Customers are saying

Customers are enthusiastic about the wired controller for Nintendo Switch, praising its budget-friendly price, comfortable design, and long cord that provides ample reach. However, some users have expressed concerns regarding its wired nature, lack of advanced features like rumble and motion sensors, potential durability issues, drifting joysticks, and occasional reports of defective units.

    My little brother wanted another controller for his friends to use. I bought this one for his birthday and he seems pretty satisfied with the purchase. He also really likes the legend of zelda decal on the joystick. Pretty decent price as well.

    My son loved this controller, but the wires tore pretty easily, had to replace within 3 weeks the first time, second one working well.

    Daughter likes this more than the joycons, buttons feel a bit mushy but it does provide a bit more comfort using a traditional controller setup.

    Good controller but honestly it’s ok, the control stick sticks out, it’s no GameCube controller, but it gets the job done, go for it.

    More comfortable than the stock controller and great looks but did not like that it was a corded controller. I was not aware of that until I got it home.

    A decent controller but after being used to wireless for so long I was surprised at how much having a cord again inconvenienced me.

    This controller has a comfortable feel to it. The Zelda design is attractive and the wired controller means you won’t run the risk of the controller dying in the middle of play. Very convenient and a smart purchase.

    a much cheaper option out of the Switch controllers. Light and gives the normal feeling of the controllers you are use to playing with. Good option as well to have for when others play

    Only problem I had with this controller was if the wire gets damaged its hard to find a replacement would urge people to get the protection plan

    Remote is very lightweight and almost feels cheap, however, the price is excellent and it works just fine. Just don't squeeze too hard.

    Needed a couple of extra controllers for the Switch and these for the bill awesomely in Zelda glory. Hopefully they last for as little as I use them.

    This wired version is pretty nice. USB plugin long cable. It feels just about the same as a wireless (analogs feel a bit bigger though) great cheap alternative to getting a wireless as those usually run $70 or so

    These are great, low-cost controllers and hold up very well to 10-year olds and adults with anger-management issues. The detachable cord is a huge plus in my book.

    The PowerA Switch controllers are good and reasonably price. The controller feels solid and the buttons feel nice as well, the joysticks are a bit big, but smooth.

    Not a super expensive controller. Worked longer than the second one I bought. But seems to drift a lot. Only had it for a month.
