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.

    A Worthy $20 Controller

    I needed an extra controller for playing with friends that were a budget controller--not like the pro controller or joy-cons (I own both of those) and this was a perfect solution. Pros: + Budget-friendly + The grip and feel of the controller is comfortable for larger hands + Buttons feel nice when pressed + Length of USB cable (10ft) Cons: - Light-weight (some prefer heavier weighted controllers) - Must plug in via cable and USB port on Switch to use

    We use this with our switch on the tv so. With kids can have a full controller. They like this just as well as the the controller that originally came with the console

    Bought this on sale for $17.99. I use this for PC gaming, and RetroArch recognizes and auto-configures this controller.

    Big improvement over the joycons. Not quite as nice as an Xbox or ps controller but still pretty solid.

    I purchased this while during black Friday and paid $10. I wasn't sure if it would live up to my son's expectations but, he loves it and use it often. I definitely would recommend this.

    GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO JOYCONS

    These were bought due to the known drifter issue with the analog stick. I've tested and tried numerous methods but nothing worked and decided to go along with traditional full-sized style controllers instead of the tiny Joycons. Still waiting for Nintendo's repair center to open to either replace or repair my drifting Joycon.

    I wanted a cheap controller for when we play multiplayer games. This controller fits adult hands better than the mini wireless controllers.

    Got this for $20 instead of $70 for the Nintendo pro controller. It works just fine though occasionally I feel like I have to press a button extremely hard to work. Overall not bad for the price!

    For the ones with younger kids who are just learning how to play or old school Nintendo fans this is a must. Helps getting used to the smaller controllers easier.

    I think the Nintendo Wireless controller is the best on the market but it is very expensive for what it is. If you want a similar but lighter feeling option, pick these up.

    Wireless is not worth the price. The cord on the controller is plenty long enough at nearly 8 ft. The coating on the cord is susceptible to pealing as it gets twisted.

    The buttons feel a bit clunky, but the response To any input is immediate and the cable is long enough that you can play from a comfortable distance. For the price, that’s really good.

    This is a great option to Nintendo switch. You can play in front of the TV with this controller while others have the other controllers on other ways to play.

    Similar to the pro controller but this is not a wireless controller, this needs to be plugged in at all times in order to work. Comfortable and good cable extension.
