    Must have for actual gaming

    The pro controller is nice and an absolute necessity since the joycon is terrible for long gaming sessions with adult hands. Wish it was based more on the PS4 controller with the analogue sticks but it’s not terrible. The grips are a nice touch.

    Was not originally going to purchase this to go with my switch, however after watching some videos and hearing some people talk about it I decided to purchase it. Glad I did as it makes it feel like a classic gaming experience rather than an innovative one.

    Almost necessary, since it allows you to continue play once your Joy-Cons' batteries die. It's been indispensable for completely continuous play since I don't have a charging station for the Joy-Cons yet. Feels great in the hands and responds just as well.

    I tried to save a few bucks by buying licensed off brand controllers, but in the end the extra free dollars for the Pro Wireless Controller is by far money well spent.

    Only reason it gets 4 stars is the price. $69 for a controller is a bit insane, but it adds to the level of fun for the switch

    The controller feels good in your hands and it's pretty lightweight. The dpad is great too, nice and clicky and the gyro works good. The only problem I have with it is the buttons are big and mushy. Other than that it's great. It's a must with your Switch.

    Control is a little pricey but honestly like it better than the new "nunchucks" especially for games like splatoon, smash brothers and mario kart. Kids love it and it is more sturdy than those controls that come with the switch

    This official wireless Nintendo controller works as it should, no complaints here. It would be great if there were some more buttons, i dunno what they'd do, but who doesn't like buttons.

    Well built. A tad over priced compared to what the other big names offer for their consoles but a decent controller none-the-less.

    If you haven't bought this and you've owned your switch for more than a few days you're seriously missing out. It also charges on a USB-C so super easy to charge off the switch or any other charges MacBook Pro or Pixel chargers.

    This is a great controller for the switch. I can't use the joy-cons for long periods of times as they are too small for my hands.

    Original joycon is very easy to broken especially the left one. I buy this one after my second left joycon broken, also for splatoon. Zl zr is hard which make you finger hurts after few hours fps game play. Compare with ps4 and Xbox controller, probably only price is higher and rarely have discount. But most of third party controller either not wireless or no motion control. No choice

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I am used to XBOX and Playstation controllers. This is pretty good, but it would be better with a headphone Jack.
