Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the design, comfort, and button placement of the Split Pad Compact Attachment Set for Nintendo Switch, citing its ergonomic design, ease of use, and improved joystick placement compared to standard controllers. However, customers are negative about the wired connection and the perceived lower quality of some components, expressing a wish for wireless functionality and improved button feel. Many appreciate the aesthetically pleasing design. The price point relative to the perceived quality was also a point of contention for some users.

    Product is as advertised, a little pricy but this specific model gives you an attachment that allows you to use ANY of HORI's other split pads with it while plugged to a USB outlet on your Switch dock. The length is perfect. The design is well done and beautiful. Especially if you're a Pokémon fan!

    This remote offers an easier feel in the hand and puts less stress on your joints in your fingers and wrist. I’ve got really bad trigger finger and the way the remote fits to the hand more with built up handles and buttons on the back help a lot compared to the typical flat remotes you get as the standard. Definitely recommend, especially if you can get it on sale!

    It's a great controller for those with bigger hands who want to use handheld mode as well as when it's in controller mode. A perfect controller

    I really like this controller set, it is wired if you want to use it with the switch in dock mode. I do not mind this as i mainly use mine in handheld. Its very cute and the controller is bigger than the regular joycons and I find this to be more convenient as my hands dont cramp as quickly. Also no drift as of june 2025.

    The D pad is excellent for platformers coupled with the turbo option, since it lacks some of the features with the regular joycons the system won’t heat up as much during handheld mode At 50% off, what’s not to love?

    I upgrade my switch to the oled model and gave my wife the old switch. She saw these and fell in love with the color. She put them on as soon as she got home and loved the nee look. She rates this product 5 stars!

    Much Better Than Standard Joy-cons (& Lavender!)

    These are better than stock joy-cons in every way, & there’s a LAVENDER option (giving a very good SNES nostalgia vibe). The cord does not disconnect when playing on a TV though, which is not terrible but also not ideal (it does give a good old-schoolness to it tho). & it comes in lavender.. Did I mention the lavender part ??
