Enter Stage Rite Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Xbox wasn’t content with just one backside-shaped controller. To come full circle(s) with the release of the cheeky red controller for Deadpool & Wolverine, Microsoft is throwing the antihero’s clawed comrade a bone with a custom Wolverine-inspired Xbox Wireless Controller. Inspired by Wolverine’s iconic blue and yellow suit and, ahem, “Adamantium-tough tush,” this gamepad—like its snarky counterpart—is “designed by Deadpool” and touts a “firm (yet surprisingly comfortable) grip.” Adults (18+) worldwide will have the chance to snag one and pick sides in the legendary Deadpool-Wolverine rivalry by following the official Microsoft Instagram account and looking for posts with the hashtag #MicrosoftCheekySweepstakes. Deadpool, never one to miss an opportunity for a good (or questionable) marketing stunt, decided to “promote” the giveaway in true Deadpool fashion. He, well, put his money where his mouth is (so to speak) by renting out a giant billboard in Alberta, Canada—a not-so-subtle nod to Wolverine’s Canadian roots. Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine will reach cinemas July 26. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xbox-teases-Wolverine-themed-controller-to-go-with-Deadpool.866149.0.html https://www.cnet.com/tech/gaming/now-theres-a-wolverine-butt-xbox-controller-to-go-with-deadpool/ Images: Xbox Wire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
