Why doesn't microsoft support legacy thumbsticks layout on their cheap controller ?

you guessed it right lol, it won't be limited by hardware, i can do it on my cheap no brand controller. and i can set my xbox one controller anyway i want using steam profiles on pc so basically its just microsofts way of money grabbing.

This would fix so many problems with simply playing games period. It would grant equal access to all games on Xbox for Legacy Thumbstick players instead of just the games whose developers are aware of and add Legacy Thumbsticks as an option in the settings
menus.

It's quite ironic that the Elite Controller (presented as letting players play how they prefer), despite it's obvious advantages over the normal Xbox Controller, does not have the original console thumbstick layout. It seems like such a simple fix, to swap
the X-axis of the sticks. This would let me play all the games I've wanted to buy, like The Witcher, and literally thousands of other games that lack Legacy Thumbsticks. Yeah, it really is a metric ton of games that don't have Legacy Thumbsticks and this could
fix that! Seems

I loved the XBOX 360 controller layout, and it's epic functionality, I really don't see why Microsoft doesn't import that over to the XBOX ONE controller.

"So legacy headsets will now work without the adapter?"

This is, most likely, the reason why Microsoft did the controller revision. It doesn't make the adapter moot but it's good to know that future owners of the console won't need it for their legacy headsets.

Because Microsoft is a terrible company that continues to dump on its fans. The day one controllers were made with very cheap faulty thumbsticks that would break easily. Later controllers had a slightly better, but still fragile thumbstick. I have broken
my 6th controller now and it's usually the "click" part of one of the thimbsticks. No I don't throw my controllers around. I am really unhappy with Microsoft in general and these cheap controllers are terrible. It's almost like no stress testing was done in
development. The 90 day warranty is laughable. That barely covers any retail store return policy.
