    Better than JoyCons

    This makes the switch a lot more comfortable to play. I am not personally a fan of the joy cons since they are small and lead to hand cramps after a while. The pro controller eliminates this for me. Also keeps motion controls. Highly recommend investing in the Pro Controller instead of the cheaper wired controllers.

    Best Battery Life Hands Down

    Can't go wrong with the licensed Nintendo Switch controller. Out of all the other controllers it seems to always have the longest battery life. If you like the NFC features for games this is a must have controller too.

    Comfortable but expensive controller

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is hands down one of the most comfortable two-handed controllers I've ever held, second possibly only to the GameCube controller. However... I find no use for it. I find the joy-cons surprisingly comfortable (FAR more so than the Wii remotes), and I find myself preferring to use them separately in each hand than this forcing my hands together. Put that on top of how absurdly expensive it is, and it's just not really worth it. Great controller if you prefer a two-handed controller. But unnecessary for anything at this point in time.

    Ditch the Joy Cons

    This is a solid controller. Much better than the joy cons and works with a majority of the library. I love the translucent look and it feels great. Just wish it had more colors and would go on sale more often.

    Great controller, but expensive. Occastionally it drifts on Mario Kart, but that seems to be the only game that we have that problem on.

    If you play your switch docked the pro controller is worth every penny. Way more comfortable than the joy-cons, even with the grip. Buttons are also larger and softer to press. Compatible with motion controls. Only complaint is that it is a little heavier than expected, but you get used to it.

    Of course you buy this for smash. But is it worth the gwap for the other games? Yes, no questions asked hands down you should be using this controller for some comfort in your gaming. Also, joycons with adult hands are not comfortable! Do your hands the favor of avoiding carpal tunnel and get you one of these

    Great build quality, better feel than the joycons alone. Must buy if you're going to play beyond Mario kart, Mario party, and other simple control games.

    This controller is very comfortable and I love that it is rechargeable. I hate controllers that require AA batteries because they die so quickly! This one dies and you can just plug it in immediately.

    This is single-handedly the most expensive game pad I've ever purchased. It's not necessarily more comfortable, or made of expensive materials, or even better constructed than any before it. However, I feel it is an absolutely must have for Switch users. It's super easy to connect, works fantastic, and has crazy good battery life.

    Works great. One of the best ways to play the Switch. Personally, I find authentic Pro Controllers overpriced, but the flip side is you know it's from Nintendo.

    I use this to play FIFA and it works great, has a long battery life, and i haven't had connectivity issues. 4 stars only because it is quite expensive compared to other controllers.

    What a wonderful controller for playing your switch on a television. It works great for the older games as well as the new. Build quality is top notch as you would expect for any Nintendo product.
