"The end of the year is shaping up to be a big one for SpongeBob SquarePants, as the hyper-energetic Goofy Goober fan has a new game out soon and a brand-new movie. To celebrate his big-screen return, Microsoft has revealed a new line of cursed Xbox controllers featuring the unblinking visage of SpongeBob. Just don't stare too long into the abyss, because it might stare back and offer you a greasy Krabby Patty to go."
"SpongeBob fans can pick up limited-edition versions of the regular Xbox controller and the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller. Both controllers feature the same graphic of SpongeBob--but the Elite Series 2 has "pants" on the handles--yellow thumbsticks, and an orange D-pad. The Xbox home button and X face buttons have also replaced SpongeBob's pupils, but he seems to be in good spirits over being slightly inconvenienced."
Microsoft introduced limited-edition SpongeBob-themed Xbox controllers, including both a standard controller and an Xbox Elite Series 2 variant. The Elite Series 2 adds "pants" on the handles, yellow thumbsticks, and an orange D-pad, while the Xbox home and X face buttons replace SpongeBob's pupils. Both controllers will be available through Xbox Design Lab with customization options such as metallic triggers and D-pads, rubberized grips, and engravings. The releases coincide with SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide, a 3D platformer starring SpongeBob and Patrick, with preorder editions priced at $40 and $90. A full-size SpongeBob claw machine from Arcade1Up is also available for preorder at about $600.
