Is it turning off while you play or after you set it down for a while?

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

I don't see why it's all that annoying. It only takes a few seconds to turn back on. If you don't want it to turn off, try maybe just hitting a button every now and then? As for leaving a controller inactive for up to an hour, that just seems like a waste of power.

Yes, I like bears.

Can you please fix the title? And looking at the options in general, they are rather lacking on the Wii U.

Oh, so it's the controller sleep mode. Yeah, no, I'd actually prefer it if the playstation controllers turned off after a few minutes the way the Wii and Wii U controllers did, because the PS3 controller especially drains too fast if you just leave it like that...

You can check the power options to see if there's some way to increase the time before the controller goes to sleep, but I kinda doubt you'll find anything...

You know you can set the PS3 controller do turn off after 10 minutes right? I've always found it to have amazing battery life that way.

If mine turns off when I leave it, sometimes when I press a button and it reconnects something doesn't work right. It's like one of the sticks is stuck pushing upwards and I have to disconnect it. Anyone else get this? :s

No I did not know. Have you seen the settings section for the PS3 lately? I can't find anything there...

It's under power saving settings I believe.
