    Must have controller

    After experiencing some issues with the joy con, I decided to purchase the pro controller and was very happy. It has a comfortable grip that lets you play for hours comfortably. Just make sure to test the left analog stick because sometimes the calibration may not be perfect. Also, the d pad may be an issue to some people because it's not the best design, but that's not a problem for me. It's a pricey controller, but well worth the stress over the odd joy con design.

    We have tried aftermarket controllers and some of them work alright, however this is the only full featured controller in this price range. It is original Nintendo and works flawlessly with the Switch.

    If you're going to be playing a game on switch for more than about an hour, you're gonna want one of these. It's more comfortable and sturdier than the joycons. The only drawback is the price, but wait for a sale and get one.

    I find this controller the most comfortable way that I normally play. The controller stays charged for a long time (though I have no experience with other consoles, so I don’t know how it compares to their controllers).

    The joy cons don’t deliver the same level of control and durability as this controller provides. Have played with it for over 500 hours and it still works as it should.

    After going through knock-off controllers from third party manufacturers and consistently being disappointed with performance, decided to spring for a pair of these. They work great and are clearly built well.

    The Winning Alternative to Joycons w/ Grip

    Is it worth paying the premium price over similar 3rd party versions? Absolutely. It feels hefty in your hands and has a truly superb battery life. Everything functions as it should (mine drifted out of the box but after a quick google search and learning I should try calibrating first it completely solved the problem and 8 months later it has never come back). This is my second pro controller (first one is still as great as when I bought it). Does everything the joycons do like rumble and amiibo support but battery life is better and I don’t worry about messing up the controller with heavy use like I do with the tiny joycons.

    With a battery life of 40 hours before another charge another and a speedy USB Type C cable this controller is great. I'd even say it's better than the Xbox one controller and PS4 controller. A definite must have for the Switch

    I personally don't like the feel of the joy-con controllers so this works wonders for me, and I use it for all the switch games I play. The location of the Right Joy-con's stick just feels very awkward, especially when they are detached. Pros Has a very good feel in the hands, sound ergonomic design. Everything I can ask for in a controller, does the job 100% Con A little pricey at $70, but its worth it if the 3rd party controllers don't suit your fancy.

    First time buying a pro controller. Not disappointed. Have used it several times with games ranging from Mario Kart to Ys 8. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to using joy cons.

    In my opinion the best option for a switch controller! Often on sale for around 10 bucks more than other alternative, but butter. Has rumble, nfc, and feels great!

    The Switch Pro controller is an excellent controller. It's a little pricey, but it's well worth it. It's works great and feels solid in your hands. It's a much better experience than using the two joycons combined as one controller.

    This controller feels great in the hand, has nice big buttons, keeps a charge for a very long time, no signal issues and is great for long play periods. The price tag is higher than most wireless game pads, but it is worth the price.
