    This remote is decent. The D-pad stinks, and the joysticks can be overly sensitive, but its an otherwise great way to play!

    Easy setup. Works great, compatible with existing docking station. Remote allows safer distance from screen and gamer as compared to gaming with only Nintendo Switch device. Satisfied parent.

    As we are beginners to this gaming systems this has been a good all around controller for the price. As we get better with the games and our knowledge grows we may invest in a higher performance controller.

    This controller is a must for anyone who is used to playing video games on traditional consoles. They are much easier to use than the Joy-Con controllers that come with Nintendo Switch. Highly recommended.

    This is a great control to start out with the switch. It has usb-c which allows to charge the controller and you don’t need external batteries. Great handling while playing. Definitely recommend it.

    Control is way better than the joy cons or anything around as long as its this official nintendo controller . For some reason, maybe i was being too rough with it, but the joy stick started slowly moving right after my old control had started slowling moving left . Id say to just be careful with how you play but its a good controller, just a bit expensive but its worth it for competitive players.

    Bought a cheap controller to play on the switch but didn't work. Couldn't connect it even with the usb so brought this and haven't had any problems, been amazing.

    For those that have experienced strafing issues on the original remotes that come with the switch must upgrade to a pro controller. This helped immensely!

    This makes up for the awkwardness of the joy-cons when playing more competitive games, or playing more competitively. Love that it foregoes wireless connectivity when connected (ala the xboxone controllers). If you can swing it, get it.

    Love the way this feels in my hands. Just can't give it five stars as it doesn't turn on the system like a PS4 controller can.

    My one complaint is that the profile of the controller is relatively flat leaving no room on the back of it for your fingers.
