    the superior play over the joycons. Immediately better play, enough so that I have bought another one. Just beat Cuphead with this, couldn't with the joycons.

    A must have for anyone who owns a Switch. Also the Switch branded controller is the way to go. The off brands are not very good so worth the price!

    I would say the pro controller is a MUST have for any switch owner, it just feels to great like it is the intended way to play docked.

    I use this to play Smash Bros. I know it's not the way to go for competitive Smash because of lag, but I don't notice it because I suck at Smash.

    Great product. I love the portability of the switch and the controllers were great when you're using them together but for two players it is so much easier on some of the games to have this one to use

    Xbox One style controller for Switch

    First non-nintendo like controller. This controller works like the typical top line sticks from Xbox or PS4 but for the switch. Some games are so much easier then detaching the sides off the switch to play.

    It’s a great controller but it should come with the unit. The charge lasts a very long time

    I'm not really a gamer but for the few games I do play I love this controller and the vibration. The vibration lets me know if I'm doing well or not.

    I have pretty big hands, and using the dinky controllers on the switch, even when connected together felt awkward. This was the next best solution. More ergonomic and a lot easier on my hand muscles.

    It works great. It still feels better to hold the full on controller rather than connecting the joy cons to the joy con grip controller.

    Way better than joy cons

    The pro is light years better than joy cons especially for games like super smash Bros. That being said after a few rigorous play sessions it feels like some of the buttons are worn out and misclick. Might be all in my head as I'm coming from ps4 but it feels like the co troller should be higher quality than what it is for the price you pay. Still the best controller I've found for switch though

    Great addition to the Nintendo Switch, we use it mainly for Mario Kart, kids and adults both prefer it over regular controllers.

    This is definitely needed while gaming on a TV. I have no issues with the joy con but this controller keeps to the standard layout which many are familiar with.

    I love the Switch, but couldn't stand using the Joycons when playing on the television. The button layout is just not comfortable to me. The Pro Controller solves that problem perfectly.
