Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is hands down the best controller for the switch. It may seems a bit pricey, but it is worth it. I waited to find it on sale. I love it! Highly recommend!!

Great controller. This thing absolutely destroys using the joycons with that cheap plastic mold looking controller you get from the console packaging. Wish it was priced at $45-$50 though. It’s for a Nintendo Switch which is $300 console offering lower graphics & performance. No reason is should be so high in price. Get it open box and you’ll be just fine. Saves you $10. Get this for playing while docked. It makes Skyrim really enjoyable!

Feels really good in my hands. Long battery life. Very smooth and light weight, but not too light to make it feel cheap

For Zelda, this is necessary. The Joycons have nothing on this controller, I haven't touched the grip since I got the Switch pro controller at launch. The Switch Pro controller feels better in your hands than both the Xbox One and PS4s controllers. Gyro is incredibly responsive and the battery life is incredible compared to the competition. This is also the only console controller to have a USB C connection, which feels much more sturdy than the standard micro USB. 10/10 would buy again. My only complaint is the glossy plastic at the top because it scratches easily. It's very durable though, I've dropped it multiple times.

Long battery life, responsive, comfortable to hold for hours, and no drift.

This controller is one of the best I have ever had from Nintendo. It's seriously a must for anyone who plays regularly, it fits the hands so much better and you won't get cramps from it like the basic unit that comes with the consoles where the Joycons slide into. It's a little expensive especially compared to how much Microsoft Xbox controllers or Sony Playstation controllers are.

This controller is absolutely amazing! It charges over the included USB-C cable that can be connected to one of the two front facing USB ports on the switch dock or any other USB that powers the device according to the specifications. I haven't quite experienced the claimed "40 hour lifespan" that is advertised on the box but it is well over 30+ hours. If you prefer a traditional gamepad as opposed to the joycons I couldn't recommend this enough. It supports amiibo and features motion controls that can still be used in a range of games. Wonderful product!

This controller is much more comfortable than the standard Switch joy cons. The wireless connectivity and battery life have been great. Only wish it was less expensive.

The original is simply the best! I cannot overstate the quality of the Nintendo produced Pro Controller. There are a lot of Nintendo "certified" 3rd party controllers out there, but the simply don't meet the build quality of the "OFFICIAL" pro controller. The battery life on this controller is between 35-40 hrs depending on the game's use of rumble motors. This controller still outlasts the OEM controllers of the XB and PS by a mile.

I have large hands and this controller was a must. The joy cons are not bad but this is probably the best controller I've ever owned. Great battery life and overall feel.

The joy cons are great but this controller is you are still able to use motion controls which is nice. Its very comfortable and has a long battery life. If you are a casual gamer stick with joy cons. If you gamer who plays a lot this controller is worth the peice.

I was skeptic at first due to the high price for just this controller but I was delightfully surprised after using it. The grip of it feels amazing, despite the joycons already fitting my small hands the Pro Controller feels way better as it does give a more traditional gaming feel. The addition of the motion controls and the NFC reader may also probably explain the high price which makes this controller a hardware powerhouse. The addition of a traditional D-Pad is also a positive since the fighting games on the virtual console definitely benefits from it. I highly recommend anyone to grab this for their Switch

You can use this controller plugged in or unplugged! Great choice instead of constantly having to buy batteries! My son uses it daily for hours before he charges it again.

Controllers work so well. Home button just turns on the Switch from sleep mode so quickly. Buttons are responsive and have no issues. Grip is perfect and so much better than the joy-con controller that comes with the Switch. Excellent response time, no input lag whatsoever. Doesn't take that long to charge, and battery life is exceptional. Reminds me of the Xbox one controller. If you have a Switch, you have to get this controller, especially if you play competitive multiplayer online.

Love this controller i highly recommend. The switch itself gives my hand cramps and playing with joy cons ahh no... i mean unless i have to. Plus controller is comfortable wireless has where you can scan amiibos on it as well also the battery life is crazy good! Only complaint is it turns on if u hit any button which if u put into a bag etc is a pain. Only way to avoid is put switch into airplane mode i think someone said..

Very comfortable controllers. Fit very well in your hands, not to heavy, and hold a long charge. Highly recommend.

This controller is streets ahead of the joycon controllers when they are in the controller grip. The pro controller is more comfortable than it looks and has a good weight to it. Not quite as comfortable as an xbox elite controller, but more comfortable than ps4 controllers. It is a must for long gaming sessions with the switch docked to a tv.

The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is so great! If you want to be more pro at multiplayer games, or just feel comfortable playing any game, get this controller. Control sticks are bigger and allow more control of movement. Buttons are bigger and more mushy. D-Pad is pretty useful compared to the separate buttons on the Joy-Cons. Trigger buttons are mushy and comfortable to press. The grip is so ergonomic in my hands. Charging takes only a couple hours with an easy USB Type-C Cable. Finally, the controller lasts 40 hours. Don't wait if it's on sale for $50-$60!

Works perfectly. Bought this to replace the one I accidentally stepped on. Works exactly how it should

There is almost nothing this controller can't do. First of all, its battery life is amaaazing. I can play games with this thing for a full day without ever having to worry about charging it. It has a USB-C port, so it's easy to find a lot of wires to charge this thing with. Also, the controller itself feel so comfortable to play with for long play sessions. The analog sticks and all the buttons feel just right when you start playing with them. This thing can pretty much do anything Joy-Cons can do (in terms of functionality) but better.
