Kids fight over it, Dad loves it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My kids and me (the Dad!) LOVE this controller. The vibrant colors, especially when charging, provide a nice aesthetic. But, more importantly it holds and plays well. Buttons easy to push, comfortable, works like a charm with our Switch. Easy setup, and really impressed with how long it holds a charge -- we go days between playing and it still has battery ready for next gameplay. We'll probably be buying another one soon to replace the standard Joy-Cons -- my kids always fight over this controller! :)

Great Controller to Use for Nintendo Switch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is perfect and very easy to use for the Nintendo Switch. It is very colorful when in use because it lights up when you press the buttons on the controller. I actually prefer to use this type of controller versus use the joycons that come with the switch itself.
