Customer Ratings & Reviews

We got exactly what we expected with the purchase. We ordered it in-store and price-matched to Amazon's current listing. The controller is amazing. It's stylish and very comfy in the hand. The built-in Amiibo reader is a total bonus. The wireless capability is awesome too.

I played my switch with the JoyCons for the whole time while I owned it. But once I finally got a pro controller it was like night and day with comfort. I'm looking forward to trying it with SSBU but I still don't think it will beat out the fantastic GC controller. But who knows!

This is a great controller. It is more comfortable the PS4 controller for me. My thumb is positioned in a comfortable place to press the buttons on this controller. It's kind of expensive though. I also liked it much more than using the joy cons and I think I might travel with this controller.

First off the control may seem pricey but let's face facts. The battery life is way longer than a DS4 (the PS4 controller) with way more tech inside to boot. It feels great in your hands and makes it so much more convenient to use you're switch in docked mood. Would buy another for MARIO kart.

I've gamed for a pretty long time, and certainly played every Nintendo system from NES to the Switch. I've played on Xbox, I've played on Playstation. As soon as this controller was in my hand I instantly smiled. It's a perfect fit for me, so very comfortable, and has a great quality feel to it.

So glad I got the more expensive one!!!! We had a knock off and it didnt last in this household.... but the OG one is still rocking!!!!

Honestly the most durable wireless controller, and I’ve bought a lot of Switch controllers before because I’m an esports coach.

Super comfortable with no stick drift compared to the joycons!

Having a real controller is a must! This controller is pricey but worth it! I hate playing with the joy sticks the switch comes with. Battery holds well, for days without needing a charge and it's just awesome, just buy it.

Everything about this feels much more comfortable than the joycon. I love that it’s wireless as well. The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is that it doesn’t seem to be built for precision. For example, I play a lot of Tetris 99, and it seems like I get more misdrops when I play with this control pad over the joycons.

i wish i had bought one of these sooner! this controller is great, battery is awesome. very comfortable to use!

Its the best pro/non pro controller. The gyro is the best. The comfort is at the top, but im confused how they charge $70 and call it a “pro” nothing about this controller says pro. Its laughable. Its the controller that should of came standard in box. It is really good and your options when it comes to decent quality are low. I always go for the 8bitdo ultimate, or this. The only 2 out of the grip of controllers ive tried worth having.

This controller is great - I like it more than the PS4 or the XBox controllers! With a good balanced weight to it, extraordinary battery life, and all the Rumble and NFC features the console itself has, this is a must have for anyone planning on keeping the Switch around as a main console.

This controller is really high quality and has great battery life. It was a bit more expensive than some of the Switch Controllers I saw at the store however.

We had some issues with the original joy-cons. Decided to upgrade. Having used PS3, PS4 and XBox controllers this feels the same. Its robust and well weighted. It has good button feel and reasonable wireless. So a good all round controller

This really is an excellent controller. It makes playing the Switch a significantly better experience. Definitely the best controller Nintendo has done, and has a great battery life. Don't even know when it was last charged.

Definitely better than playing with joycons! This controller adds more grip but also relieves stress from your hands while playing for long hours. Definitely a must have for anyone one playing switch on the tv while docked!

The perfect controller. Best Buy is always my go to for gaming equipment and the never disappoint. They shipped this to me in 2 days and I have had 0 issues in the 2 months I've owned it.

I already have the joy con and this but I needed a third controller. I prefer this controller over the joy con honestly. It’s lightweight and comfortable to hold. I prefer wireless controllers that don’t need the batteries changed out too.

Great wireless controller. I use it for super smash to preserve my joy cons from wear and tear. It is very comfortable and battery life is good. The price is steep for a controller like all nintendo branded accessories. The controller feels good in hand. It has a rechargeable internal battery. The feel is similar to a xbox controller. I just hope the joysticks hold up as it is a known problem that nintendo joysticks are brittle and tend drift over time.
