    Waste of money. Had it for the first month and my analogue sticks are all messed up. I’m a professional Mario kart racer and this definitely bums me out

    I was playing Luigi's mansion 3 first level and i couldn't run. I used the original switch controllers and the character was able to run with no issue on the first level of king boo run. I guess i have to return this faulty remote

    This controller times out constantly. If you burnt the money you would have spent on it, at least you would have momentary warmth.
