    It does its job, it’s a great Addition to my console’s. At first I struggled to connect because I have 4 controllers connected so I needed a way to disconnect the others a Ms connect this one. But overall it all worked out. So far I haven’t had to charge for days so I don’t know how long it’ll last on 1 charge.

    A bit small for my bigger hands, but overall a very comfortable remote. And the old-school characters from Nintendo on Super Nintendo graphics from what I grew up with; it’s an added bonus

    Love the compact size of this controller, ability to travel with if you need to which I will when I head to GA in a week. Being similar to the Xbox controller it’s a seamless transition when switching between consoles.

    This controller makes the Switch fun again. I had off brand controllers before but had issues and getting back to Nintendo branded ones made all the difference

    I really wanted to like this controller but I was so bummed out that it doesn't have HD rumble. It's comfortable but it doesn't have vibration motors. I'm going to return it because of that. I really like the design though!

    Pros: Everything is responsive, from the buttons to the control sticks, and it’s light enough to hold for hours at a time without feeling weighed down by it. Cons: There is also no rumble nor NFC support.

    I love this product. The joycons are great but they have plenty issues. This is a fantastic old-school controller. However, Best Buy please find a way to make sure this doesn’t get in the hands of USPS. Messed up delivery

    Best Switch controller

    This is the only Nintendo controller you’ll need if you’re playing Fortnite on switch. The programmable back button is key to keeping your thumbs on the sticks and jumping and opening chest. It will make your win rate percentage higher. I also use control freak from rings to dampen the stick movement.
