    I bought this bc I have trouble getting used to the controls in the switch lite. But this controller does NOT WORK WITH SWITCH LITE. It plugs in with a USB to the switch, but not the lite. So I’m sure it works great if u have a regular switch. I had to return.

    I get these controllers all the time to play Smash. They get the job done, but they tend to break after about 2 months of heavy use, which is fair.

    I bought this for someone else who grew up with a GameCube system and he really enjoys it! Certain games just feel better with this controller and we haven't had any issues with input. It's also actually helped as a work around to the joy con drift issue at times.
