I bought a MvC2 MadCatz Tournament Edition stick like three weeks ago, and everything was fine. I’ve been careful with it, haven’t been rough, it hasn’t even left my living room.
A few days ago, I tried to turn on my Xbox360 with the stick plugged in, and the system just wouldn’t turn on. When I unplugged the stick, the console powers on fine. Other controllers and my SE stick don’t have these problems in any of the 3 USB ports.
If I turn my console on without the stick plugged in, and then I plug it in, the stick doesn’t turn on. Pressing buttons or the Xbox Guide button does nothing. I’ve tried the lock switch.
What’s going on? I have been able to get it to work a couple times by turning the console on first, and then plugging it in (I have more success with the back USB port), but today I can’t get it to work at all. Does MadCatz have a manufacturers warranty? I bought it from Gamestop, I don’t think they’d refund/exchange it.
Halp.
