    I mostly play my switch on TV and was looking for a controller. Even though I tried couple of third party controllers they were not giving precise movements. Then I tried this and absolutely love it. Taking one star off because the first controller started producing heat on the left handle and had to get it replaced. Only negative point is its huge price.

    The Pro Controller in an absolute must have accessory if you enjoy traditional console gaming. The Joy-Cons just do not delivery the same type of functional and precise control for games like Zelda. Do yourself a favor and get the Pro controller today.

    For the price it’s a lot better than buying just one joy con since it’s comfortable and is basically your normal controller.

    For games like Super Smash Bros this controller is a must. Its ergonomic layout feels intuitive and comfortable. It definitely gives your gaming that next level edge over the regular Switch controllers.

    I like the overall shape of the controller and the sticks feel fine— but after a relatively short time, it feels like the buttons lost a lot of their resistance. It just doesn’t feel good to push them. For this price, the build quality should be much better. I recommend 8bitdo as an excellent (and more economical) alternative.

    Best controller for the Switch, period. The joycons are nice, but if you're getting this style controller to compliment your play, get this one, the others lack rumble and NFC for the amiibo.

    I love this Switch but the buttons feel too small in my hands. I'm accustomed to playing with the Wii U gamepad and a GameCube controller so buying this was a comfort thing. The controller is a better fit and easier to use. Great buy and no regrets!

    This solved a problem of the drift of the joycon controllers and it is better to play games with this.
