Maybe it will help remind you not to throw your controller around!

How often are you dropping your controller?

i'm more clumsy than i'd care to admit. also i have cats. and once i sneezed and knocked over an entire row of schooldesks without touching them. and i have cats. probably four or five times a session if i'm using that controller?

Dropping? Never. Throwing it on the couch? Couple times, I'd probably get a chuckle.

Supposedly it only does it every 5-6 times.

Surely there would be a way to disable it altogether
