Which Original Xbox accessory did you buy first?

Thinking back to my very first Original Xbox accessory purchase makes me nostalgic. Which Xbox peripheral did you buy first and why? Was it the iconic Duke controller you couldn’t resist, the sleek S‑Controller for a slimmer grip, or perhaps that chunky chatpad for in‑game messaging? Tell us about the decision: price, design, functionality, or just that neon color that caught your eye. Did it enhance your gaming sessions immediately, or end up gathering dust?

The first Original Xbox accessory I bought was the Xbox Controller S. It felt much more comfortable and precise than the standard controller, making gaming sessions more enjoyable. It really enhanced my experience and became my go-to controller for all my games.

I bought a second controller immediately - the Original Xbox was all about local multiplayer, so having four-player capability was the top priority from day one.
