This controller lets you swap between Xbox and PlayStation thumbstick layouts without a toolkit, and it only costs $50

A Nyxi Flexi on a desk with pink lighting turned on.

For years, I've been jumping up and down and shouting from the hilltops about a controller called the Victrix Pro BFG. It's a modular gamepad that's now available on both PS5 and Xbox and, because you can swap around its parts and shape it to meet your needs and preferences, it feels like you're getting two, three, and sometimes four controllers wrapped up in one.

But it's now been years since the BFG arrived, and I can't fathom why we haven't seen more of the best PC controllers trying to emulate this highly customizable design. Nyxi has made a name for itself by making some third-party Switch and Switch 2 controllers, but its unsung hero might just be the Flexi, a half-modular controller that takes more of a "pro" approach to things.
