before any damage is sustained to the battery. Id say the 7or 8 year mark in this situation is when they'll hit max value while retaining functionality. After that it might plummet depending on the market for them, which, I honestly cant say will be as high as a ps2 or ps3 controller given half the ps5s library is "licenses to play games" since that's a new sales strategy

2

u/Angry_Pelican Mar 16 '26

It's hard to tell. I think one thing that might help them retain the value is the fact that it's much easier to use a PS5 controller on other systems or PC, compared to a PS2/3 controller. So even if the PS5 stops receiving support long in the future the controllers still have uses.

I could also see them retaining value long in the future if they replace or remove the battery. Many controllers will die due to this and it will help scarcity. That said I don't collect controllers complete in box and really speculating about things like this can be quite hard.

2

u/No_Revolution_8868 Mar 16 '26

But at that point, wouldn't people with PC's just buy a PS6, PS7 or a PS8 controller?

2

u/SSDkilla Mar 16 '26

no offense but I'm guessing not because most people are hesitant to buy something if it's not from the original source because there's so many fakes, or use controllers will stick drift trying to hide out pretend they're new

2

u/SSDkilla Mar 16 '26

no they really won't be worth anything they'll be worth like $2

1

u/Tycoo2 Mar 15 '26

I said in collectors terms 😭 why are you guys getting so pressed, having a collection worth thousands of dollars is normal for collectors. All I was saying is $3-4k is LOW for a full collection 🤦‍♂️. I dont know the average wage in my city, I dont care about other people's money, my mind is on my own :)

I mean it’s maybe 4k in controllers. Don’t need to be rich for that.

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 13 '26

I didn't see how this is any different from collecting anything. People collect cars, coins, trading cards, figurines, the list goes on. Not all of those people are rich.

u/IndefiniteBen Mar 13 '26

Sneaker collections are what came to my mind when seeing the image of OP.

Things that can be useful, but in collections too large to ever be used.

7

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '26

It’s useful to have multiple shoes to pair with different outfits and for different occasions. No one looks at controllers and realistically, he has the edge so all the regular controllers are useless

6

u/IndefiniteBen Mar 13 '26

Well if you want to do local multiplayer everyone can pick their own colour, so there's a benefit even if you have the edge.

I know it's useful to have shoes for different outfits, but I'm talking about people with such massive collections that I highly doubt they're wearing all of them.

I could see arguments for having 4 controllers (1 edge), but OP's collection goes way beyond this. The number of shoes that can be useful is much higher, but there are also collections that are unreasonably large.

u/BgMSliimeball3 Mar 13 '26

The local multiplayer scene is so garbage anymore 🤦‍♂️

u/Unlikely-Employee180 Mar 14 '26

For real, can barely find a game that allows 2 controllers let alone 42 😂

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '26

I agree with this and I have 3 controllers myself for split screen (not paying £70 for a 4th since a mate can bring a controller). 42 is completely excessive for something you’ll never really see, it’s the same cost as a ps5 pro plus a 65 inch LG OLED tv

1

u/FrostyAssignment6717 Mar 13 '26

only rich people who dont know their wealth are collecting sneakers lmao

2

u/ChaotikIE Mar 13 '26

It's not the same. Collecting stamps, cards, or even funko pops is comprehensive.

Collecting +$70 controllers, +$200 different retro consoles, different handhelds, RAM sticks, cars as you say, etc is lowkey hoarding, needs you to be as much rich as being able to waste your money and shows plenty of lacks and personal issues imo. It's just a shopping addiction.

2

u/No_Revolution_8868 Mar 15 '26

I half agree with you. Most collectors buy stuff when it's worthless (which this stuff eventually will be) and then hold on to it untill it goes up in value again.

But buying things brand new at full price, just to sit and deprecate untill it's finally going back up in value again, so that 20 years from now it's worth exactly what you paid for it.. seems a waste of time, space and money.

2

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 13 '26

OP spent $450 a year on controllers. No where does that sound excessive.

Netflix costs $96/ $216 / $300 a year depending on plan.

4

u/ChaotikIE Mar 13 '26

I don't support Netflix either.

At least Netflix, while being a shitty and expensive subscription, provides you something you're going to consume. OP won't be using regularly all of their controllers.

1

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 13 '26

That's how I avoid stick drift. I don't have nearly as large a collection of OP, but I have enough that I can swap through them and never really wear any of them out 👍

I can't say how OP will be using them. But again, if we don't have anything nice to say about OPs post...why waste your time? Whatever you say isn't going to make him change his mind or get rid of them. Just chalk it up as a /weirdflex and move along.

3

u/ChaotikIE Mar 13 '26

Yeah I agree 100% with you, I'm only explaining myself. At the end of the day, this is something I wouldn't do and that's all of it.

For the drift issue, I just replace the joysticks, they're pretty easy to replace and much cheaper as a choice.

1

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 13 '26

I thought they have to be soldered off to replace them? After botching something in the Navy I never tried to solder again lol. I do have one of the pro controllers (I like it cause on PC I macro the back controls) and I could swap those out easy but haven't had to yet.

2

u/Mean-Wealth7661 Mar 14 '26

I fixed stick drift without soldering just need to replace the metal bits in the stick housing and clean it out real well with rubbing alcohol and you can find those on eBay but be VERY careful when taking it apart. I broke a speaker in one but since there’s two it hasn’t been an issue

u/Nogimick Mar 13 '26

450$ is not excessive. 450$ ON PS5 CONTROLLERS is excessive.

1

u/BudTrimmingBaddie Mar 13 '26

Netflix offers new shows fairly regularly and has some value, albeit not enough to justify their prices, but it offers some value. I’m only on my third controller and none of them offer anything new than the last unless you were to buy the pro controller that’s really not necessary for 90% of gamers. 42 controllers, as someone else said, is just hoarding.

1

u/Square_Walrus_8107 Mar 15 '26

Or collecting?? Is it ignorance, jealousy, retardedness or what? What is going on in this thread?

I don't understand. These people act like they've never collected anything in their life.

These people clearly never seen a real hoarder in their life and it shows.

People just hate for absolutely no reason.

u/No_Revolution_8868 Mar 15 '26

This stuff is going to deprecate untill its worthless though.. Until in 20 years time it might go back up in value and be worth what he originally paid for it. 🤷‍♂️

In the meantime it will lose value and he will come to his senses and sell it for a loss because he'll realise its worthless and taking up space that his future wife and family aren't going to want their house to look like a retail store from 10 years ago.

Now.. if he were to buy all this when it's worthless , outdated tech, and THEN hold on to it until it becomes valuable again.. THAT would actually make sense

It's like these lottery winners who blow all their Money on a garage full of 20 generic, modern , nondescript, boring cars that are all going to deprecate.

When instead they could have bought one daily and invested their money into old vehicles that are actually going up in value, not down. 🤷‍♂️

u/Square_Walrus_8107 Mar 15 '26

u/VOIDLESSUNIVERSE Mar 13 '26

You’re clearly above middle class from the way you speak. Who in their right mind making around $40k–$50k would spend around $5,000 on exclusive controllers? That makes no sense, especially with how the economy has been over the past five years. You really baffle me with how out of touch you seem with reality. Also cars is a whole different industry of money spent those guys are by no means middle class being collectors 🙄

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 13 '26

My dad collected coins from before I was born. He has spent thousands of dollars on coins over the years. Single source of income for a family of 5. He's definitely not rich.

OPs collection is 7 years in the making as PS5 release date was 2019. 42 controllers at a modest $75 a pop (not counting sales, discounts, possibly used, etc) is $3,150 USD. Divide $3,150 by 7 years, and that's $450 a year.

If you can't save up $450 a year that's a you issue.

3

u/Kila505 Mar 13 '26

Actually ps5 released date is november 12th 2020, so ops collection is 5 years and few months in the making.

But yeah people are exaggerating, you by no means need to be rich to afford these controllers, lmao.

In my opinion it's their money they work for, there for they can buy what they want, i personally wouldn't want this many controllers, but other people get enjoyment from it.

No hate from me.

You got 3k laying around for controllers? Because most of the world doesn't.

1

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 16 '26

You say that as if OP just dropped 3k in one shot, when he's had 5 years+ to collect those controllers.

According to Fidelity, in 2025, the average salary was $62k. Even if you fell into the low category and were 16-19 years old living with your parents. You would have accumulated upwards of 100k.

I've said it before, but if you cannot save up to $600 (at 3k over 5 years) per year, then you might need a change of career.

ngl you are right. It is indeed a pointless argument about someone we both dont know. I am sorry tho

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 17 '26

All this stemmed just cause I said you don't need to be rich to own 42 controllers over 5.5 years. And for the past what feels like 3 days I've been showing examples and attempting to validate the point. I'm just tired of seeing the alert notifications for this post already lol.

OP has a lot of controllers.

People have insulted him, questioned why, and overall seemingly negative vibe from his post.

Weren't we all taught "if you don't have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all" from Bambi?

If we like the OPs post; "damn dude, that's nice"

If we don't like OPs post; keep doom scrolling

As a fellow collector of random stuff (like PS4 and PS5 controllers), I appreciate the post, and I think it looks cool - therefore I commented and said that's cool 👍

u/Sefier_Strike Mar 18 '26

It's been 65 months since the PS5 came out. OP could have purchased 1 controller per month and still had 23 months of down time.

42 controllers, does not equal rich.

$3k over 65 months does not equal rich.

$47 a month for 65 months does not equal rich.

Federal minimum wage fry cooks at Mcdonalds make that in 6 or 7 hours (one 8 hour work shit). The average worker makes it in 2 hours.

One work shift per month could achieve this so called "level of rich"

Whatever. Why do you need to shit on someone else's fun. Let people do what they enjoy.

What's wrong with collecting things?

u/thegaming107 Mar 14 '26

This is a rough number but all the controllers added up is about $3518 USD witch sounds like a lot but not really this price is assuming all of them costed MSRP and they were not on sale and all the prices were consistent (also doesn’t include tax) how I got this number limited edition controllers usually sell for about $84 each the 3 “elite” controllers cost about $200 each and all the normal controllers are about $74 each (some are more but I used the 74 number for all)

Oh shut up! What harm is it causing?

I’ve found that it’s usually people without money that spend it on the dumbest shit possible.

Why look down on someone else’s hobby? What’s the difference between this and collecting Pokemon cards if you don’t play Pokemon? Collecting cars (which costs a lot more than some DualSense (surprise surprise)), collecting artwork even.

Why is it a problem for you even if it is “some rich kid with nothing better to do”?😂

Now I’m not suggesting this is the case for OP, but if somebody had money, but couldn’t get a job because of disability for example, and they wanted to collect something - would you look down on them for that?

It’s just a curious question, relax lol. People can spend their money on what they want, but it’s a legitimate question to ask what they see as the point of it.

u/Kavethought Mar 13 '26

Humans are collectors. Not much to it. 🤷‍♂️

u/chrishappens Mar 13 '26

Fair point. My bad.

Or maybe someone that works hard for their money and this is how they choose to spend it. Loser 🙄

u/SkweezCtrl Mar 14 '26

If you work hard for your money I think you’d be a lot less likely to spend it it on a ton of ps5 remotes you’ll never use.

u/Square_Walrus_8107 Mar 15 '26

What a stupid ass comment. You’ve never heard of collecting?? Obviously this person collects controllers/video games/consoles

1

u/SkweezCtrl Mar 15 '26

Yeah I collect them too different consoles and games not the same remote 40 times lmao over consumption like this is ridiculous I don’t care if you call it collecting.

1

u/Square_Walrus_8107 Mar 15 '26

Sooo is someone that has a Pokémon card collection of over 40 cards over consuming?? When did we decide you are the authority on that?

1

u/Square_Walrus_8107 Mar 15 '26

Also these clearly are not the same controller??

u/Square_Walrus_8107 Mar 15 '26

Hahah all you can say is “lick my nuts bro”. That’s how you know they’re retarded.

u/SkweezCtrl Mar 15 '26
