QUOTE(gnsumas @ Apr 16 2010, 04:23 PM) They do not replace old batteries. They teach you how to remove batteries so you can remove them before throwing the controller as you shouldn't throw batteries with your regular trash. Is this official? Probably someone can e-mail Sony themselves and confirm whether do they offer battery replacements for a fee or something. EDIT: QUOTE I just got word back from SCEA.
Sony's official stance is that after twelve months it's out of warranty and Sony therefore offers absolutely no support.
Their official answer is to purchase another controller, or use a USB cable. The person I was in contact with apologised and mentioned that his friend had managed to replace the battery on his own though.
Well I guess we know the answer now! SourceThis post has been edited by ffrulz: Apr 16 2010, 06:37 PM |

EDIT: SourceYou could replace with a lithium-ion batt, but it would be more trouble than its worth. The sticks also seem to lose calibration after a year or two (at least mine do) and become a pain to use  |

There's a Sony branded USB cable for the DS3 controllers sold separately and they are longer than the ones supplied with the consoles. |
