Xbox One Extra Controller

Yeah, didn't think so, because it's their deal, not Microsoft, so they are just pairing together both to sell more of the console in their stores instead of others.

 

Are you wired?

I am wireless. It's 2013. You should be wireless by this point in time. I really dislike the wires on my old school systems like SNES, Dreamcast, N64 etc. That junk just gets in the way and people end up tripping over the cords. I really enjoy the wireless option.

Post again in one of the support forums.

I have never used a wireless adapter but i would suggest trying to connect via cable,if it works my guess would be a faulty adapter.

My guess is you bought the wrong device for the wrong console.

Can you give us some information on your sons console, the model? (white (launch, pro), black with flat black (elite), shiny weird looking (slim), shiny, looks like a book (slim 2))? For instance, a hard drive for a launch, pro, elite system won't work on
a slim or slim 2 console. Perhaps you could of bought a third party wireless adapter as well? Was it used?
