I'm not the one making unverified claims based on a single person's opinion from a YouTube video. If you're so certain it's impossible, which is your argument, you're the one that has to prove it.

Someone claiming something in a YouTube video without demonstration is literally hearsay and not proof. All you did was screencap paragraphs from that same youtube video script, which also proves nothing. Tell me, does that video cite a developer stating their intention to include an impossible macro for the sake of a special edition controller? I don't think so.

Why would that script even contain the codes if it weren't possible to do them? How did he find them? How would anyone know about them if they're supposed to be impossible? And on that note, why wouldn't the macro be a complex non-repeating fifteen-input code over an easy-to-remember easy-to-perform six input code that can be inputted rhythmically if it was actually supposed to be impossible?

There is so much logical inconsistency with your stance and I personally believe you're ignoring all of it because you took a YouTube video at face value and invested hundreds into a controller that only makes macro input more convenient. I'm beginning to get this image that you made this thread to address the buyer's remorse you no doubt felt as soon as you invested, so I'll directly answer the thread question in an attempt to end this ridiculous exchange.

You got to brag about owning a thing, didn't you? That should be "worth it" enough if you felt the need to do so.
