Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the quality, ease of use, and generous cord length of the Wired Controller for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2. Many appreciate its comfortable feel, similar to an Xbox controller, and its compatibility with the Nintendo Switch. While the wired connection is a drawback for some, others appreciate the lack of battery charging and drift issues.

    Great controller. Requires a USB to USB-C converter if you want to use it on a Switch Lite. Totally worth using though if you are an avid player and want to preserve the switch lite's joysticks.

    Our joycons just don't work well and we're tired of messing with them. This is a lot nicer looking and easier to use.

    Extra controllers for multiplayer games. As expected for price and quality. Not the everyday use controllers but when we want to get everyone on to race.

    This is a good budget friendly option for the Pro Switch controller. I'm sure the Pro feels a little nicer, but we bought 2 of these for our kids, and we've heard no complaints.

    Good controller that is much cheaper than buying the wireless version and it has a nice 10 foot cord, which has allowed 2 kids to play with the wires and 2 to use the wireless. Good bang for the buck.

    Great inexpensive addition to the switch. It’s not wireless which you can get for about double the cost but with a screen size smaller than an iPad on the switch do you really need it?

    I needed a real controller to play the Switch. This pad feels great and is responsive. The kids liked it so much I had to buy a second one. Is wired so it does not need batteries or recharging.

    I bought this on clearance for 12 dollars and I love it. The feel is just amazing. Playing switch games that dont require motion control are much better.

    This controller is durable and effective. I would recommend this to anyone who can sit about 7 feet from their switch console since you can not unplug the device and play. But it is worth it if you don’t mind the cord

    This remote was a great purchase. My 6 and 8 year old found it very easy to use. They prefer to use this remote over the ones that came with the system. Great buy and price point.

    Had to get this because I don't find the switch square controller comfortable to hold. I was more familiar with this type controller and even though it is corded still prefer it over the wireless.

    Cheap switch controller, it’s not a wireless controller, but the cord it comes with is long enough. The controller feels good in the hands, it’s also really comfortable. Overall amazing controller.
