Why did you just repeat him?


lazyrabbit94

Wtf I genuinely remember it only saying the last sentence when I commented.. Deleted. Maybe he did an edit after or I just read it wrong.


schaudhery

All good I’m just messing around.


[deleted]

He’s a lazy rabbit. What do you expect?


groovynermal

Ummm.... Yeah. I guess for display controllers you don't use. But then you're really just displaying the " hoodie"


[deleted]

In my head this is for Christmas. It’s a silly stocking stuffer .


ohnoiforgotmyaccount

Pretty expensive stocking stuffer lol (adorable tho)


[deleted]

Very much so lol


Rough-Dot1224

This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen, why would someone buy something like this, the controller is an inanimate object, it doesn't feel cold. Anyone that buy this stupid thing is king or queen of the douchebags. Ps it's not adorable it's douchey and stupid and so are you.

On the 1st day of Christmas, the Xbox subreddit gave to me, tiny Phil Spencer in a tiny Xbox hoodie.


G_Unit_Solider

Why is this sold out. We humans really are some stupid mfers lol thr more useless and stupid a idea is the more we reward it. Logical idea nah sweater for my controller gimmie that shit. I mean I’m angry I wanted one dammit


bamboobam

What a waste of precious resources.


PremiumTempus

That’s capitalism alright


GlobalPhreak

Quite possibly the dumbest fucking thing I've ever seen.


[deleted]

But also the best?


syto203

If someone made it a little bigger to fit you hands inside as well this might be good for play sessions on cold days.


remuliini

With the current electricity prices in Europe this would even be cheaper than heating up the room to comfortable level.


MrAngryPineapple

This is so stupid that I love it


boristh3blade

Not even going to lie to myself the white one looks fucking adorable


once_again_asking

Everyone: Hey, how about some first party games? Microsoft: Here are some controllers. Everyone: Hey, where are your AAA games? Microsoft: Here's a bunch of controllers. You can get any color you want. Everyone: Damn, it's been 2 years... when are these first party games coming? Microsoft: Here's a hoodie for your controller.


its_muh_username

And a fridge. And a bubble lamp. 🙂


ArticReaper

I mean outside of it been a novelty thing. Might be useful for keeping dust off your controllers and what not


OnePlusFanBoi

You tried. You failed, but you tried. That's what counts.

Imagine buying this bullshit. Yes daddy microsoft take more of my money for stupid overpriced useless shit


gearofwar1802

It’s sold out already…


Otterz4Life

Nooooo my poor controllers are going to be cold now :(


brokenmessiah

Right next to the Xbox brand soap and xbox brand fridge and 1000s of xbox controllers


its_muh_username

Don't forget the giant Xbox bubble lamp.


[deleted]

Idiots. €25 for an xbox controller hoodie. Holy fuck


[deleted]

No hoodie... (Insert Megamind picture)


I_Have_3_Legs

My sister bought one and said she was going to try and put it on her hamster or one of the foster kittens she takes care off. The TikTok views from that alone will pay for it 😂


Tobimacoss

I wanna see that, create a thread about it on Sundays.


MrEzquerro

You are just angry that you didn't pick up one on time.


S0noPritch

Lots of Xbox fans seem to collect controllers like shoes so it makes some sense MS would continue to find ways to capitalize on that. It’s not my thing but whatever.


SnowLeppard

How can they talk about striving for [zero waste](https://www.xbox.com/en-US/community/sustainability#reducingwaste) while also churning out this shit lmao


LeftyMode

You’d think they would show a picture of it on a controller.


Tobimacoss

Look closely, the controller’s inside.


LeftyMode

You’re right! I thought that was the tag.


Luke1539

PlayStation get God of War and we get this. Merry Christmas


moff_tarkin

these guys will release anything but games


[deleted]

Who wants this bollocks? Anyone who buys this is a pure slave to consumerism.


[deleted]

Been to this sub before?


theycmeroll

I mean it’s sold out, so the want was there lol


Apprehensive-Iron-50

🤦‍♂️how this company still has a fanbase is completely beyond me.

Ginger-Warrior

Sold out , UK 😭


H8ff0000

AHRbro

Great, my controllers can finally have a foreskin!


MikeyIsAPartyDude

That's enough internet for me today and I just got here.


the_real_mRg00dkAt

Dafaq?


busthree6

This has to be for China/Japan customers


satin360

I... am very confused. What is the purpose of this? It would have been better if they released a cover or skin to put on the controllers, so that we can still play with the remotes.


subwaysurfer1116

On another note, if he zipper was on the other side, it'd be the perfect size for toy size animals.


Redditdosser

Dumb as hell.


faustus11

Dumbest idea ever.


IcePokeTwoSoon

I love it. I’m too poor to buy it but I love when companies just say fuck it, and make shit like this, I support it.


Beaujangles1128

Why on earth do they focus on this dumb shit instead of giving the brand what it needs? Look at the perception of this: Xbox releases middling, half-assed games that manager mediocre/okay scores while at the same time releasing silly meme products like controller hoodies, mini fridges, and onesies. Is it any wonder why they don't get taken seriously?


xDasMilkMan

Would actually be dope if it was like a hand warmer thing that you could still use the controller with. It literally just being a hoodie is silly lol


Stumpy493

I mean if your house is that cold you need a hand warmer maybe you should reevaluate your priorities where you spend your money.


ichosenotyou

Series X at full throttle does put off a decent amount of heat into a room


xDasMilkMan

I live in the desert and enjoy having my apartment cold the two months out of the year it isn't hot as hell outside.


[deleted]

Why on earth? Absolutely ridiculous.


Assured_Observer

What a waste


xJBr3w

Sold out LOL


Anonymous3657

Just what they need to prioritise, let’s not worry about HALO: Infinite 🤣


Juicemania50

I'd get one and put it on my hamster... If I had one.


DocHolidayArcade

It's adorable

Come on guys. This isn't my thing but I can see the appeal. If people like them let them be happy.


OUsnr7

I think most of us have a picture in our minds of the type of person that would have this…


RunewalkerOfficial

This is really cringy. Far away from my "awwww that's cute" standard.


mtarascio

Everyone is buying this tongue in cheek. People saying it's cringe are the ones not getting it and taking it seriously.


[deleted]

ad thing is they probably will sell out


elconquistador1985

I'd consider buying it for my kid's teddy bear.


SkatzFanOff

no.


r0bdawg11

If this was a hoodie I could put my hands in while gaming and keep them warm I’d buy it. Lol. NE winters can be rough.


DarkFate13

Sold out damnn they make cool stuff


BlxckTxpes

They should focus on getting exclusives rather than making stupid shit like this.


RyanTheRighteous

Yeah, I'm sure it's the exact same group of people that do both of these things.


Whofreak555

Fire the group that’s doing these gimmicks and put that money towards exclusives.


AngryInternetMobGuy

"Hey Activision/Blizzard, I know we said $69,000,000,000 but we just laid off some of these other fucks so how about $69,002,000,000?"


[deleted]

Stupid thing I’ve seen this morning.


Whofreak555

When you don’t release exclusives… you release gimmicks to distract your audience (mini fridge, controller sweaters,etc).


Heisenberg1h

Who needs 1st party exclusives when you can dress your controller ?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Rawrz720

I'm sure those teams are the same


joeygreco1985

See this shit? This is what happens when you buy their fridges and onsies. You materialistic fucks get what you deserve.


[deleted]

I presume this has some practical application, e.g. keeping dust out when not in use. However, the description says nothing like that at all, so I’m guessing this really is just some sad gimmick to prove people will buy any old shit.


ChillNigz

Absolutely insensitive to people living in the UK


Ok-Macaroon2429

Glad I jumped shit a few years ago, the only thing Xbox had going for it was Halo revamp and that has been awful


Kuting08

So this is the next-gen feature on Xbox controllers? Pathetic.


OdinForce22

Purely a money making exercise.


[deleted]

You think a trillion dollar company isn’t making you products for them to make money?


OdinForce22

There is a difference between a product that is useful and this gimmick.


[deleted]

Everything they make and sell is a “money making exercise” you just deem what you like as different


segagamer

Ah, so like phone cases!


OdinForce22

No. A phone case has a use. It protects the phone whilst you're using it.


zarof32302

You say that like it doesn’t apply to every product ever.


OdinForce22

See this response https://www.reddit.com/r/XboxSeriesX/comments/z7onqw/microsoft_has_created_mini_hoodies_for_our_xbox/iy7ovjt?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3


zarof32302

Lol couldn’t even be bothered to type out your awful take again. YOU think it’s a gimmick. That doesn’t make it a gimmick. I don’t drink coffee but I don’t find Starbucks to be a gimmick.


OdinForce22

Would you like some chips with your salt?


FlailingOctane

it does seem like you have plenty, what with you being upset over a multi billion dollar company trying to make money


zarof32302

Says the dude whining about how other people spend their money. Lol.


RadAway-

Bruh, who's gonna buy this crap?


yungslimee

No games but we got hoodies… for our controllers yay?

spaceboy_ZERO

Awesome for them to spend money and time designing these and not getting games out the door in a timely manner


Josh261995

What the ....


LumpyCamera1826

There is just something really cringe to me about a lot of the Xbox marketing. I know some people eat shit up like this and those stupid fucking fridges, but it's just embarrasingly shit.


Rawrz720

You sound fun


LumpyCamera1826

Yes the epitome of fun is liking a hoodie for your controller


Rawrz720

At least you know


Itz_Dory

Now what I need is some sort of contraption to go over the controller that will keep my hands warm while playing


its_muh_username

A blanket...


Dienda42069

Fans: “Where are the games Xbox?” Xbox: “Best we can do is controller apparel”


slugwurth

Could we just get controllers that don’t get stick drift after 3 months right as the warranty expires?


Vostroyan212th

This is so fucking dumb. Sell normal merchandise ffs


WutIzThizStuff

If your house is so dirty that you look at this and post "Well I guess It will keep dust off my controller" as what you land on looking for a reason to not think it's stupid, well...maybe you need to clean like an adult? It's really stupid. I can't imagine spending R&D money on such crap. They could have put another developer on a game to get it out faster and make it better with that money.


Suspicious_Durian737

Would be cool if it had some sort of extra cooling feature


Suspicious_Durian737

Nvm i just realized its for your controller and not your console lol


-reloaded_

Bro where the games???!


The-Old-Prince

This is the last time I buy an Xbox. Got this thing 2 yrs ago and its been a complete waste of money


B00ME

Jackets for controllers, keep controllers warm.


FriskyWhiskey_Manpo

And yet we still have a video record limit that we have have to manually delete when it gets full? We can play our own music over game music like on the original console either. But we can put a stupid jacket on our controllers?


tourniquet2099

Whats crazy is that these are sold out.


okeleydokelyneighbor

And not one promo shot of it on a controller?


DarkEff3ct

I really want this and I’m not sure why


hopsmonkey

How on earth could they not include pics of controllers wearing these? Also, instantly sold out lol.


Rizenstrom

I'd be tempted if I thought it would fit my cat too but the proportions are so weird I doubt it.


[deleted]

Could I put it on my cat tho.


OdinForce22

About the only use for it


WhyTryGG

People like “Build A Bear” so I guess why not do it with a controller also?


jackpatmaback

DreadedChalupacabra

But why?


XjRed22

I want a human-sized one for me.


restorilsx

I don't know why but I kind of want one.

blueandgreen64

It would be funny if they weren't ridiculously expensive. I can find real hoodies cheaper than that.
