    I was debating on this or the wireless but I am pretty happy with this controller. Immediately links up to your switch once you are at the menu. A+

    the wire is long enough to use comfortably and it feels great. My only complain is that it is not compatible with all games (for example, civ 6)

    While some games are hard to play with the switch, this remote solves all those problems. It feels better than an xbox or playstation controller.

    If you can't afford the Pro Controller this is a nice substitute for that. You won't need to charge it and it has a pretty long cable.

    This is a much better value than the expensive wireless controllers that cost three times as much as this and do exactly the same thing.
