About the controller connection

The xbox support said that:

You can connect up to eight wireless controllers to a console.

Is it means I can connect less than 8 controllers which they are open at same time or it means I can only connect less than 8 controllers while some of the 8 controllers are not opened on?

You can only have eight controllers connected at any one time. But you can connect as many controllers as you want if you disconnect one, then connect the next one, and so on.

Can I ask why you need 9 or more controllers connected at any given time? Just asking out of curiosity

I feel an experiment needs to be conducted with the outcomes presented on this thread

I only own two controllers so cant participate :-(

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. That is a great question. The console allows up to eight wireless controllers to connect to the console. The article entitled, "Connect
a wireless Xbox One controller to your console" contains information about the Xbox One controllers. The article states, "You can connect up to eight wireless controllers to a console." We hope this helps!

This should answer your questions about using the controller as a wired connection.
