@@GANGNATIONMUSIC What are you talking? Those are the worst controllers I ever used in the last 15 years. It's not even usable. Only if you're a casual who never tried to play even slightly serious. I think for kids it's good enough. Like barely, for kids below 7 years old.
I recently had accidently bought a fake one and i realized that on the real one you can pull on the analog sticks and they would kinda pop out while on the fake one they won't budge. This may not be for all real controllers but just pointing out my experience
Yep, I had an unfortunate experience with this recently. Found new controllers on ebay that looked legit, seller had a good rating. Bought them, noticed the R3 clicking was just totally different from the other ds3's I've had..... and then tried playing a game that used L3 for dashing, and of course I couldn't press down on L3 while pushing forward.... Then realized, yeah, it's a counterfeit controller.
dang, been watching yo vids on this chan & the other one for awhile. Its amazing how you know all this stuff. please keep it up if ya can. i'm not a $ supporter for any chan cuz would if I could (laid off) but try to watch/like your vids when I can tho. hope that helps a little bit. thank you
thanks for this video, I knew something felt off about the $20 DS3 I bought for my son for Christmas off of ebay, your video helped me realize it was a fake, opened it up and ity was only a "Single Shock" lol
I just checked my controllers I bought off Amazon and it's strange.. both have the slightly bold START and SELECT lettering, but everything else checked fine. I looked inside, one has the Toshiba chip, BOTH have grey Sony batteries. I'll have to look what types of controllers were manufactured in this case. Thanks for this video!
My PS4 controllers analog stick works when I want to move forward but when I press down to sprint it stops Sprinting and it also doesn't let me move backwards
Im still kinda confused on if my ps3 controller is real, however i installed a driver in my pc to connect a ps3 controller to it and as it seems it is real, everything looks nice and looks real (these controls are from 2011, and before these fake controllers were rare)
Tbh before i even seen this video ive bought the "fake" ones not knowing and they look n feel legit and play perfect. So i don't care their so affordable for the casual gamer that u can buy many of them and have enough for life..
can you make a video on how to fix controller ghosting problem? my controller has issue. when i did'nt press anything the button B,A,X and RB clicking by itself . :( please fix it
Can you also do ds1 and ds2? Or just tips if not. I am planning of starting a collection but I want to make sure that what I'll buy and display is original controller. Thanks
Another thing I have found is, the bottom of the controller where you hold them, once held up to the light you can see through them, while the fakes you can't. I have the original controller that came with the system, it's not a dualshock so not sure if the real dualshocks are like that also.
Only the old SIXAXIS controllers are like this! But nice observation. I was very surprised when I saw it the first time. Got my first SIXAXIS last year. I only had Dualshock controllers.
I need help, every single game I try to play on my ps3 is so delayed! The second I move the analong stick it takes probably 0.5-1 second to register the movement. Making it unplayable I’ve tried this with all my 3 ps3 controllers and my ps5 controllers Any suggestions?
thought i got scammed cause it felt... a bit weird, but i'm like almost positive i just got one that was official and just in really good condition all things considered; thanks for the video! :')
Adding simple REAL / FAKE captions under the appropriate controller during the video would've made this video so much better. When a caption was finally used to denote the fake, the video had 15 seconds left! Come on brother... because your insight & everything else is great.
It's done that way on purpose, to force people to LISTEN to the details. If they skip around just trying to look at screenshots, they will miss important details.
@@HowToX Brother...lol, come on. We both know the attention span of people is at it's lowest point in history. You aren't going to reverse that trend by avoiding captions and graphics. I listened to the entire video, heard everything and like I said, thought your insight was great. I still believe denoting which controller is the fake and which one's legit is helpful.
Something I found out is that the more you specify that you want an "original Sony/ oem new/ sealed ps3 controller", the higher chance you're gonna run into a fake, I bought 3 "new" ps3 controllers and they all were fakes in original packaging, with one going for $80 was in the old school full plastic style packaging, this motherfucker literally cut and glued the sealed plastic back. Then I just said fuck it and bought a used one for $15, Sony authentic, with sixaxis and dualshock, works perfectly, was just dirty. Btw, easiest ways to know for sure is to use your PC or testing the sixaxis can also be an easy way to test, none of the fakes I bought had working sixaxis
Trying to help a friend get one on ebay, why the hell is this like this? did companies have to pretend to be Sony to make thrid party controllers? I dont recall this being an issue on Xboxes or Nintendos, 3rd parties just tell you they arent made by the console manufacturer
Yes, there are 3rd companies that try to pretend to be Sony. It is like this in every sector of electronics: air pods, speakers, laptops, etc. Yes it happens for Xbox and Nintendo, but some devices may be harder to duplicate than others, especially if it's a newer product.
@@HowToX When I bought extra controllers for my Xbox and Nintendos it was obvious they were third party. Maybe it comes with a console's age people only want what they think is top quality
I bought mine on ebay and my analog stick feels like shit 😂 i got scammed😂 its okay though i bought a dongle so i can use my ps5 controllers or ps4 if i choose 😆
oh shit i think i got scammed
How did you got scammed they are cheap as f 15$ I'm still surprised how good replica are those Even PS4 ones they are great quality for the price

Yeah for little big planet it's enough. You're right.

I suggest a DualSense.
@@HowToX True, they're actually quite nice to use on ps3. Tho sadly they can't be used with ps2 backwards compatibility, only official ds3's, lol.

Thank you for the wonderful comment!
Another reason why original controllers are important: motion control, just found out my controller doesnt have it and I'm here :/
thanks for this video, I knew something felt off about the $20 DS3 I bought for my son for Christmas off of ebay, your video helped me realize it was a fake, opened it up and ity was only a "Single Shock" lol

Stick drift problems get a new controller
@@HoweyJR_ how you should say it, stick drift problems, try taking it apart and clean the joysticks or waste money for a new controller.
@@therealcoreby you can do either, the choice is yours.
0:35 if notice the right anolog stick is shift more to the left and the other is all most dead center
The rumble motor weight's on the axes should be in 2 sizes, a larger and a smaller one.
Im still kinda confused on if my ps3 controller is real, however i installed a driver in my pc to connect a ps3 controller to it and as it seems it is real, everything looks nice and looks real (these controls are from 2011, and before these fake controllers were rare)
Yup and don't get me started on the modern packaging of the fake controllers compared to the real packaging of the real controllers.
Tbh before i even seen this video ive bought the "fake" ones not knowing and they look n feel legit and play perfect. So i don't care their so affordable for the casual gamer that u can buy many of them and have enough for life..
Even though my PS3 is now dead I still has the Fake White PS3 Sealed right now as memoria about how difficult how to put the R2 L2 button hook.
Fake ones won't work when putting your ps3 in safe mode
They do
@@Thechampfais have you tried? All my fake ones will not
i tried and its worked
What about Sixaxis? Did PRC Chinese try to recreate it?
And also replicas usually require extra cfg for pc emulation

4:10 Authenthic controller sealed in 2024 after 10 year of ps3 discontinued? What the hell u talking any sealed is fake that are out of stock
Are you new to the world? People sell sealed gaming items all the time. I have some sealed things in my collection, including controllers.
Another thing I have found is, the bottom of the controller where you hold them, once held up to the light you can see through them, while the fakes you can't. I have the original controller that came with the system, it's not a dualshock so not sure if the real dualshocks are like that also.
Only the old SIXAXIS controllers are like this! But nice observation. I was very surprised when I saw it the first time. Got my first SIXAXIS last year.
I only had Dualshock controllers.
Thanks great review
Followed every step but after connecting through bt in the test app all the buttons are flashing very fast
I need help, every single game I try to play on my ps3 is so delayed!
The second I move the analong stick it takes probably 0.5-1 second to register the movement. Making it unplayable
I’ve tried this with all my 3 ps3 controllers and my ps5 controllers
Any suggestions?
On the PS3 XMB menu go to settings, then accesories adjustment, input lag delay calibration, move the calibration slider to -0.5.
how about motion sensor? does it work on fake one?
Yes on some they do I bought one that had motion sensor but still was fake sorry I’m late tho
can you do one for PS2 controller as well?
How many grams are they?
Uh, for the first comparison regarding fakes, I have a genuine controller from 2013 that looks identical
Im not even going on the external anymore, just going to open them up to verify authenticity.
thought i got scammed cause it felt... a bit weird, but i'm like almost positive i just got one that was official and just in really good condition all things considered; thanks for the video! :')
Fake and generic controllers tend not to work on Linux. So a real wii remote or ps3 controller means game working or not.
Thx for the video, I got scammed on Ebay, none of the buttons work on my new controller
Hey I’m desperate rn, my Xbox series x controller lb button isn’t working it’s stiff and won’t respond at all can u save me some money
Just find my video on how to repair LB.
till today i was thinking my dual shock 3 is original . so that's why i was unable to connect it to mobile via otg to play game

Fake DS3s don’t have motion controls
Im glad i got a real one
I might have got scammed but now i know i cam use my ps4 controler so that solves my problem bad news is i got another jank controler
My fake one motion controller is not responding 😂
I bought mine on ebay and my analog stick feels like shit 😂 i got scammed😂 its okay though i bought a dongle so i can use my ps5 controllers or ps4 if i choose 😆
Does the dongle support sixaxis and button preasure sensitivity? I wanna get a ps5 controller but not really sure
how the hell is mine fake it came with the ps3
God damn yeah i got scammed it was 16 bucks and im left with the same problem which is the analog stick god damn chinesse counterfit bs
aw man i got scammed :/
Damn good eyes
I didn’t get scammed🙏🗣️
YES mine is real, it has the toshiba chip
fuck. I got scammed
What the hell! you can use a PS five controller on a PS3? all this fucking money I spent on PS3 controllers! 😲😡
It will work like bluetooth device not like ds3, meaning no vibro, no ps button, no sixaxis.
@@andrewnueslayer3848 yeah, I noticed that you gotta keep at least one PS3 controller around
@@christopherbostic4429You don't necessarily have to have a PS3 controller around. You can turn on and off the system using the system itself.
@@HowToX but you cant exit the games and its no safe turn off the system with the game running

It’s so annoying
I would like to buy a joystick. Could I send you a photo on facebook or instagram to ask your opinion?
