Xbox Green Duke Controller Is Now Available

4
The Duke is back, baby! The original Xbox controller first made its grand re-debut thanks to the folks over at Hyperkin and thanks to popular demand, the classic green option is now available for all!

The Clover Green Edition works for both Xbox One and PC platforms and is made to look similar to the Translucent Green Limited Edition Xbox console that first made its big splash in the market back in 2003.

According to a recent press statement by Hyperkin, "When a player wants a nostalgia kick, all they need to do is press the Xbox button and the original Xbox animated startup screen will play right inside the button. This was no easy task for Hyperkin Product Developer, Chris Gallizzi, although the experience is one he’d never forget."

Gallizzi added, "It has been a roller coaster of nostalgia, but one of the most fun projects I've worked on."

The revamped Duke comes with some pretty amazing features to blend nostalgic style with modern technology. Check out what it has in store before you scoop yours up today:

Original animated Xbox startup screen played right inside the Xbox button
Bumpers that mirror the Black and White buttons
9 ft. detachable USB cable (required to use controller)
3.5 mm headset jack
Option and View buttons


Many fond memories of the Xbox when it first released back in 2001 but one of those fond memories was not how clunky the original controller was. Because of the massive size, it was dubbed "The Duke" and has been referred to that ever since. Whether you loved it, or hated it - you can now get it in black and that sweet, sweet green!

You can get the newest colour option right here for $69.99 at GameStop!

I could see the nostalgia in these controllers but I'd never get one just not as practical as a regular controller unless you've got giant hands.
