    Default how to deal with controller wires

    How do u deal with controller wires i hate to wrap them around the controllers because if they push a button down for a long time it tends to mess it up a bit I have noticed.

    I use either the twistex stuff that seals bread bags or rubber bands. It's easier on the cords too since bending the cords too much can screw them up over time.

    I just loop them up like the 50' Electrical Extension cables. Not wrapping around the controller. That way the wire doesn't get twisted and it doesn't press any buttons. Don't have to unroll either, just let it drop.
