    Overpriced, but comfortable grip/great battery

    At $70, it feels overpriced, but it's a very comfortable grip to play with, definitely better than the joycons on the charging grip. The battery also lasts quite a while, I can game for hours without needing to charge it and when I do it charges fairly quickly. I will note that the joycons on the charging grip that comes with the switch itself isn't a bad controller, so if you feel hesitant to plop down $70, try it out first and then consider this if you want a better feeling controller. If you play in short bursts of time, you may not even notice a major difference.

    This controller is absolutely INCREDIBLE! So comfortable and so awesome, the only slight downside is it does not have a headphone jack, but it pairs to PC or other items you want it to, and it is AMAZING, HD rumble is fantastic, overall it's an amazing piece of technology from NINTENDO

    I waited until the Pro controller went on sale but I should have bought one the day o bought my Switch! The controller is high quality and very comfortable. The Joy con controllers are excellent but the Pro controller really elevates the Switch experience!

    Works great! One of the few controllers with HD rumble. I like how it feels in the hand better than the standard joy-cons. Very sturdy as I have dropped it several times with no damage. Also holds a charge forever.

    Best controller for the switch. I’ve been using joy cons for a couple years and finally opted for a Pro. Battery life is amazing. No drift issues at all. Very comfortable and ergonomic for my big hands.

    This controller is so much nicer than using the joy cons. It's expensive, probably too expensive, but this is Nintendo we're talking about and I must admit it's a fantastic controller.

    Needed another controller so that my family could game on the switch together. Worked out well, battery life on this thing is amazing. A lot better than buying more of the tiny controllers that come with it without the controller handler and a lot less expensive.

    A great control, much more comfortable to play than using the Switch Joy cons. And the battery is great last mr all week without having to charge.the Price is just a little too high, but besides that it’s a great product.

    Works as expected. Better than the joy cons for sure. I did get a little grinding feeling on the right stick. Either I have gotten used to it, or it's is not doing it anymore. But all in all, it is a decent controller. I think it is a bit overpriced. But still a huge step up over the junky joy cons.

    Super comfortable and responsive. It is my controller of choice. Long battery life also. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes the feel of traditional controllers. I personally find this better than single joycons (too small) or dual joycons in a grip (just not quite perfect).

    Best accessory for your NS hands down. The controller has everything the joy cons have with an exceptional grip. The only turn down is the price, but I decided not to take away one star for that, ITS THAT GOOD! For people other than small children, this is the best way to play.

    The pro controller is more comfortable, while it doesn't allow multiplayer like the joycons, this is designed to fit naturally on your hand, it feels organic, your hand just fits where the stick and buttons are, very good battery, lasted 30 hours of gaming before showing low battery

    Pro Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch

    It was hard deciding between the Nintendo-brand or other brands of Switch controllers. Ultimately I decided on Nintendo because it has the vibration feedback during gameplay and it's rechargeable. I did not like the lack of color options (I'm spoiled from the vast array of colors for PS4 controllers.) Or the high price tag of such a boring-looking controller. But it meets my needs and feels high quality for my extended video gaming sessions compared to using my joy-cons.

    I play a lot of games that require an actual controller, and this one works like a charm, no muss, no fuss, just charge up and go, or leave it wired and save the battery, all the same, good choice, works amazing!

    The price tag was STEEP, but with the 2 joy cons I needed one more controller to play with my 2 kids so grabbed it. I gotta say I'm impressed with what they've done with this controller. Vibrations are subtle, feels great in the hands and battery life is looooooooooooooooooong.
