1. What kind of controllers were you looking for to go along with the headsets? The standard controllers?"
Answer: The controller’s features would require 24 Sensors, Multi-Function trackpad, dual-stage trigger, HD haptic feedback, a rechargeable battery, and compatible with headset. These features appear to be part of the “standard controller”.
