    Not a bad wired controller. While this isn’t a pro controller, it does the job when you want to be able to use a controller similar to it. The only complaints I have really is the buttons beating a little on the stiffer side, but it’s all good for most players in my opinion

    The controller feels good in the hands if you’re used to console gaming, buttons all work as expected, and the cord length is pretty decent. If you want a wired controller I’d stay this is a pretty good one for a good price.

    Affordable Switch Controller

    PowerA Wired Controllers are affordable controllers with great designs on them for the average fan. In my experience they sometimes go on to have drift issues, but that seems to happen regardless of controller I've tried, and they last plenty of time that make me think they are among the better options to get (especially if there are controllers with designs you love).

    Wow, wasn’t expecting this quality for such cheap controller. Purchased three. Only downside is that they aren’t wireless but besides from that it’s amazing. Strong and sturdy.

    This controller is leaps and bounds better than the stupid JoyCons! It actually fits in my hands and feels like a slightly cheaper version of the Xbox One controller, which I’m a huge fan of.

    Bought a pair of these to play games with two boys of grade school age who aren't particularly careful with their things. They feel a bit light, like the plastic isn't the highest quality, but they seem to work perfectly fine for actually playing a game. Can't really complain for how much they cost. You do lose out of wireless, NFC, and motion controls, but for most games, that doesn't matter anyway. So yeah, if you just need something basic, this will do the job perfectly fine. I think you can use this as a PC controller as well. My PC recognized it, at least.

    Works great on Nintendo Switch. Cord is very long and no need to charge or for batteries as it's not cordless. Nice inexpensive controller.

    I purchased this for my MacBook and it works seamlessly!! Controls are great, feels good in the hands, and the included chord is long enough. My only gripe is that you can’t use a regular micro usb cable bc Nintendo has a little groove indent that a normal cable can’t pass. Lame, but then again the controller is only twenty bux.
