    I bought this for my son. So far he hasn’t had any issues with it. But it has only been used a handful of times. It’s not bad from what I see. Of course everything is overpriced and every company is price gauging so you have to figure out what’s best for your needs. I got what I needed for my son. Nothing fancy and not the most money either.

    I bought this for my little girls birthday because she is always asking her dad and I to play games with her. Now we can hook it up to the tv and have our own controllers to play whatever game we would like instead of having to take turns on use a smaller screen.

    I already have 2 pairs of joy-cons and 2 pro controllers so of course I bought 2 of these wired controllers. Great for those party or holiday gatherings. Switch has a few 6 player games so always fun to play with the whole family.

    It is a good substitute for Joy Cons. That said, when I bought mine, a couple months after I did so my right joystick started acting weird. I will probably end up either trying to get it repaired or replaced since I bought the 2 year warranty with it.

    Very good overall controller if joy-con's aren't your thing. Responsiveness could be better, but as a budget controller for the Switch Console, this will do if you are in a pinch.

    The price is just right for this little workhorse of a controller. Add to that that it also has a headphone jack and this one is a keeper.

    Got this as an alternative to the more expensive pro controller. Works as intended. Feels sort of cheap, but is functional.

    I brought it for the price tag. I expected a bit better. I used it for PC emulated games mostly. As a controller for my Switch when playing party games like Mario Carts and Smash with friends, it was perfectly acceptable. The buttons feel nice, except for the analogs. They feel a little loose and flimsy. I did like the rim grip [ingrained on the rim of the finger rest], it helped it a bit. I had a little bit of trouble with it being detected in Steam and my emulator. Tip: It's listed as a Wireless Nintendo Core Controller.

    A good controller for a good price. This was half off when I purchased it. I personally like not having to worry about battery life so this is perfect for me.

    The controller feels great in the hand. However, it doesn't feature the any type of motion control required for some games. It doesn't track the physical movement of the controller. Also, the X button is stuck on the controller. I rarely press the button. I would invest more money for a more decent wireless controller.
