    This control is very good because if you want to use something similar to an Xbox or PlayStation, it has A similar feel to it and it is a better controllers then the joy cons in my opinion.

    I love this controller. Comfortable and easy to use. The con is that there is no headphone jack. No Clue why. The Wii U controller had one. The rumble is great also. It is a tad expensive but worth it.

    This controller is a game changer. The joy-cons are cool, but this feels more like a real controller. Plays very similar to the Wii U pro controller. It's a little expensive, but definitely worth it.

    I liked the joy-con controllers that came with the Nintendo Switch but they weren’t ideal. I wanted something bigger and the pro controller fits my hands perfectly. I use it for every game.

    Too expensive, but considering the other option is Joy-Cons this controller is kinda necessary. I got an off brand for the last one and it lasted me a year and a half, here’s hoping this one lasts longer.

    This might be my favorite controller of all time...even more than the dualshock 4. Feels great in your hand, extremely responsive. A little on the expensive side but a must have for switch owners.

    The best controller made by Nintendo

    IMO, I wouldn't use a switch without this. It's the most comfortable Nintendo gaming experience in my lifetime. Tied with Virtual Boy controller but because of its 40hr battery life, it's slightly wins.

    I can play the Switch without this controller but after a few hours the right (offset) thumb stick starts to bother my right thumb. I picked this up on launch day and I believe this is by far the best way to play the Switch while docked. I don't think its any better than the Xbox One or PS4 controller so I'm not sure why Nintendo felt the need to price it $10 higher but if you can afford it, get it you won't regret it.

    Great Controller, Home Button a Little Awkward

    Better option to replacing JoyCons or cheaper off-brand controllers. My JoyCons had started giving me issues so while they were being repaired I had purchased a cheap (Approx $25) controller to hold me over, which was great until it broke less than six months later. When the other JoyCon began malfunctioning, I opted to invest in this controller. So far it has worked very well! I played one day for about 18 hours straight and the controller still responded well and had plenty of battery life. My only complaint is the placement of the Home and Snapshot buttons, which are a bit awkwardly placed for people with small hands.

    Some might complain about this controller being expensive but I think it's worth the money to buy one if you like a bigger controller in your hands. Also it's easy to scan amiibo into games like Zelda.

    This controller has the best battery life of any used it for almost a week before needing to charge. And is extremely comfortable. Can use amiibos easily. It may seem a little pricey but it's worth it.

    Most of the time I spend playing games on my Xbox using an Elite controller, but when playing on the Switch this controller just feels better than putting two Joy-Cons in the handset that comes standard this the console. Even if I’m playing Super Mario Bros U Deluxe, I prefer the Pro over the Joy Cons because since it’s a normal size for a controller (Joy-Cons are smaller overall, less grip, smaller buttons). I also feel like I smash buttons when I play and feel like the Joy Con was going to eventually fail but the Pro I don’t feel that way. Great buy for anyone who uses controllers on other consoles.

    The Switch's pro controller feels much better in the hand than the Wii U pro controller does. The weight is just right and the texture on the body of the controller makes it easier to maintain a grip.

    I highly recommend a purchase of the Pro Controller, even with the high price tag. This makes it so much easier to play the Switch than the Joy Cons together. Very durable and functions fantastically.
