Customer Ratings & Reviews

Joy-Cons are to be used in each hand while you are in a natural position, as opposed to the pro-controller. The pro-controller forces you to hold it in front of you. I replaced the original joy cons because of the lagging and the pro-controller was $10 cheaper. Sneaky devils Nintendo. Pick cute, expensive joy-con replacements or the pro-controller. Which is more expense to make, I wonder?

I love my new switch and while I do not mind playing with the joy con controllers, it does not lead to the best long-term gaming experience. Well you might be a little hesitant to pay 70 controller, it only 10 bucks more then other consoles controllers and I have to say I feel like this one is built the best. Insanely long battery performance and straight up comfortable.

Subtracted a star because of it's price ($70 when I bought it). It is $10 more than a Microsoft or Sony official controller for an Xbox or PS4. This should be $60, especially when you consider it doesn't even have analog triggers like the PS4 or Xbox controller. There are much more reasonably priced controllers, made by PowerA for example, that match this in build quality and function. I actually ended up returning this for the PowerA controller. That being said, it is comfortable and a high quality controller. It is especially more comfortable than the joycon grip that comes with your switch if you will be playing for longer periods of time and don't need the versatility/portability of using the joycon grip.

Love this item it’s sturdy durable and works great!

Excellent controller, love that it charges and comes with a charger- best one to use with this system! Good weight and nice handling for games, even with gyro controls. Battery life is good and still usable when charging (just pop it into a USB plug & outlet if the cord doesn’t reach from your system). I was also able to easily apply a vinyl skin to match my system.

Great grip for playing Switch games! I bought after tiresome hours of handheld Legends: Z-A

Bought an off brand controller at first but decided to get this one and try it out. I was significantly impressed. This one is heavier and just feels much better in your hands. Works amazing. If you can afford to get this controller, I would say get it above any off brand one. This is the best controller out for Switch.

Best controller ever! The battery runs for ever. Super comfortable

Wonderful feels nice on hand and it works well. Would recommend

[Employee of bestbuy] I love the weight of thus controller, great for smash, zelda, and even fortnite for my sister, havent gotten any stick drift and its been 3 momths compared to the joycons rhat get then in a week for me.

Got the pro controller to replace standard two part controllers that developed a joystick drift issue after three months. Pro Controller has good weight and quality. Controls are accurate and well laid out. Have not experienced any drift issues in 7 months of use. Battery life is excellent. I liked it so much I got a second pro controller for local multiplayer.

These are well built and holds comfortable in your hands for those long binge game sessions. Battery live holds up to whatever marathon gaming you pit it against. Controls placement are well thought out and easily accessible. My son loves this and prefers it over the normal joy cons. Haven't had any issues with buttons or the dreaded joy con drift on these bad boys.

Great controller overall, it definitely doesn’t stand up with the new PS5 Haptic controller but it’s incredibly comfortable and the sticks aren’t floaty. If you are looking for a controller for your switch, it’s worth the extra money over the cheaper options, substantially more durable and responsive.

This is an expensive controller, but one which totally delivers on the quality. While it doesn't look particularly interesting, it's easily the best feeling controller out there at the moment. It has a great 40 hour battery life, NFC compatibility, motion sensing capabilities, as well as Nintendo's new "HD rumble" feature, which is surprisingly nice. I will definitely be looking to buy another once I have a good multiplayer game.

The Pro Controller is a must have accessory for your Nintendo Switch. This controller is so comfortable and for me, increases my game play length. The controller feels really well made and has an ergonomic grip and feel. It charges using a USB-C to USB cable (included) that plugs into the back of your Switch dock. Nintendo says the battery last 40-hours of game play and I would say from my current usage, I think this is true.

Easily one of the best controllers out there. It feels fantastic and miles better than the joy con grip. The buttons are on the larger side, which isnt bad but feels a little strange at first. Some have reported the Dpad doing misinputs, but I was fortunate to not have that problem. That being said, Nintendo has helped me with several other switch related problems and I am sure youd be safe to pick on up thanks to their warranty

You need to get this IF you are planning on playing Breath of the Wild. So much better. I’m sure it plays really well with other games but it helps so much playing Breath of the Wild, especially if you have bigger hands. Only thing I hate is that it costs too much. $70 for a controller is a bit excessive. I wanted to take a star away from the rating but the product works perfect and the battery life is really long as well.

If you're worried about joycon drift, this is a very comfortable controller for playing at home. Personally don't like it very much for table top play, but alas. I don't like table top play in the first place. I will say, the face buttons (ABXY) feel a little more loose than the joycon equivalent and the D pad feels kind of weird. Other than that, it's a great durable controller.

The grip and weight feel fantastic. The buttons have a nice click to them The sticks have the perfect grip without feeling like they're gonna peel off at any time. The button placement is exactly what you'd want if you're used to a 360/XBONE controller but the heft feels much more well put together. Very much recommended.

This controller is so great! Feels great when holding it, I've always heard great things about this controller. Now I can see for myself what everyone has been talking about. Can't say enough good things about it.
