Customer Ratings & Reviews

This controller is much more comfortable to use than the one included with the Switch, but the price is really high compared to a PS4 or XBox controller considering it doesn't really seem to do anything unique.

People will complain about the price, but when compared to a PS4 DS4 controller, it's not that much more expensive. Plus you can get a custom made Xbox One controller for more than this. Overall the build quality is good, it has no NFC and HD Rumble support, and you can charge it using an iPhone USB adapter or simply plugging the included USB-C cable into the Switch Dock.

Great controller for long periods of gaming. Feels great in larger hands.

After using my Hori Split Pad pros as replacement for my faulty jocons, I kinda missed the gyros and the rumble. This controller has truly been able to make me enjoy those features once again. Setting it up was easy and connecting it to the switch was a seamless experience. The battery life was superb.

It’s very nice not to have to use use the little tiny switch controllers. The battery in this last way longer than the smaller controllers. This controller is more responsive and easier to use than the standard switch controllers. I won’t my even use the standard switch controllers anymore.

I've gotten use to using my Joy-Cons for a while, but once I started playing with this, I don't think i'll be playing with the Joy-Cons for a while (until I need to that is). This controller feels comfortable on the hands and the buttons are just the right size. I strongly recommend getting this controller.

I honestly like playing with this a lot better then the joy cons. Don't get me wrong the joy cons are a fun gimmick and a fun way to add extra players but this is easily the "player 1" controller that the younger siblings never got to play. I would recommend this for any switch player.

Don't get me wrong I love my switch but this controller is way better then any controller Nintendo has had in years. Finally something that on par with a Playstation controller. This is pricey but once you hold it in your hands and feel how well it fits your not going to be able to go back unless you take your Switch on the go.

Great quality, the best experience for your Nintendo Switch.

I'm not the biggest fan of the joycons so when I heard about the pro controller it was a must have for me. This controller feels great. Very Study and responsive and supports rumble. Haven't used any other controller since I've purchased this. Highly recommend. Only con is the price but everything Nintendo is expensive.

Better feel and amazing battery life. Perfect for smashing!

These controllers are just necessary if you plan to play this dock mode. Wish they were cheaper but they are excellent quality nothing else touches it.

Great weight and grip. I am Smash Bros fan and it is a must.

This controller just feels perfect in the hands. The sticks have an extended range compared to the joy con. The buttons and triggers have that perfect “squish” too. Another benefit is the battery life- it lasts a long time before recharge. Completely satisfied, wish I would have gotten one a long time ago for those long Zelda sessions.

The best thing about Nintendo's Pro Controller for the Switch is its battery life. I rarely play more than one hour at a time, so I hardly ever need to charge this controller. It is comfortable to hold and the buttons are larger than on the Joy-cons. Its home button wakes up the console in its dock. Response on the TV screen is very tight. No problems to report at all.

call me old fashion but I enjoy these legacy controller tpes vs. the two wireless controllers that come with the switch. Battery last long and if you are running low, you can simply use the USB cable and plug in for a charge on a nearby outlet. I typically use my wire adapter. the one thing missing from this controller is an audio jack.

Aside from being somewhat pricey, this is a fantastic controller.

It's expensive, especially since it's not *needed* when the joy cons can be used with the include grip, but the pro controller feels great in the hand and its battery life is excellent. It's also very convenient to be able to dock and undock the switch while the joy cons are still attached, and just use the controller once it's docked.

I prefer these over the standard controllers for switch. They are good sized for adult hands or older kids hands.

Awesome upgrade over the supplied joy con controllers. Wish I would have gotten this when playing BOTW, love the battery life, fast charging, and the controls are smooth and easier on the hands. Took a few hours to get used to it coming from only using the supplied joy cons.
