    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

    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.

    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

    Amazing! My husband wanted his own since he always uses our sons clear one. He says it’s way better and feels High quality. They are both switch witless but this one does seem better than the clear.

    Uses batteries so you’ll never worry about a rechargeable not holding a charge. No rumble though. Not that the Nintendo switch original controller rumble is that great. Oh hate the stupid buttons on the controller grips. Whose stupid idea was that? That’s the only thing I don’t like
