It's fairly crazy and irresponsible to create a device that interferes with itself.

Now that they are fairly old they rarely create a problem for us. More current Xbox systems still do create a problem it is just not as pronounced. We encourage folks to turn off the console and remove the batteries from the controller remotes. If the system is idle while powered the console and remote will continue to seek each other out in 2.4.
