What was the first wireless game controller?
Wireless game controllers have actually been around for quite some time. Atari experimented with wireless technology in the early 1980s. A prototype wireless system called the Atari 2700 never saw the light of day, but the same Radio Frequency (RF) technology was used for a set of wireless joysticks for the Atari 2600.

Can you put game controllers in checked luggage?
Yet, the controllers for most gaming consoles do have lithium batteries and you should pack them in carry-on baggage whenever possible. Smaller gaming consoles like the Nintendo Switch have lithium batteries and therefore should travel in hand baggage too.
