If you’re like most people, you probably think that controllers work best when plugged in. After all, they’re the ones that allow us to interact with our games and other devices. But according to some developers, this may not be the case at all. In a recent article for The Verge, developers discuss how controllers can actually be less effective when not plugged in. The main reason is that controllers use power to communicate with other devices. When a controller isn’t plugged in, it has to rely on batteries or an AC adapter to do so. This can take a long time and can cause problems if the device isn’t working properly. In addition, controllers also use data communication which can be more difficult when not connected. This means that if something goes wrong with a controller, it can take longer for the game or device to fix it than if it was connected properly.
