Very good product, recommend if your looking for a new switch controlle
It is very light and the buttons feel nice and the couloir is great too! I only dislike that it is wireless but I’m sure if you want fast gaming reactions, this is the perfect controller to use !

Good Alternative Controller optio
Overall, so far so good. I have been using it for a few months. Definitely recommend if you like wired controllers. The games I play are less intense like Fire Emblem, Animal Crossing, Triangle Strategies so I did not experience any issues of the controller not being responsive, but this may differ if you play fighting/FPS games. Some other comments on the controller:
– Controller is very light (can be a good or bad thing)
– long cord so you don’t have to be beside your switch
– no battery needed as it is a wired controller
– there is an audio jack
– cute and nice design, not boring like the typical Switch controllers
– personally it is comfortable to use for long periods of time
– a lot cheaper than the Switch pro controlle
Very nice
The only thing I don’t like is that it’s very big

Beautiful and comfortable.
Love this controller! Thank you SO much. My joycons were quite broken after less than 12 months with barely any use and i was so heart broken. I ordered one of these same controllers off ebay and it was BROKEN too so i was devastated. I ordered this one from here and it was all in working order. All buttons work fine with no gliding on the sticks and both triggers working fine also the direction pad working perfect too.
It looks beautiful. None of the faces had bubbling or were poking up. It really is a lovely quality controller and i like holding it in my hands. It is on the bigger side for me but my partner finds it on the medium to smaller side as he has large hands. I have tiny hands so if you have hands like mine, it might be ok to a little bit big but you’ll be fine with it. I find the smaller powerA controllers more comfortable to hold but this doesn’t give cramp after an hour so it’s good.
Perfect affordable controlle
I order 2 of these (different colours) absolutely love them .comfy to hold. Easy to set up. So lightweight! Not some big bulky controller that feels awkward. Such great value we’ll made.
This is the best controller i ever experienced and the only thing it doesnt have is rumble and motion controllers but what do you expect in rs.1600 Easily connects to my pc AND my pc no drivers needed to install and I recommend buying from this seller cause the packaging was in top notch condition and all in all this was a great product and totally worth the small price powera did good too well done you deserve these 5 stars

Funciona estupendamente
Solo funciona con el cable conectado (con la consola en el dock), pero va perfectamente y al precio que tiene totalmente recomendable
No entiendo tanta queja
El envo hper rpido, la calidad del mando excelente. No son los mismos materiales que los Pro Controllers y en ninguna parte ponga que lo sea. No tiene vibracin y tampoco lee NFCs y tambin lo pone. Pero es una opcin preciosa cuanto al diseo y muy buena porque la marca PowerA esta licenciada por Nintendo. 100% recomendable, lo tengo de varios meses y no ha dado ningn problema incluso cayendose, mojndose, y golpeandose
Good for your money but official Pro Controller is better?
This is the 3rd PowerA controller I have bought. I like them because they are stupidly cheap, come in a variety of funky designs like this metal mario version and they are much more comfortable for moderate-heavy gaming sessions than the little Joy-Cons.
However…. They all seem to end up with the same fate: joystick drift. I have tried taking these apart and cleaning them out (as per youtube tutorials) and it sometimes makes a difference but the design of the joystick cradle makes this ineffective. Ultimately I just buy a new controller for 20. And this is the deal: they’re so cheap it makes sense to go for the “disposable” version. You could replace these three times for the cost of an office Pro Controller, right?
Yes you could, but having just forked out on the Pro Controller, after this one has just started to drift like all the others, I can advise the following differences should you wish to invest your good money in the official article:
1. The overall feel of the Pro Controller is of better quality (or maybe it’s the weight of the battery).
2. It’s wireless (the cable supplied with this PowerA controller eventually gets tangled and frayed, especially if the kids don’t coil it up properly).
3. You can recalibrate the sticks if they ever start to drift (you can’t on the PowerA models).
4. You can remap the buttons (this is a really useful feature I recently found out but which can’t be applied to the PowerA controllers).
I would recommend these for light to moderate levels of gaming and the value make them ideal for heavy handed kids. But if you want something that will last and survive more heavy use I would go for the Pro Controller instead.
Wired and works well.
I brought this as I was fed up with trying wireless and failed to connect them brought this for my child wire plug and play and works very well.

Makes a great gift idea for Animal Crossing fans
The controller is wireless and works fine with the original Nintendo Switch(Havent tested on Switch lite). But if you know someone who loves Animal Crossing this would be a great birthday or Christmas present.
Good overall
It’s a great product and does everything it needs to.
The joystick moves further than the original switch controllers and not the best for small hands. Very plastic feel to it. Okay for the price
Funktioniert einwandfrei, Kabel ist lang genug und sieht schick aus.
Ich habe den Controller gekauft um ihn zu Weihnachten zu verschenken. Meine Schwester hat sich sehr gefreut. Das Kabel ist lang genug, sodass man auch entspannt vom Sofa/Sessel aus spielen kann. Der Controller sieht zudem noch toll aus und ist fr animal crossing Fans definitiv ein Muss. Er liegt gut in der Hand und funktioniert einwandfrei. Ich berlege einen zweiten Controller dieser Art zu kaufen.
Button are a bit flimsy
I have tried the white powerA nintendo switch controller and compared to this, the buttons on the white controller are more stable. But I give this a 4 overall as it does the job well.
Work excellent but no amibii
Got this as a back up to my official joy pad just as good but lighter in the hands

Very lightweight but works great!
After opening the packaging, I was surprised by how light this controller actually is and worried that it wasn’t going to be very good at all. Luckily, it works perfectly and because it’s light, it is very comfortable to hold and use too.
Very lightweight but works great!
controller AC
proprio come in foto ! davvero bello e i colori sono davvero ”sgargianti ” non ha la batteria quindi leggerissimo ma il cavo si puo’ staccare e questo di la possibilit di poterlo anche solo esporre senza avere per forza il cavo di mezzo , nel complesso per giocare non malissimo forse un po’ piu’ ”plasticoso ” ma nulla di insopportabile , in piu ha un cavo di 3 metri che ti permette di giocare anche comodamente dall’altra parte della stanza XD. Personalmente penso sarebbe un regalo di natale / compleanno bellissimo per chi ama Animal crossing <3 !!
Dece
Great quality, lightweight, solid buttons and sticks.
Button are a little noisy and you have to press them quite deep to work but still feel high quality, likely to last a while.
Controller sometimes disconnects, very rare but annoying even if its maybe once a week.
The mini USB is likely to blame, its cheap small and flimsy.
The programmable buttons are… there i guess, turns out to not really be useful at all. A Turbo function would have been a better fit and likely cheaper.
Great product for the money.
My step sons controller broke so I ordered this, didn’t have much spare money to spend so opted for this model and he is not disappointed. Works really well, was delivered within 24 hours. Great value for money.
Soluzione ottima per la lite
Fatto molto bene, disegni perfetti, da integrare con l’adattatore che si vede in foto ma perfettamente utile per la switch lite. Io ho preso custodia abbinata e l’effetto wuau!
I have seen several reviews saying this controller cannot be used when the switch is handheld (not docked). It can, you just need a USB A to USB C adapter (these are cheap on here or ebay etc). Just plug the controller into the adapter and then into the switch charger port and it will work.
*note you won’t be able to charge at the same time unless you use a splitter cable.
My only negative with this controller is you cannot use custom mapping however I don’t know if this is a switch setting or specific to this controller.
Overall for the price, very happy.
Works with USB Adapter with Switch Handheld AND As a PC Controller.
I never review things. Ever. But I needed a pad for my Switch as my Joycons aren’t working and this was cheaper. I had a USB C to USB adapter already, so grabbed the first one I saw on Amazon. Works flawlessly in Handheld Mode with the Switch (Probably works with the Switch Lite too) and, to my surprise, works with PC GamePass too. As an Xbox user, this is a double win. Must buy and cheap as chips!

Love it!!!!
I absolutely love this product! Although I am not a pro gamer, I found this controller nice and light, the buttons were crisp and the overall standard was definatley high! The design gave it a very retro look and it gave my set up a lovely finishing touch. 100% recommendation and I would definatley buy this again.
Cheap, comfortable& Reliable
When I bought this controller I wasn’t sure what to expect from the price, I was pleasantly surprised to find it is actually pretty good. Admittedly you can tell it is a cheaper controller, it weighs very little and I feel some of the back bumpers sound a little cheap and loud.
Functionally it works perfectly and I have yet to have an issue with it, a downside is no motion controls soo it doesn’t work with certain games but for the price it fulfilled my needs perfectly and saved me a lot of money on a pro controller.
The Good
– comfortable feel (Xbox one style)
– reliable
– light weight
– affordable
– wide selection of colours
The Bad
– doesn’t work with motion controls
– some buttons sound a little cheap (no issues with function)
– some people might find the back buttons limited movement a little awkward at firs
It’s good for more relaxed games, it’s definitely cute and functions well. I wouldn’t recommend it for fighting games like Smash though because the buttons are a bit finicky for a game that requires a quick response like that. Other than that it’s well worth it especially for the price.

Fantastic
The fact that you can remove the cable and store it perfectly

Amazing value for money!
On purchase this controller cost 12/12.99 which already is a steal!!
Only few gripes I have is that the d-pad of what I’ve used of it is not as responsive as I’d like, but that also depends what game your playing. Also the buttons are abit loud and over all there’s not really any weight to the controller.
But these are merely gripes, I wouldn’t say it affects the products quality as a whole (especially for the price)!
Bueno
Cumple con todo pero se siente sper barato, el cable es de buena calidad y es largo, solo es demasiado liviano.
I am enjoying this controller. Matches my switch. Awesome transaction. Ty 😊

Tal cual las imágenes, pero se esperaba más
Es de calidad pasable, pero muy ligero y su cruceta tiene fallos (eran 4 puntos al estilo de los joy cons). Si vas a jugar algo de peleas es bueno para no daar los joy cons, pero algo malo para juegos como fortnite
Me encanta !!
Me encanta me sirve mucho parabjugar fornite sin ningn problema , muy funcional y sin problemas, tengo con el 4 meses y todo al 100
Good
So far really good. Daughter loves it. As a bonus you can plug headphones into it which is great when playing game on tv mode. Yes there is a cable running across room but significantly cheaper than wireless version and no batteries to worry about.
Colourful Contoller great for using switch on a big scree
A wonderful controller with a fun design that matched my carry case. it was a bit weird to get used to as i was used to playing on my ps4 which is heavier than this device but it is great when you get used to it and the bright coloured cable makes it easy to find when it is mixed in with all your other wires.
the only down side – which isnt really an issue – is that it must be plugged in at all times to use and that it does not have rummble or rotate features like the joy-sticks. these featuers were things i hadnt noticed i was using until they were gone but its not an issue (othr than one puzzle in zelder) and I would still recomend this to anyone looking for a larger controller for the switch.
Product works great, exactly what I paid for, also comes with velcro strap for long cord!

Es increible
En perfecto estado y un exelente tacto para jugar con el
Supe
Super manette, reue trs rapidement, trs jolie et fonctionne parfaitement.
As Described - Great Item
This item is as described, its light weight, so if your expecting a similar weight to other controllers it won’t be, however the graphics are really good, the controller works really well and comes with plenty of cable, it’s sturdy and responsive.
It’s really well packaged in official packaging as well.
There isnt anything not to love about this controller.
Bon acha
Jolie manette, simple d’utilisation (et fonctionne sur PC donc gros point positif)
Love it!
Great for if I want to game in bed because the cable is really long.

Out of all the Animal Crossing controller designs, I think this is by far the prettiest and is much cheaper than the rest. I only wanted it for casual use and so invested in a Amazon USB to USBC adapter which allows it to work perfectly on my Switch Lite (so far). Although it is a great design and a lovely colour, it is very light weight and almost cheap feeling…it isn’t the comfiest to hold. I still feel it is an absolute bargain and a perfect piece for AC fans.
Muy bueno
He comprado bastantes controles que se sienten diferente cuando se juega y este es el mejor de todos los que compre, sin duda un control muy bonito y comodo
Vale la pena por el precio
Muy buen control, mejor opcin en calidad/precio que el pro controller. El cable es muy largo y funciona a la perfeccin. Lo nico que no me agrad mucho, es que tenia como un detalle en pintura, no se si sea la pintura o el plstico, pero tiene como un puntito que no se nota mucho, pero si pones atencin o lo tienes de cerca, lograras verlo.
Hasta ahora bastante bie
Me sorprendi lo ligero que es, me result ms cmodo jugar de esta manera y el cable es lo bastante largo para poder jugar conectada a la tele desde mi cama. Estoy bastante satisfecha con esta compra 🙂
Lovely controlle
The controller is super cute and light. Matches the PowerA Switch case perfectly. The only downside is that, unlike the official controllers, it doesn’t power the Switch on – you have to get up and turn the console on manually. Also doesn’t have a NFC scanner for Amiibo BUT for the price it’s brilliant.
I love it!
The cutest controller ever, I love how it’s lightweight and the cable is long enough Absolutely worth the money
