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.

    I use this along with a charging stand. Sometimes you just get tired of holding the Switch. It’s light weight and feels good in your hand. Just wish it had feedback.

    Works well! In my opinion joycons are worth the extra price, but this controller can work with most nintendo switch games and feels comfortable to use.

    Nothing is better than the original but this was the next best alternative. My son says it’s “laggy” sometimes but it’s way better than playing with a broken remote

    This controller is so much better to use when you have your system placed into the docking system, the cord is unusually long as well which is very handy

    Got this for my Switch cause I like the feel of the controller better than what came on the Switch. Wireless might have been better but I'm old school.
