    Love the pro controller! I got one around the time the switch released, my original is still in working order and wanted a second one for two player games, works great!

    ​The 8BitDo Ultimate Controller is a feature-rich, third-party gamepad that stands out as a compelling alternative to the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, especially for gamers seeking versatility across multiple platforms.

    Battery life is amazing on the pro controller! Got tired of the joy cons constant drift and other third party controllers that wouldn’t last long. It feels really nice in hands and the build quality is amazing. Highly recommend it specially if your playing games like Fortnite or Overwatch.

    Got it on sale but I’d say that it isn’t as intuitive as I’d like. Battery life is impressive. The controller still displays full battery and it was only charged once before use, about two weeks ago. Easier to use for adults with big hands. Build quality is good and feels pretty solid.

    I’ve been playing on Xbox for the last 10 years and after getting this it made the Switch much more comfortable to use. The layout is identical to an Xbox controller but the rubber texture on it makes it even more comfortable to use. It’s the perfect size and shape.

    Great item, my son loved it. He asked for this for Christmas so we were happy it was in stock. Order online and then run in and pick it up.

    I learned that this can be my only Pc controller for steam and switch controller. Hands down best controller ive used. I prefer it being wired via usb compared to the Bluetooth because of reaction time and Bluetooth compatibility issues with other devices. Great product and good reviews all around

    I've been content using the joy cons on the Switch since I got it, but when I bought Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3, I decided I needed something more traditional to get the full effect of the game. I'm glad I did. This controller rocks and is much more comfortable and familiar. I still like the joy cons for MarioKart, though.

    Joycons are cool and all if you want to lay in bed comfortable but i could not get used to the joysticks. This pro controller feels amazing and is a worthwhile purchase.

    Late adopter to the switch, mostly play PS4, so definitely needed the pro controller. The Joy-Con buttons are just too small to play for a long amount of time. Still a little more expensive than other controllers, but seems like Nintendo's got a stranglehold on pricing anyways...
