    This controller is expensive, but you can feel the quality! The weight is great, feels great in the hands, and blows the standard joy-cons out the water. I really didn't wanna pay the high price, but I'm super happy with my purchase.

    I know the JoyCons were a big part of Nintendo's Switch sales campaign, and they are fine for most games, but for those intense high action games you really need a more responsive controller. With that said, Nintendo’s Pro Controller not only fills that need but it is one of my favorite controllers I have used on multiple platforms. Also, the battery life is unmatched. Literal days with constant use versus 6 hours for most I have used. Can’t recommend this controller enough.

    I bought a cheap knock off controller from Amazon, big mistake! Went to Best Buy for a Pro Controller. I can feel the difference in quality right away. The controller feels solid in my hand with good response time and a charge that last.

    A vast improvement for most Switch games. The size of this controller is similar to a PlayStation or Xbox controller and is far more comfortable than the Switch Joy-Con controllers, especially for adults or teenagers with larger hands.

    I really thought this thing was overpriced. I avoided getting one ever since the switch came out. First I bought a 3rd party controller, and I ended up letting my brother or friends use it when we played - it felt cheap. Then I got a JoyCon "comfort grip." It didn't fit the bill either. Fast forward a year and I picked this guy up. You can tell from the heft of it that it's quality. I twisted the controller by the grips. No squeaking! Alternated pulling the triggers with varying levels of speed and force. No cheap spring sounds! NFC worked perfectly first try, and most importantly... HD RUMBLE! Battery life has worked out to be 30+ hours, as claimed, plus you can charge it via USB C even while you're gaming. I shouldn't have waited this long, guys.

    I absolutely love this controller - I use it to play Breath of the Wild and it's so much more comfortable for longer playtime sessions. Can't recommend it enough. It might be on the steeper side of pricing, but the battery lasts for forever and my hands feel great every minute of gameplay.

    Good controller. Felt a little odd going from a Power-A to this. Seems a little more sleek. Anything to not have to use joycons when playing docked. Find what fits your needs. In my opinion Nintendo likes to put a little extra margin on their products, charge more than what I think they’re really worth.

    Needed a better grip and layout for Borderlands 2 and Monster Hunter Rise. Has a great feel and any PS4 or Xbox fans will fit right in. 1 month of hard use and no drift...yet. Battery life blows PS4 and Xbox out of the water.

    This controller feels really nice, and has far better connectivity than the joycon. The battery life is also really good. Only complaint is really the price tag.

    My child loves his new controllers. The grip is nice and so is the weight. They also keep a pretty good charge.

    I love using the pro controller for my switch. It fits nicely in hands and the buttons are easy to press and control. The life of the controller is pretty good as well. I can play for a few days to a week depending on play without charging.

    I bought two of these controllers. They're are great to play with and are durable. I've dropped these controllers multiple times and it's still functional. It holds a long charge and works great across the living room. Great purchase!

    Love the controller. Far more comfortable than joy-cons and doesn't suffer from the connection issues of the left joy-con. Looks great feels great. Battery seems to last forever. Charged the night I got it on March 3rd, and put about 15 hours into zelda since and the on screen meter is full still.

    This is a great wireless controller for the Nintendo Switch. We purchased it because it was Nintendo brand. We haven’t ran across a game yet that it doesn’t work on. It stays charged for a very long time. Glad we purchased it!!!!

    We got exactly what we expected with the purchase. We ordered it in-store and price-matched to Amazon's current listing. The controller is amazing. It's stylish and very comfy in the hand. The built-in Amiibo reader is a total bonus. The wireless capability is awesome too.

    I played my switch with the JoyCons for the whole time while I owned it. But once I finally got a pro controller it was like night and day with comfort. I'm looking forward to trying it with SSBU but I still don't think it will beat out the fantastic GC controller. But who knows!
