    I thought this was a Nintendo branded product when I originally bought it. It feels really light and slightly cheap, but I suppose it will do.

    Amazing controller for Mario kart fans

    The design is vibrant and detailed, capturing the fun and excitement of the game. It’s lightweight but feels sturdy in your hands, making it perfect for long gaming sessions. The buttons are responsive, and the joysticks provide smooth control, which is crucial for those tight turns and drifts in Mario Kart. I also love how comfortable the grip is—it’s ergonomic and fits perfectly in my hands. Whether you’re a casual player or a competitive racer, this controller adds a bit of extra flair and immersion to your gaming experience. Highly recommend it for any Nintendo fan

    A lightweight controller thats good for carrying around with your switch. It does take batteries but it comes with 2 AAs which is all it needs. Its pretty easy to set up and i havent had any problems with it. I dont know how durable it is but seems pretty well made. I personally like more dense controllers but its definitely worth its price.

    The box came all mangled and whatnot, but the controller itself was fine. It is very cheap feeling in the hands, and it has a little bit of weight to it when you add the AA batteries that come with it which I like. It does the job, and the extra buttons on the back are a nice touch.
