    Wanted to grab some additional switch controller's. Once I opened the box I immediately did not like the way these guys felt. Super light and felt very fragile. But that is 20$ dollars controller's for you. These are great for kids. Wouldn't recommend for a more than average gamer.

    Very good controller. Only downside is the proprietary usb cable as they make you buy an expensive replacement cable for when it goes bad. Standard cheap usb cables don't fit into plugin. Replacement cable costs more than the controller!

    Bought this because I was sick of my joy-con controller breaking. I’ve replaced the left controller 3 times because the joystick gets stuck in left. So far this seems to work better than the joy-con controller ever did. Happy with the price and performance so far.

    Fantastic and inexpensive way to add another player. We love the idea of wireless, but not the price. Also, despite needing to be plugged in, this allows for no shortage of play time due to battery life or bluetooth connectivity issues. Thanks Nintendo!

    They are very cheap feeling but you get what you pay for. They still work so that’s a plus. They also Were not very expensive and they have very long cords so charging a wireless controller becomes a moot point

    I have little to no complaints of this. Button layout is pretty intuitive and fits my hands pretty well. No button stick or joystick lags. Only thing I would want is the cord to be a little bit longer so it would reach the couch, but I guess that is what the wireless version is for.

    Purchased this as an extra controller for my Nintendo switch. Works well and buttons are of decent quality. Only complaint is connecting to back of switch dock which is a slight annoyance but not necessarily a fault of the controller. Overall good controller for the price.

    Great option to have when people who DONT play videogames come over and want to play casually. OR Good option for 6 yr old son who likes to throw the controller. Smash this one, not my pro controller!

    I had purchased one earlier. Lasted a couple of years but the wire started coming undone. This one seemed a lot slower. So I used the wire and hooked up the older one. Winning again!

    Basic controller, but comfortable to use. Wired connection is micro-usb which is unfortunate but it does have support at the connection so unlikely it will come loose or wear out.

    Decided to pick this controller up because my kids kept forgetting to charge the main controller and it was always dead. That is no longer a problem! This controller obviously never needs charging and is comfortable to hold too ! Great alternative.
