- Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2025This is a great item to have especially if you are used to an Xbox shaped controller. I love to use this when I am playing the switch through the television. I would recommend everyone to have at least one of these. Especially if your trying to beat your kids. On games that is HAHA

- Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2025I wanted a controller that was easy to hold with my tiny woman hands, and this takes the cake. It almost feels like an old Playstation controller, which was my jam back in the day! When it's dying, it gets a little laggy, but barely. Charging doesn't take long at all. Definitely worth buying name brand versus off-brand.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2025Good solid controller for the Nintendo switch. I also like the understated plain semi transparent finish of it compared to the other versions that have clashing colors.

JaimeReviewed in Mexico on March 31, 20255.0 out of 5 stars Calidad de mando
Me gustó mucho, tenía tiempo jugando con los joycon de la consolas y con mandos genéricos
Lo estoy probado desde que me llego, y la. Verdad la precisión de los joystick son buenos, desconozco que marca usan para los joycons pero se sienten bien. Y la zona muerta del joystick es buena.
Giroscopio es buena, preciso
NFC, lastimosamente no tengo amiibo para probar si me llego en excelente estado, pero me imagino que si.
Botones, excelente
Como es enviado por Amazon y desde la página oficial de Nintendo, obviamente es original.

RobertoReviewed in Italy on December 30, 20185.0 out of 5 stars Controller PRO originale Nintendo: costa caro me è veramente ECCELLENTE, ha anche il sensore NFC
Portato da Babbo Natale alla mia bimba per giocare a Splatoon2 su Nintendo Switch. E' un controller PRO originale marchiato Nintendo, che con il suo bluetooth 3.0 consente di giocare a distanza comodamente seduti in poltrona mentre la Switch è collegata alla TV, ma non solo! Infatti, impostando nei settaggi della switch questo controller pro come primario rispetto ai joycon, vi permetterà di estrarre la Switch dalla base collegata alla tv, di appoggiarla su un supporto (anche uno usato per appoggiare i tablet) e senza usare i joycon di comandare l'intera Nintendo Switch e giocare in qualsiasi posto ci faccia comodo. Oltre alla comodità, è importante sapere che questo controller pro ha incorporati i sensori di movimento (ovvero il giroscopio); questi sensori facilitando il controllo dei movimenti fanno veramente la differenza nel controllo in gaming. Inoltre questo controller pro ha anche il sensore NFC, e cioè è quel sensore che permette, appoggiandoci sopra un amiibo Nintendo, di interagire con esso salvandoci dentro le partite, le configurazioni personali dei mii e attraverso il salvataggio dei dati di gaming nell'amiibo di ricevere per i vostri inkling di Splatoon vestiti e armi omaggio gratuite in base al raggiungimento di punteggi prefissati. Questo controller pro viene fornito unitamente ad un cavetto usb per la ricarica, che così può essere attaccato per la ricarica in qualsiasi trasformatore di corrente usb (che non è in dotazione), come quello che sicuramente avete già in dotazione per i vostri cellulari. Una volta carico la durata della batteria interna è super, vi permetterà di giocare anche per più di 8 ore consecutive... veramente eccellente! Impossibile assegnare meno di 5 stelle anche se costa caro (pagato a Dicembre 2018 euro 69,77)
Dimenticavo una cosa importante... per far vedere questo controller pro alla nintendo switch basta collegarlo temporaneamente con il cavo usb in dotazione direttamente in una presa della base della Nintendo Switch. La Switch così effettua automaticamente l'allineamento del controller e lo attiva. Per vedere come si fa basta andare su youtube cercando "come sincronizzare il controller pro alla Nintendo Switch" e troverete i video di spiegazione su come "sync" ovvero allineare e rendere primario il controller pro rispetto ai joycon in dotazione.

BenReviewed in India on November 26, 20205.0 out of 5 stars An original product from Nintendo. Recommended...
This is an original product. So as far as quality goes, there is no doubt as to how good it is.
Regarding whether or not you must/should buy it, this is what I have to say.
The controller is as ergonomic as an Xbox controller; remember, they are the pioneers of ergonomics. So there's a huge improvement while playing games such as Bayonetta, Astral Chain, and of course, Legend of Zelda.
I did finish the entire Zelda game with the default controller attachment, so I don't mean you cannot live without this controller. But once you get it, there is no going back.
I recommend this only if you have the budget to spare.

Thiago L.Reviewed in Brazil on June 9, 20235.0 out of 5 stars Muito bom
Não conhecia o Pro Controller, achei mto bom de se jogar.
Para jogos que exigem que se pressione os botões muitas vezes ou que se use muito os analógicos, acabam ajudando a poupar os joy-cons, que são mais frágeis e onde pode ocorrer o "drift".
É bem confortável de se jogar, bem melhor de pegar do do que um joy-con, no geral. Mas claro que os joy-cons também têm suas vantagens, podem virar 2 controles e possuem os controles de movimento utilizados em alguns jogos específicos.
o único defeito que eu diria, é que por vezes, o nintendo switch não detecta o controle tão facilmente... Por vezes, eu tive que conectar ao cabo HDMI, junto ao switch e o controle, para ser detectado. Além disso, é um pouco mais pesado também do que um joy-con, mas isso já era esperado.
No geral, excelente controle pro Switch.
