    My son loved it. But I didn’t really pay attention to the fact that it uses batteries but. Other than that I like the controller. And so does my son

    I have wrist problems so I was looking for a controller with buttons on the back that didn't weigh a ton, and this one fits the bill while not being too expensive. The buttons a a bit click-y and the joy sticks are a bit stiff but it fits my needs and works how I'd hoped so its perfect for me.

    This Zelda controller made a wonderful addition to my collection of Nintendo Switch items. I found this controller pretty decent for the price point. The buttons were responsive and the battery life was okay. I personally used rechargeable batteries [not sure if that was a no no or not] and found the controller to hold a decent charge before needing to recharge. Overall this controller is a good option if you are on a budget or you simply need an additional controller.

    I bought this for my 6 year old son for his Switch. He absolutely loves it! It’s so much easier to use versus the joycons. It’s lightweight, but not cheap. It connects right away every single time. So happy with this purchase. I might even purchase a 2nd one.

    I have arthritis in my hands so holding the switch or joy con controllers gets painful fast. Being a big Zelda fan I love the look of this controller and I really need one this size if I want to play. Pros; skin design, size, so far does what it's intended to do. Very excited about how easily it connects to the switch after past system issues. Cons; I'm disappointed in the quality of the controller and the battery life. While the controller works it definitely feels cheaply constructed. It's not soft and comfortable to hold like most brand name controllers I've owned. The parts have a loose, cheap, plastic feel to them and batteries only last a few days of quarenteed time (which for me is an excessive amount of play time). Why make a bad controller? I would happily have paid more for this controller to have typical wireless controller features including being rechargeable. I did choose based on price and the Zelda design so that's on me. I wish I had researched more before buying but the little research I'd done left me confused about the differences between this and other full sized controllers for the switch. Hopefully this review will provide someone else with better insight.

    Needed more controllers so my friends and I could play Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart but didn't want to spent 70 dollars on pro controllers. The biggest difference between these and the pro controllers are that the pro has vibration and is rechargeable but this takes 2 AA batteries. It works great and I have a pro controller so it was a great way to save money

    I recently got a switch lite an I felt the small analog sticks were akward to use as I kept pushing them in playing a high action game like Zelda so I wanted a better way to control it, an being the lite you need a wireless one plus it had Zelda look to it(which is cool with a gold color digital pad) unfortunately it takes only batteries no rumble( not a big deal) and it feels vary hollow...so I am now Im thinking of getting a regular switch that hooks up to my tv so I can get a better feeling controller... But it does feel better then controlling with the option it came with.. if you want travel only switch you can't go wrong if you have a switch with dock I suggest the more expensive one ten bucks more or something..ether way get Zelda an Mario best games so far.

    I love this controller and the design! It's great and easy to use, it requires 2 AA batteries which may turn off some people, but I have no problem with that. However I do only recommend this or any Power A wireless controller, if it is on sale. Paying $50 is a bit much, however I've gotten all of them for 39.99 or cheaper. So if on sale I recommend, if not than just fork over the extra $10 and get the official pro controller.

    We bought 3 of these so we could play our switch as a family. My husband and I like these ones as they fit better in our hands, my husband has some nerve damage in his fingers so it is hard for him to use the smaller controller that comes with the Switch. We've had these since June and they are still going strong.

    Wireless Nintendo Switch Controller

    This is the controller you want to have if you are trying to avoid "Joy Con Drift". I have tried playing other games with the Joy Cons but that drift makes games less fun to play. They have wired controllers but I personally like wireless, just make sure you have double A batteries on standby because they drain quick. If you play regularly I'd say about 3 to 4 days and the batteries are done. Also they're not to big to handle, my 8 year old can press/reach all buttons with ease.

    The controller is great if you don’t care about vibration or using AA batteries. It also feels somewhat cheap and has rattly buttons but it’s worth getting over the pro controller if you don’t feel like spending the extra $20+

    It is a great product over all. But there is a few things I would change. 1. The back paring button. It came off like 10 minutes after I got it when I was trying to see if it would connect to my phone via Bluetooth. 2. Phone Bluetooth compatibility. I think a product at this price should be able to hook up to your phone with Bluetooth. 3. The battery! The battery life is so short it is like 1 week of gameplay and I have to change the batteries. It’s just better off getting a rechargeable controller or rechargeable batteries.

    My review is purely opinionated. The price tag matches competitors controllers during Black Friday, meaning that the regular price for this item is equivalent to the discount price of competitor items; however, I feel like the controller is a bit small and also think that the materials are not that great. I have not used it for long, but compared to my Xbox controllers, this thing feels light and toy-like, not solid. It lacks some width and weight to it (in my opinion) but I have not had any issues so far.

    I wanted to try a 2nd controller for my switch, so I got this one because it was cheaper, and had a familiar feel to it. I'm highly pleased as it was breeze to set up, the design is awesome, and it's wireless.

    Good wireless controller that makes many games easier to play on the switch, especially Super Smash Brothers. Much better price than the original, so definitely worth the money.
