They aren’t already? I’ve been using one to play clone hero for months now without issue.
Very nice controller btw. Though I was a little disappointed to find out the mechanical strum bar version actually uses the same haptic sensor with unconnected mechanical switches for the feel. Not that I’ve noticed it while playing or anything, I only found out when I opened it up to check if I could remove the whammy (I’m a lefty), just not what I expected.
