    It is a wired only controller that must be plugged into the switch dock when playing on a television.

    If you are playing traditional games this controller is great. Debated the cordless, but decided on this. It has a long cord so is very functional. Much cheaper than the the cordless.

    Controller isn't bad. It's a little on the light side for my taste. The official Nintendo Pro controller is weightier and feels much more well made, but this one is ok as a backup.

    Works as expected. Can detach from cord, but only works when cord is plugged in. Cord is long enough that I haven't had any issues with it, so a nice, cheaper alternative to the pro controller.

    Very good product for the price. I use this more than the joy cons since it doesn’t require a charge and the wire is very long.

    It was on sale, and cost 60% less than one single Joy-Con wireless controller. Yes there is a wire, but at 10-ft long it has been more than sufficient for my use case.

    A Worthy $20 Controller

    I needed an extra controller for playing with friends that were a budget controller--not like the pro controller or joy-cons (I own both of those) and this was a perfect solution. Pros: + Budget-friendly + The grip and feel of the controller is comfortable for larger hands + Buttons feel nice when pressed + Length of USB cable (10ft) Cons: - Light-weight (some prefer heavier weighted controllers) - Must plug in via cable and USB port on Switch to use

    GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO JOYCONS

    These were bought due to the known drifter issue with the analog stick. I've tested and tried numerous methods but nothing worked and decided to go along with traditional full-sized style controllers instead of the tiny Joycons. Still waiting for Nintendo's repair center to open to either replace or repair my drifting Joycon.
