BaconWizard17 Posted July 15, 2020 Report Share Posted July 15, 2020 Hopefully this is the right place for this. Are any of the pieces of the Xbox One controller compatible with the OG Xbox? I'm mostly curious about the ABXY buttons and the joysticks. I know that Xbox 360 joysticks will work on the OG Xbox controllers more or less, but the Xbox One has a lot more options for custom controller parts, so I wanted to see if anything was transferable.

BaconWizard17 Posted July 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Follow up: I did some deconstructing, and it seems like the only thing from the Xbox One controllers that will work on the OG Xbox controllers is the joysticks (I haven't verified since I don't have an Xbox One controller to deconstruct, but this seems to be the case). The buttons won't work; they have different patterns for the little slots, and they're different heights. Triggers are obviously out of the question without having to check, start and menu buttons are done completely differently so those don't work, and obviously the bumpers can't be subbed out for the black and white buttons.

TEK Nemesis Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Just use the Xbox One controller with the original Xbox. (ref: ogx360). Send me if PM if you're interested as I sell them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconWizard17 Posted July 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Interesting. I didn't know that was possible. I do kinda like the aesthetic of the OG controller though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This and this. What seems to be the easiest is to use generic xbox controllers for their shells, and modifying everything else to fit into it properly. Though there doesn't seem to be a formal write up anywhere, so you may have to get creative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
