Customer Ratings & Reviews

The switch controllers are good but this is a gamers controller and well made with good battery life

Easy to use. Knobs work perfectly. And also stays charged for a long time

This might be the best gaming controller available for any system. A must purchase for the switch.

A quick disclaimer before I make my comments: I am not a professional gamer, nor will I ever be one. I have played console games for the last 20 years, though, and I have some opinions on how a controller ought to work. My primary controllers have been Xbox controllers - original Xbox, 360, and One. I have had a PS2 in the past as well. I far prefer the Xbox controller layout over the DualShock layout, so I was happy to see that this Nintendo controller is similar. The build of the controller itself is decent. It feels solid in the hand, although doesn't have the same ergonomic comfort that either Xbox or DualShock offers. Pretty much all controllers have the same set of buttons these days, so again, the Nintendo controller fares well. What is a bit of a bummer is that the sticks feel a little long, but - oddly - they also don't feel very sensitive, so setting up a game takes some trial and error. I haven't had a game that didn't require some twiddling. The Xbox sticks are tighter, which I prefer. In fact, that was a gripe I had about the DualShock sticks - they are looser than I like. However, DualShock sticks seem more sensitive, so the Nintendo sticks are a bit hard to get used to. I either seem to swing around in a way that makes me dizzy or lope around in a way that gets me hit in the back. Neither is a great feeling, which is why some twiddling is required. The buttons are adequate. They have slightly sharp edges, so they are easy to find, although I think if I played a major button-masher, I might get annoyed with them after a while. All of the buttons feel as if they'd last a while, however. Also solid, like the whole controller. I bought this controller because I tried to play Skyrim with the standard controllers in the holder that came with the Switch. That was a pretty awful setup - the sticks there are really small, but still not very sensitive, and I had a difficult time feeling competent. With the Pro Controller, Skyrim is far more enjoyable, and I've mostly gotten used to the sticks. At times, I still think the sensitivity is a little weird, like when playing Zelda. But as an upgrade over the tiny controllers, I can certainly recommend the Pro Controller. Overall, I'm happy that I have this controller. It is better than the dual controllers (for games that support it), and it feels solid. With some tweaking, the controller works well enough, although I would certainly wish that I didn't have to tweak at all.

Excellent, I paid for what I really want. Good service.

My son asked for the larger controller for this system as well as the smaller ones that came with the system.

One of the best controllers out on the market today.

my hands were too big for the joycons, so this fit the bill, works great on MK, no issues! Long battery life!

I purchased one of these and find it to be a better option than the joycons for games like Zelda. Has a nice feel.

very happy with this product. I highly recommend it

Excellent controller. Very long battery life. Never once caused me a problem.

Good controller for bigger hands. Better grip and less chance of cramping.

Better controller for classic use. Battery life is good and buttons are much larger. Good range.

It’s a good sturdy controller. Hopefully I won’t have to replace it anytime soon.

So much nicer than using the joycons in the grip. Long battery is nice too

Perfect controller for Nintendo! My son loved it for his Nintendo Switch !

This controller is excellent for the more FPS and arcade titles out there. Only gripe I would have is the motion controls in games like Breath of the Wild, but even then it isn't unplayable. The motion controls work amazing but you can tell when a game is asking for Joy Cons. Overall I have nothing really bad to say about this product, I love it and highly recommend it!

Well worth the money, haven’t found another controller that compares to it

The Pro Controller is great controller! Haven’t had any problems with the controller!

In my opinion, this item is a must-have for any switch owner (if they play it at all as a console).
