It follow the news of Microsoft's strategy with their Elite line of controllers and how it was impacted by feedback gathered at E3.
The company CMO Chris Capossela revealed that the steep price was something that they thought would limit its appeal but have since found a shortage has been evident at many leading retailers since its launch.
"Here's the product we totally underestimated," he said during an interview on Windows Weekly.
"If I could have built 10 times the number I built, I would have. We got that feedback at E3 that it was awesome, but maybe the price was a little too high, and so that influenced how many we produced.
