    A great controller that stands above the rest

    This controller has great build quality, nice sizable buttons, and it feels great in the hand. Sadly some of the features they charge more for are not as good as expected. For instance the vibration is not as strong as the joycons so some games you may not feel as much kick as you would with just joycons. Even the amiibo functionality comes as a moment of "yeah its there but i really never use it that often." Other than those gripes this is a great controller if you want something more substantial than the small size of the joy cons.

    Very comfortable controller. Absolutely love it when I'm playing at home. However if you use your Switch more when you're on the go, then a pro controller isn't a necessity.

    Best controller for the Nintendo switch. Feels great in the hand very sturdy. It HAS Vibration which is needed for me more than I had thought. It also has the ability to wake up the switch. Only one piece controller that will get my money for now.

    I prefer this controller to my xb1 and ps4 controllers as it feels solid, has great battery life (~40 hours), and is packed with features such as motion, hd rumble, and NFC reader.

    Excellent addition to my switch. I was looking for something along the lines of my Game Cube controller and this fit the bill; prefer the Nintendo line as I would expect it to be hassle free. It is, just works. Can "wake" my switch when cradled, simply.

    I much prefer this controller to the to the "Joy-Con" controller provided with the device. The buttons are further apart which makes for fewer wrong button mistakes. The joysticks seem to have a longer throw for the same response. As a result the controller feels more precise. This is is great for people with larger hands.
