    This was significantly cheaper than the standard black controller, and no-one minds the pattern, in fact the kids quite like it. Save some money!

    We purchased this controller because we got tired of the Switch controller drift. It didn't disappoint. It lacks the rumble feature but it doesn't make that much of a difference.

    I love the design and it's a very lite weight unit. My only gripe is that it only takes 2 AA and you are not able to charge via a USB-C cable. My son loves it!

    Was very promising. Lssted longer than the pro series. Never had issues with the joysticks. Three buttons just start sticking and don't come back up.

    So much better than the little joycons. I can actually play a game like Mario with my kid now without getting a cramp or blisters. And the best part, no drift.

    My son got this for Christmas. It works perfect. I did buy rechargeable batteries. Much cheaper that way. It’s connects to the Switch or even when the switch is connected to the tv.

    This is overall a pretty great controller especially at the price point versus others. I own both the Nintendo Brand and PowerA and yes there is a difference, but for the significant price difference it's worth to go for the PowerA. I do like the programmable buttons on the back of the controller which come in major handy especially in certain games. I definitely would recommend for someone trying to save some money wanting another controller.
