    Great controller but the lightning is a bit too much for me. Thought its cool but after a day or two I was annoyed by the lighting on my face while playing the game. Not for me

    Drift after one day

    I bought this controller two days ago in the store. I played Zelda ToTK for one full day with no problems. On day two, Link is running to the right without even touching the left joystick. The items menu is constantly moving to the right. The game is impossible to play.

    ended up returning, as it uses micro-usb for charging, not USB-C. they should make that more clear on the packaging

    This controller is horrible it loses charge quickly. Also the left little joystick doesn't work appropriately and it moves in opposite direction of where I want it to go.

    Bought on 5/14 and it's only 6/8 and this thing is totally useless. Stick drift hard right at all times. One week outside of the return policy. What a piece of garbage. Don't waste your money.

    The lights are cool, but this controller has issues. The joysticks feel stiff and rigid, the dpad and buttons are meh and I had constant disconnects while playing games. Additionally, I had multiple accidental presses of the two back paddle buttons. You can remove them, but the controller feels awful without them. Best look for a different controller.
