PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite - Pokemon Pikachu Gold

I found this controller to be more comfortable than the 2xJoycon in the grip included with a switch and highly responsive overall. If you can't afford a pro-controller this will do 95% of the job and is about half the price! I was going to give this 4 stars because it's not a pro-controller but considering it is about half the price and does nearly everything the same to a high standard I can't help but recommend this with 5 stars. Yes its technically inferior to the pro-controller but the lack of 2 features (Rumble and NFC) don't effect its performance for playing games, plus you could get 2 of these for the same price as 1 pro-controller. Pros: Economic - you can get 2 of these (the Zelda ones were cheaper) for the price of a Pro Controller. (If money is a big factor you can get a wired/USB controller for about £25) Wireless - runs on 2xAA batteries and lasts 30 hours Comfort - Much more comfortable than the 2x joycons in the grip, the +,-, home and snapshot buttons are slightly raised compared to the pro controller which makes them easier to use in my opinion. The pro-controller's buttons have a different profile (slightly more sunken in) so your preference may vary too. Appearance - available in a variety of styles, the zelda one is particularly nice. Some of the USB versions aren't available in wireless and vice-versa. In contrast the pro-controller is just available in black. Cons: Weight - comparable to the 2x joycons but a lot lighter than the pro controller, could feel a bit flimsy although it seems robust enough. I suspect the weight difference is mainly due to lack of rumble motors. Ergonomics - Not as 'grippy' as the pro controller. The case is all moulded plastic compared to the pro controllers rubberised grips. I've not had any problems but your mileage may vary. Features - No rumble or NFC (this keeps the cost down though) I suspect the lack of rumble also keeps the weight down too. Responsive - the controller is highly responsive to inputs, however having used a pro-controller as well it feels a bit more precise with the analogue sticks than the A-power one. Overall: I'd prefer if it was a little heavier feeling

Great controller, back buttons work well. Syncs and works well with the switch. Ok on batteries but if you do use it a lot then they run out quickly, however changing them while in a game is very fast and you get a flashing red light when it is low. Would recommend to anyone

I bought this when it is discounted to £23, and for that price this is a very good controller as it is an officially licensed wireless controller and can also wake the switch from sleep. However, at its normal price of £40 the 8bitdo SN30 Pro+ is a better deal. While the 8bitdo controller isn't officially licensed, its build quality is very good and it has rumble (not hd) and motion control. It can also connect to other platforms like PC and Android. The only reason you would want this over the 8bitdo controller is the ability to wake up the switch from sleep, and in that case just go with the official pro controller which comes with hd rumble, motion control and amiibo support.

I bought the pokeball version of this and hadn't had it a month before I started to experience problems with the joysticks. I contacted the company and they replaced it with another style and that began to have the same issues. Rather than going through the palaver of contacting them a third time, I just chucked it in the bin. Total waste of money for something that's meant to be 'pro' and an official make. I did think that going for an officially branded controller would save me from those headaches but not so in this case. Save your money and buy some spare joy cons or a cheaper brand. At least you won't be so out of pocket if a cheaper controller dies on you.

Beautiful controller! There seems to be an odd drifting issue with these that is not a mechanical fault it seems to be fixed by turning off the console and then turning it on again. Other than that it's great!

I bought this controller because it’s cheaper then the Pro controller, and I didn’t need NFC and rumble. This controller feels confortable to play for long period of time, motion control works too, the pairing is automative, and the controller wakes the Switch up. However, the left stick becomes reliable after one week of normal playing. I think it is because the left stick’s gotten used the most. The movement is jumping around. Open up the controller to have a look inside, to my horror, the manufacturing of the board is very low quality with many dry solder joints. This is why so many complaints on Amazon.com and .co.uk, for this controller after only very short time. Returning this controller and getting the Pro controller instead.

A perfect controller if you like me have small hands. The red and black colors looks great. It is very responsive and if I play a game that supports amiibo I just use the joycons instead. It is easy to program if you want to use the extra buttons. A great buy for the price .

I've had problems with "aftermarket" or "third party" controllers in the past, so I was very sceptical about this purchase, but I've been using this pro controller for about two weeks now and my only regret is that I didn't purchase it sooner! So far, I've experienced no drift at all, pairing the controller was easy as pie, and all of the buttons & joysticks are very responsive. My only criticism is that it takes a single AA battery instead of having a rechargeable internal battery. That being said, I've not had to change the battery once with daily gaming sessions so it's only a minor complaint! :) In my experience, this is definitely a worthwhile purchase.

Rápida sincronización y calidad del material. Muy recomendable.

Der Controller kam pünktlich und ordentlich verpackt. Er liegt gut in der Hand wirkt wertig und funktioniert bestens. Er leis sich einfach Verbinden und hat bisher keinerlei Fehler. Für mein persönlichen Empfinden sieht er auch gut aus. Bin sehr zufrieden

Todo en excelentes condiciones y funcionamiento.

This PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch (PAN, I got the black one) is the controller I use most often when I don't need my keyboard/mouse nor Steam Controller for fine tuned aiming or clicking. If I had to buy a controller that has two joysticks, this would currently be the one to buy. I like the feel, weight (Footnote #1), rear extra buttons, and like being able to pop in AA rechargeable batteries on the fly (I always have an extra charged set of AAs handy so I never really run out of battery). I hate controllers that you have to plug in to charge, because it runs out of battery at the worst times, and then having a cord sticking out messes with movement as well as injects another point of failure if it’s caught or bent on something. Also, the plug-in-to-charge controllers usually have hard-to-replace and buy batteries whereas AA rechargeables are cheap and insanely easy to find and replace. I won't really hold this controller to the standard of a keyboard/mouse nor the Steam Controller (SC), because for what those two are good for, they are far superior. You can't beat aiming with a mouse nor plethora of buttons with a keyboard, and the Steam Controller has an insane amount of niceties that work very, very well together (it’s great for games with some aiming). For instance with the Steam Controller, triggers with smooth start that sends analog signal first and then a clicky digital input at the end, touchpads that gently and precisely vibrate to give lots of different feelings (not just BUZZZZ) that also let you do fast and precise motions mimicking a joystick or mouse on your choice, rear buttons that are extremely easy to push that can be programmed to be anything (not just buttons on the controller), it has a gyro that is perfect to use with the touchpads, I could go on ... the Steam Controller is still my #1 choice of controller if I had no other controllers for use cases. Compared to the Xbox One Wireless (XO), it doesn't work in UWP microsoft store games, which is not PowerA's fault, no other controllers that I have seem to work with UWP games (not SC, not DS4, not this one only the XO seems to be allowed, just one of the many reasons why I don’t buy UWP games). It has to use bluetooth, and haven’t tested it with multiple PAN controllers, so I wonder how that holds up (the XO controller has to use use an adapter to connect multiple controller, but I don’t think a special adapter is required for DS4, PAN, nor SC[plus all SCs come with a free adapter whereas with XO you pay extra]). XO doesn’t have a gyro. Compared to the Dual Shock 4 (DS4) and XO, the PAN triggers are clicky digital with no analog movement (but that’s apparently true of all Nintendo triggers now oddly, Ive really grown to like the dual-stage triggers on the SC). It turns itself on when you touch ANY PAN button (so annoying when trying to put it away). HAS REAR BUTTONS YOU CAN CHANGE ON THE FLY!!! All controllers need to have this from here on out, I won’t buy a controller without it (PAN has it and SC has it, it’s insanely useful). I wish the PAN controller’s rear button could be mapped to joystick down presses (I hate joystick down presses usually because they are often required when you’re supposed to be moving the joystick too). I do like the button and joystick feel of the XO and DS4 controllers a bit better BUT the PAN buttons joystick, triggers are totally fine and I haven’t felt the need to go back and give up the rear buttons (compared to XO) nor easy-swap batteries (compared to DS4). Compared to DS4, they both have a gyro. You have to plug in the DS4 to charge it (built in battery instead of easy hot-swap batteries like the PAN). DS4 has a touchpad in the middle WITH different clicks! The joysticks are better, and it’s easier to push down on them (best implementation of joystick click I’ve seen). Otherwise, I think if the DS4 had rear buttons that can be seperately controlled (not just hardware mapped but able to use Steam to change them to whatever I want), hot-swap AAs, and I could put the controller into ABXY scheme so games used it automatically, and no vibration motors inside, it would beat the NAN and XO controller as far as controller performance goes. If the DS4 also had dual stage triggers… wow. I would still use my SC for games with some aiming (and mouse for a lot of aiming or clicking/RTS/management games), but it would probably be my go-to controller. However, for the price, features and build quality, this PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch (PAN) is my top two-joystick controller currently. Footnote #1: It saves weight by not having those ridiculous vibration motors inside, which some people oddly consider the extra weight to make the controller feel “premium,” which is a bit silly, plus having vibration that strong kills the battery too quickly so I don’t want it)
