My grandson loves anything Zelda. Controller is well made and works very well for a 9 yr old playing. Great buy.

Controller was about $4 more then the plain version. Totally worth it the art work is fantastic. Plugged into the Switch at home and it recognized with no issues at all. It has like 10ft cord I can plug it into the base station and sit in my Recliner playing with the kids.
The best part is as a Human Adult my hands are NOT compatible with those small joy cons... so having this took a lot of strain off of my hands when I'm playing.

I thought this during last Black Friday for $15 I've been looking for a pretty good standard controller if my joycons need to be charged the Pro Controller for switch is usually $60 overall this is not as good as a Pro Controller but if you looking for a second controller for a friend or something if you're under a budget this is not too bad but don't spect amiibo reading or motion controls

I bought this controller on clearance for $20 and I wouldn't recommend paying more for it than that. The controller had cheap feeling construction. No rumble or motion sensors. Great for having an additional player in mario kart, or smash. But having to deal with the wire on top of the not as good quality, I would not recommend this to anyone as a primary controller.

Satisfied with how it feels, but the texture doesn't feel that good, the cable is a nice bonus.

The graphic design is one of the best in terms of colors and print among the Zelda themed Switch controllers. The thumb joysticks are flat on top, which is a little off-putting. They could have included a raised rubber tactile pad or something. The controller's wired, which is unfortunate. I would have opted for the graphics and included wireless functionality if there were offered together, but they're not.

the controller looks great and works fine. But I did not realize that it does not have the motion sensor built in the remote. So playing breath of the wild with this remote is very difficult and basically pointless. This remote is good for games that do not require the motion sensor.

Sometimes I prefer wired controllers over wireless for long game nights so you wont have to worry about battery lives. The cord is long enough you dont have to worry about playing on top of your tv.
Theres a bit of a plastic cheap feel to the buttons but is better than paying twice the price for a wireless controller. Good if you dont like the nunchuck feel of the regular switch controllers

If you looking for a cheap straight forward "themed" controller for your PC ( yes i said PC, windows 10 has the drivers for this controller. Can even be used on Steam ) and you don't mind the lack of sensors, for $25 bucks this is a must. I mean, It's a Legend of Zelda Nintendo Switch controller.
By the way, it's very light, and not too chabby buttons feels, and its very comfy in your hands.

I like the look and feel of the controller, although the paint job seems a little imperfect and I'm worried that the burrs I see will lead to it prematurely rubbing off the nice artwork. Also it's a nice value controller, but I wish I knew it didn't have rumble or amiibo functionality like the joy cons or pro controllers do
