Customer Ratings & Reviews

If there was something good about the switch is this controller the switch itself for me is very uncomfortable wether it’s laying down sitting just don’t like it but this pro controller just felt amazing best purchase ever for the switch

This feels a lot like a PS4/XBOX controller. Battery life is very good -- I probably got 20 hrs on a charge. Makes game play a lot more natural. Way better than the tiny controller that comes with the Switch. It's a bit pricey, but it makes game play more fun for games like Zelda.

Love how it feels in my hands... fills them out better than the joycons but i wish if anything it was a bit bigger... im used to the xbox elite controller feel... wide and heavy. This is a little more slender and a little more light. Buttons feel great and the dpad's a little squishy but i suppose it does the job.

Great controller! The charger doesn’t work though. Luckily you can just plug the controller into any switch charger because they are the same chord but I will be returning this product for a different one that comes with a charger that works since a portion of the price covers a working charger. I wouldn’t let this stop you from buying this though, Best Buy has an amazing protection plan for situations just like this! The controller is still worth buying especially if you have a switch lite and want the experience of using a controller :)

The controller has worked like expected. I have not had any issues with the battery life, although I am not a serious gamer. I read reviews that the cheaper ones were not as sturdy. This controller is definitely sturdy, but is a little more pricey compared to others.

No longer being tied down while playing docked or getting carpel tunnel from using the side controllers is great! Connection is flawless with no discernible latency. Worth the investment just to save ypur qrists from the doctor and their bills!

Seriously. I've played a ton of video games in my life on a almost every platform. This might be my favorite controller ever. It feels so good in your hand, and all the buttons are feel magnificent. Battery life is great. I have no complaints. If you play Switch in docked mode, you should own one of these.

I love the pro controller. What I don't like is the stick drift. It happens now and then

The best Nintendo switch controllers ever made! I wouldn't change them for any other!!!

I’ve been using the joy cons for over a year and felt a little unsatisfied. I finally pulled the trigger and got the pro controller. Talk about an upgrade. Gaming on the switch feels so much better now. The pro is very comfortable and on the same level as the Xbox and PlayStation controllers.

I was very hesitant to purchase the controller with how high the price is. However, my doubts were put down when I purchased the controller and I do not regret the purchase. The controller feels great and with HD rumble, it feels awesome! Easily a great controller and highly recommend picking up if you have a Nintendo Switch!

Beside my thumb sometimes slips when playing MARIO cart on the joy stick because of my sweaty fingers. This controller size is perfect. Like the Xbox the location of the buttons is identical but it is slightly smaller making it a better fit for me. The controller also connects to the pc and it uses usb c!

As a lifetime gamer I’ve used all of the old gen and newer generation controllers on all consoles/systems and in my opinion the switch pro controller is the best one to date on any system. Very solid build, comfortable to use and for the price is absolutely worth it. You won’t regret this purchase.

If your an adult gamer as myself I would recommend switching over to this if you also dislike motion controls and the tiny/squished feel of a controller in your hand like the Joy-Cons. The feel in your grip on the Pro controller feels nice and the quality is fantastic. Highly recommend one of these if you're considering.

I can believe i went years with out this controller. I love the switch but hate the small two handed controls and I’m not a huge fan of the original that comes with the system. This one is heavy duty. Plugs into the back. Easy to switch between systems.

Got this Switch pro controller to be able to play games with my son on his Christmas present. Works great and fits an adults hands well. My son prefers the smaller tri-part controller that comes with the game because it fits his hands better. Both have motion sense and all the necesary buttons to handle any game.

Great feel, and comfortable grip. Good battery life.

Great Controller, smooth joysticks and feels sturdy.

Awesome Controller got this for my son and he's pretty rough on controllers. I would highly recommend this controller.

​The 8BitDo Ultimate Controller is a feature-rich, third-party gamepad that stands out as a compelling alternative to the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, especially for gamers seeking versatility across multiple platforms.
