Product didn’t work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product was purchased brand new. Tried it out as soon as we got home. It didn’t work. Almost not worth the 40 minute drive each way to return it. Disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Controller quality
great quality
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is well built and works just fine. I prefer the wired, full size controller over the tiny wireless ones. My hands are too big for that!

Great Controller!

I would recommend this to a friend Great Controller for under $30
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my opinion and the experience I had with this controller is awesome, my Joy-Con's Analog Stick keeps drifting so I decided to buy a wired controller. While people might say that it feels cheap and the weight is so light, I actually like this controller. The analog sticks don't feel cheap. They kind of feel like an Xbox 360 Analog Stick. The D-Pad is really "BIG" so don't worry about that small D-Pad. The way the buttons are placed is ok. You have to get used to it in order to really like this controller. Though, the plus, minus, capture, and home button are small that's not a big deal for me. I think it is great that they are small so you don't accidentally press them. The ZL and ZR buttons have a "springy" feel to them and them kind of have a slow feedback but, I like that in controllers. The L and R buttons are great, they're not "springy" they feel alright. Overall 5/5. I'm just hoping that the analog stick doesn't drift like what other people have experienced.

This Controller is Terrible, Do Not Buy
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I first bought this controller, it was awesome. It felt comfortable and it was responsive. After a few weeks of using it though, it started drifting badly. However, I was able to fix the drifting...but then the buttons started sticking. But I was also able to fix the sticky buttons....AND THEN IT STARTED DRIFTING AGAIN IN A FEW HOURS. And the next day, the right trigger became unresponsive. Normally, Nintendo is good about making products that are functional, but this controller is cheap garbage and a waste of 25 dollars. DO NOT BUY THIS CONTROLLER.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:C stick
These controllers are garbage!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seriously, no C buttons. The original N64 controllers had C buttons, not a C stick. The C buttons work so much better for games like Pokémon Stadium, Golden Eye, etc. Very disappointed by this design! This is nothing like the original N64 controller, you'd be better off just using the Nintendo switch pro controller.

Will not hold up for smash.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recently bought this, played with it for a few weeks. Now the buttons are not registering on the switch and the C stick is constantly among down in the neuteral position. Going to see if I can get my money back.

Defective. Very prone to joystick issues.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bad quality. Have gone through 7-8 of them and all but one has developed joystick issues. Buttons are inconsistent in terms of manufacturing.
