    You're not playing the switch the correct way if you don't have this controller. Great for Mario Kart, BOTW, Mario Party, Pokemon Arceus and most other games. Great controls!

    Bought this as a my third controller for the switch. Feels great in the hands especially when playing on the TV. Comes with USB C cable to charge on the dock. Responsive on while in game. Great with Street fighter! Use it on the go also to reduce strain.

    Nice controller. A little pricy in my opinion, but it is better than the original joy con.

    The joy-cons are the best (because you can use them as two separate controllers), but this is a really good full-sized controller.

    The rumble and sturdiness of this controller makes it feel great in the hands. Do not buy any other third party controller.

    The price is far too much unless you got a coupon(s). Why Nintendo priced it so high, I have no idea except that they just want money.

    If you’re out like me and you’re use to playing PlayStation or Xbox and you get a Nintendo switch you must get one of these pro controllers! The joy cons are way too small for my hands so this makes gaming on the switch perfect for me!

    Although the controller may be a bit pricey, the controls are smooth and the design is great. Like the joy-cons, this remote has motion controls for games that implement it. For games, like Zelda BOTW, I prefer using the Pro Controller than the joy-cons.

    I use it every day for BOTW & Mario Odyssey. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the price. If you can grab it on sale do it!

    It feels more comfortable holding this controller than the controller that comes with the Switch. The buttons are closer together.

    This game pad is a must have. I like that it has a nfc reader so I can use amiibo cards with. The grips are comfortable and this is easier to charge than the joycons.

    The pro controller is so worth it. I love that the Switch is portable, but if you're playing in console mode ever, this is so worth it.

    Brought this for my kids as the controls in the remote which came with switch started not responding fast enough after many hours of playing. This controller is definitely an upgrade, worth the money.

    Great controller. Nintendo obviously took a lot of inspiration from the X-Box controller and that is a good thing! They even did one better and added an internal rechargeable battery.
