- Pros mentioned:Connectivity
great for switch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son loves this controller and it syncs up super fast.
I would recommend this to a friend Would not pair
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not sure how this controller would work with all systems, but with the Nintendo Switch, it was impossible to pair. I do not believe this was user errors, as a few reviews had the same problem. The second controller I purchased was a Nintendo brand controller and paired in minutes.

Cute Pokémon controller

No, I would not recommend this to a friend Power A Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son is obsessed with Pokemon, so I had to purchase the controller. It's solid for the most part but it drains AA batteries like nothing I’ve seen before. It will literally go through a set of batteries in a week after putting fresh ones in. I purchased two before I knew about the design flaw but other than that they've served their purpose.

I would recommend this to a friend Own 4 would buy again
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These controllers work. Make's hooking up the switch to your TV and a group of people huddles around playing a lot more fun. Would recommend these controllers. They are very light, feels a little cheap, but I own four so that's saying something.

- Cons mentioned:Stick drift
Stick Drift
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 2nd Power A controller for the Switch. First one suffered left-stick drift after about one-year. This one suffered right-stick drift 3 months after purchase. The drift gets progressively worse until it's unplayable. It's too bad, because like other reviews, this controller really feels great (when it works) - and the mappable buttons are awesome.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Size
OK for an extra controller
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent extra controller, wouldn't use it as my daily driver though. Was a bit of pain to get paired but now it works fine. Quality matches the price point, I much prefer the size and build quality of the Nintendo Pro controller.
I would recommend this to a friend Better Docked Experience
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller has better weight than the battery powered and wired controllers, also buttons, Dpad, and joystick feel really good. Great pickup if you play docked frequently.
I would recommend this to a friendTHANK YOU BUS DRIVER
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller is nice with the pikachu and stuff but my letter did not come with it but its alright,also the packaging is not good because its just cardboard glued together,oh and lastly the delivery man did not put in in the front doo so its hard to find but overall the product itself is good.

Don’t waste your money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had this for a month and a half and 4 of those weeks I was out of town and did not use it. It already drifts right, and I bought it because my switch joycons drift left, lol. And the left control squeaks.... Save your money!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend As pleased with product as I thought we would be!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After much research on what controller he wanted, while he isn't a huge Pokémon OR Pikachu fan he really dug the graffiti! That was the main reason he chose that very controller. He has been happy since the purchase and used the controller everyday since.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Overall performance
Battery doesn't last
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery stops holding a charge after a couple of months. This is the second PowerA controller to do that in a row. Up until battery issues, controller is great.
