Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent product. A bit pricey though. Works perfectly no drift.

Definitely something everyone should invest in if you own a switch, comes in handy depending on thengame you play or if you’re playing with multiple people.

I prefer a controller to the joy con adapter/controller. The + & - buttons are easier to access on this controller, in my opinion, AND you use these buttons a lot it Breath of the Wild. That being said, I will point out that the controller is comfortable & has worked very well with my system and has held a charge for quite some time. Now, the negative: the button configuration is the exact opposite of the Xbox controller. Nintendo may have a reason for doing this, but it is extremely annoying for someone who plays both systems. You may want to consider this before purchasing because I play Zelda a lot & when I go back to my Xbox I find myself hitting the wrong button all the time. For this reason, I give the controller a mediocre rating...that & the expensive price tag.

Great for bigger hands it's a bit pricey but we'll worth it it's better than trying to use the joy cons all the time

This is a really comfortable controller and a must have for any switch owners who plan to play mostly in docked mode.

Good weight and quality. A must have for Switch owners, far superior to the joy cons.

Comfortable controller for switch games. Battery seems to last pretty long too.

The smaller controllers on the Switch are good but this type of controller is much better. Do yourself a favor and get one of these, the whole experience is much better. Battery life is long and the feel of it is certainly good.

When using detached joycons in the grip, I had to stand in front of the TV near the console or pull up a chair and keep the joycons within line of sight, otherwise connection issues would cause input dropouts. With the Pro Controller, I can sit back on the couch across the room, as comfortably as I like and have no issues whatsoever. I thought I might have to get a longer cable (the included cable is only 1 meter -- about 3.3 feet -- unlike what is mentioned as a "best answer" on a question here that incorrectly states 10 feet), as I am generally wary of wireless gaming controllers, but honestly I have not felt any lag or connection issues. Yes, it is much more expensive than the aftermarket controllers. However, those don't have motion control, which is essential for some games like Splatoon 2 (without motion control you only have coarse stick aiming; with motion control you have both coarse stick aiming and fine motion aim adjustment), and they don't have rumble, which can be essential for elements of other games, like Super Mario Odyssey which uses the rumble to let you know you're close to a hidden object. So, consider the games you play and whether these two features are important for you. Before I got this controller, I played the Switch almost exclusively in handheld mode because of the poor wireless connection quality of the joycons. With this controller, I play on the TV as much as possible. I'm obligated to point out that I am an employee of Best Buy. However, this has no bearing on the content of this review.

Long battery live and no drift issue like joycons. Feels great.

This controller works well, but is not cheap. Controllers should not cost more than games. But it works way better than using the numchucks. We had a similar controller start to move/drift. Hopefully this doesn't start doing that.

This controller is AMAZING to the hands and controls so well, feels light but built strong. A must have for Switch.

Best controller for switch feels comfortable and quality is good.

Great controller, comfortable to hold, good quality.

comfortable in hand good grip. Battery lasts hours before needing to be charged

Excellent Paddle with built in rechargeable battery. The battery life lasts much longer than the standard joy con controllers. Now with iOS ver 16 supporting Nintendo paddles its a better reason to pic this up, however not all the games support it, but Minecraft does work.

This is another great controller from Nintendo. I've been using it while docked on my switch to play Zelda. It just feels good and with the right heft. It works well with Zelda. I sometimes prefer this over the joy cons. Only drawback is the price. Should've been a little cheaper.

I love the pro controller, it's 1 of my favorites out of my consoles.

Pretty decent controller. Everything including the grip is perfect. The only thing it’s missing is the pressure sensitive triggers.

Controller is sized just right and feels more comfortable than the standard controls included with the system.
