Customers are saying

Customers love the Enhanced Wired Controller for Nintendo Switch because of its overall performance, affordable price, and appealing design. Users appreciate its ease of use, comfortable weight, and sufficient cord length. While the wired connection is a drawback for some, along with the lack of rumble and vibration features, many are happy to avoid battery issues. Compatibility with the Switch is also a plus for gamers.

    Power A is a third-party vendor. Unfortunately after two weeks of playing with it it stopped working . When I called Nintendo to ask if they could help me problem solve the issue they told me unfortunately they would not be able to help me because it was a power a product . Power away unfortunately does not have a direct phone number for me to call . I brought the product back to Best Buy and exchanged it for a new one and so far it has been fine. I was able to purchase a warranty on this product.

    A few months ago, I would have rated this 5 stars, but then it started malfunctioning: the right stick drifts, and this happens more and more frequently as time passes. The controller will randomly start sending up/down inputs from the right stick, even if you're not touching the stick at all. (I had this issue with their wireless controller as well). I don't think I'll be buying their controllers again, which is sad because I loved the size, shape, and layout.

    It works ok for a player 2. Not the best controller but for the price you can’t complain. It would be good for small children that might break controllers.

    Not bad, it’s maybe a little cumbersome to use because of the cord but overall it serves its purpose.

    I needed a cheap controller to play MK8D with my ex and roommates. This works fine, but feels cheap and kinda fragile. Feels like theres nothing in there

    Requires a USB port on your dock.

    Control is kind of stiff out of the box and you need to use up a usb port on the switch dock. So if you have any available it might be worth it.

      Hi, Monica. If your controller is still within the return period, then we highly suggest you to contact Best Buy for an exchange or replacement under their warranty. Thank you and stay safe! powera-alpine

    It’s cute. Wired controllers are not so comfortable to play, i think. But don’t regret that i bought it.
