Vent: Bought a $70 retro controller that broke in 3 weeks

I picked up one of those wireless SNES-style controllers from a brand I saw all over YouTube ads. Thought it would be great for playing old classics on my Switch and Xbox. The d-pad started sticking after like 15 hours of use, and now the left bumper doesn't even register half the time. I messaged their support and got no reply for a week. Total waste of my money and time. Anyone else get burned by one of those influencer-hyped controllers?

$70 for a paperweight with extra steps.

Oh yeah @alice_reed47 is totally right, mine turned into an expensive paperweight too.
