			==Usage==
			To pair your controller, press the SYNC button on the console, then the sync button on the controller. Once it's paired, it should work like a normal pro controller. If pairing doesn't work this way, or your SYNC button is jammed or missing, you can pair it in the pairing menu from the gamepad by pressing HOME, Controller Settings, then Pair.
