    This device has an amazing battery life. The grip feels very nice and can easily be held for long durations of gameplay.

    Quality, but counterintuitive

    I knew it when I bought it, but I didn't realize I'd have such a problem with the button layout. Having the buttons all below the analog stick on the right is just impossible for me to get used to. Every single game system, including Nintendo's (when they've had it at all) have placed the buttons above the analog stick and I've become so used to it, that I simply can't use this layout naturally. If you don't have an issue with that, it seems like a fine controller. I could barely scratch a couple hours using it for AC3, and I had to drop it...ingrained muscle memory is just too deep I guess. It's too bad too, I was looking forward to it...even had Nintendo stayed with the layout for the classic controller, it would have been fine (doesn't have to mimic the 360 or PS3, just close enough that people can transition). I recommend waiting for a third party controller that uses a more standard layout.

    Great controller for shooter games or RPG games. Brings the standard feel of console gaming to the Wii U for those who just don't want to use the motion controllers.

    Usually takes a few tries to get it connected to the console. Once it's connected, it's a fantastic controller.

    Only reason I don't give 5 stars is due to the button layout. I am accustomed to the more traditional button layout on other consoles. So remembering that A & B and X & Y are switched gets nerve wrecking at times. But still great idea instead of using the original Wii controllers for some games.

    Many games need this controller for coop play. If you have used a Xbox controller, you will find that the controller feels similar. Overall a good accessory.

    This controller feels more like a xbox 360 controller. Feels good in your hands. For when you don't feel like using the game pad. I use it for smash bros. good controller.

    What's the point of having Wii U if you dont have this pro controller?

    This is a great controller and the battery lasts a very long time. I have only charged it a couple times since I bought it.

    Super happy with this one. Much better feel than using the actual Wii pad, not so heavy or wide apart. Doesnt work with every wii game, but thats alright.

    Great for Bayonetta series, Hyrule Warriors, Mario Kart, and Smash! Easy controller to use and it's great if you aren't a big fan of the tablet controller or wii motes.

    I find myself "lost" using this controller over the one with a screen yet it does serve its purpose.

    This is by far a better controller in reguards to battery life. My grandkids play on our WIIU all the time and I rarely have to charge these controllers.

    Controller feels and handles great! A great alternative to the Wii U gamepad and excellent option if you prefer a more old-school approach to gaming.

    It would be nice if Nintendo would quit trying to be too different, they should sell this controller with the Wii U. This controller feels and plays great.
