<p>This wild <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Three-Body_Problem_(novel)" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Three-Body Problem</a> controller from PB Tails &#8211; designed around the Ghost Silver Crush as a new Droplet edition &#8211; is only available in China. However, you can get a similar Chromeposite Mirror controller, except with upgraded TMR &#8211; rather than Hall Effect &#8211; sensors.</p>



<p>You don&#8217;t get The Three-Body Problem branding and related special inclusions, but you do get one heck of a multi-platform wireless controller for around $100 with the <a href="https://www.pbtails.com/products/metal-crush-mirror-nova" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PB Tails Metal Crush Chromeposite Mirror TMR</a>.</p>



<p>I previously reviewed the <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/pb-tails-metal-crush-defender-tmr-review" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PB Tail Metal Crush Defender TMR controller for IGN</a>, and came away impressed. This is no different.</p>



<p>As you can see in my video, if you&#8217;re in China, you get the shiny controller, pin, cleaning cloth, and &#8211; removable from its acrylic display case &#8211; a heavy chrome droplet that represents the small, manoeuvrable unmanned spaceships from The Three-Body Problem. While the non-Chinese version doesn&#8217;t feature any of that except for the controller and cleaning cloth, I&#8217;d say the arguably best-in-class TMR sensor upgrade more than makes up for it.</p>
