Anyone have their controller cords coil up?

[Chojin]

Yeah, but only with my PS2 controllers. I've always rolled up my controllers the same way but my PS2 controller just went nuts and went beyond coil till the rubber encasing the wires started to come off. The wire looks like it's been partially chewed to some extent. =/

I don't wrap them around the controller, but instead loop the cords like you do a garden hose and then keep it together with a twisty tie, it seems to work better and reduce coiling.

I notice coiling the most with GC pads.

Same, except I've recently switched from ties to rubber bands. Coiling around the controller is for amateurs.

Time to invest in some cordless.... any good ones for PS2?

Controller cords are already tied and folded when you buy them new, so you just need to gently fold them back to their natural state when putting them away. The wavebird's cord is the easiest to manage IMO.

That's what I do. I hate it when my friends finish playing games at my house and then wrap the cord around the controller.

Strangely, I haven't had the cord-wrapping problem really bad since the SNES days.

Personally, when mine did wrap, I just pulled controller out of the system, stretched the cord out by hand (I have a large wingspan with my arms) and plug it back in and that would usually do it. If it didn't, I just sat further back and stretched the cord as far back from the system as possible without tensioning it. 99% of the time one of those two would fix the problem, the other 1% I just assume the cord had been posessed by the Devil or something
