Customer Ratings & Reviews

A MUST HAVE for ALL Switch users! Let's face it, the Switch Joy-Cons suck and are overpriced. THIS on the other hand is worth every penny. Feels nice and sturdy, the build quality is great. The buttons are nice and feel great to push, the joysticks also provide accurate input and are much better than the Joy-Cons. My only complaint is I wish I would've purchased this sooner.

I am a big fan of Nintendo's Pro Controllers and personally wouldn't consider purchasing a console without purchasing these as well. Using the Pro Controller makes playing games so much more enjoyable, especially for long gaming sessions. I prefer the Wii U Pro Controller to the Switch Pro Controller, but the controller is still good enough to justify the purchase. I think it is a bit overpriced, so I would recommend waiting to see if you can find a deal on them (maybe Black Friday).

Great controller Well worth for the switch The battery lasts for a long time

Can’t get much better of a controller for the Switch. Battery life is amazing and does everything you need it to.

easy to sync and long battery life. perfect for any type of game on the switch. feels comfortable in long play session.

I love this controller. Having said that, I'd recommend the protection plan for it because (1) it's pretty reasonable and (2) these controllers do tend to "drift" after a while. Nintendo will fix the problem, of course, but that involves shipping and waiting. With the protection plan, I can just walk in and trade for a new controller. The controller itself is everything you'd want it to be. I use mine all the time.

Feels great in hand. Maybe even better that the other 2 consoles.

Bought this as the joycon I have has stick drift. This is a nice controller and I haven't seen any issues left. I also replaced my joycon's stick so now this is just a good nice-to-have controller.

I was disappointed to see the price of the Pro Controller at launch. If you are on a tight budget or you play mostly in portable mode, you can skip it, as every game is playable without it (and a few games like Odyssey are arguably better without it). However, I would still recommend it to most Switch owners. It's the best and most comfortable way to play at home. It is wireless, has excellent battery life, and it can make good use of HD Rumble and motion controls when necessary.

Great wireless option for more comfortable playing and less or no drift.

For the Nintendo switch, joy cons are somewhat difficult to use if you're a more serious gamer. This pro controller feels more appropriate in that regards. At the time its one of the few controllers that can be recharged and used wirelessly. Most use batteries or have a physical cable that has to be connected to the console. Currently there is no comparison for the switch. Highly recommended.

I prefer using this and my TV over the gamepad. Long battery life, excellent weight, and responsive, accurate buttons.

The pro controller is pricey but a great controller. It is quite comfortable in hand. The battery life is actually consistent with their claims of 40 hours (I was so happy I played Zelda for hours for days and didn't have to charge it like the dual shock 4). The face buttons are good. The shoulder buttons and triggers fit well in hand. The sticks are fine by me. The plus/minus/home/select buttons are a bit close together but not annoyingly so. Oddly enough for Nintendo the directional pad is good but not as good as their past controllers. I have had instances where I pressing it on angle for up or down resulted in a right press. It hasn't happened enough to be a negative for me but it has happened. The rumble feels fine. One big plus for me is that Nintendo decided to use USB-C for their Switch and so happy they did. Connecting this to the dock to charge is way better than my dual shock 4. You don't need to worry about connecting the wrong way anymore. Overall a great controller.

This is the best controller for the Switch. It feels so comfortable and can be easily played in smash bros.

The size and quality of it is amazing. Highly recommended when playing more traditional games for a longer period of time.

Over the joycons using a good size and quality controller really makes a different in game play.

Nice size, grip is just perfect and in general it's confortable, much better than playing with the joy cons

Exactly what you think it would be. Feels better in the hands than the joycons. Battery life is good

This is a good product. I like the the way it feels and the battery life is good.

This is a great accessory for the Nintendo Switch and probably my most preferred controller to use when using the system in console mode. While a little pricey compared to other system controller, it works well and feels comfortable to hold. If you have a Nintendo Switch and are considering on getting one, I would definitely recommend or at least trying it out to see if you think it is a good fit. It also comes with a USB type C cable for charging while playing if the battery runs low.
