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.

Design wasn’t the best and connectivity issues
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller felt like it could break easily and ran into issues connecting with my switch via plug in. After turning the switch off and back on, I would have to unplug the controller and back in for it to connect.

Not Amazing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really unreliable. I've gone through 3 in about a month span just because they break, stop working properly, or just become unresponsive. Not the best controller by any standard.

Not the Best Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller felt cheap, there was also a bit of delay when moving the joystick. The price is good but you do get what you pay for.

Bad reviews were correct
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The prior reviews were correct . On day one The left stick stopped working properly and in games like Mario Odyssey, Zelda breath of the Wild , Mario kart , etc it moves the character backward automatically . I was hoping to save money but looks like I should go with the Nintendo Pro which I hear can also brake easily . Fingers crossed . Sad ... wished it worked ...

Needs more functionality

Third PowerA controller has issues
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only a few weeks after purchase, the right stick sticks in perpetual right. Super annoying when you're playing Animal Crossing. It's worse than vertigo. Spending more on the next controller (not a PowerA brand) will hopefully last more a little longer.
