Nintendo Switch Pro Controller - Splatoon 2 Edition [Discontinued]

This was a great controller and I love splatoon so much

Worked perfectly.

Love it!

works amazing as a controller for your nintendo switch and as a huge splatoon fan i can confirm that it is epic! also whether or not you get the regular version this one or other themed ones nintendo comes up with it is one of the best controllers ever made. 11/10! its better than the gamecube controller in my opinion, the G.C.N controller is more a 9.5/10 for me still amazing but not even close to the switch pro controller!

Exactly as youd expect, its just as nice as the default pro controller, but with a splash of Nintendo neon.

The cross key always out of control

I bought this for my wife, and she absolutely loves it. If you buy AMIIBOs then this controller is a must!

I just love the colors

The controller is pretty nice actually. I like the colors and design a lot. The green and pink match perfectly with the Splatoon joycons (as expected, and the faint decal of ink and stuff on the black part of the controller in the middle is a nice touch. With this being the only Pro controller I own, I dont have anything to compare it against except other types of controllers. As a person that prefers controllers though, vs like, mouse + keyboard combo, I do go through a lot of them. This one feels mostly premium, has good weight, and balanced weight. It could go for being lighter, but I imagine that would require a sacrifice for something like that fancy HD rumble or something. The controller doesnt have any glossy surfaces really. The top is kinda glossy, but somehow, all of them appear to resist fingerprints, which is great. The face buttons (ABXY) have a satisfying amount of resistance, and no click or anything (like the L3/R3 analog stick buttons). The L1-2/R1-2 bumper/trigger buttons share this same feel, but with less resistance. The +/- (start select) buttons on it are slightly raised, but similarly to the Home/screenshot buttons, they are clicky types of buttons instead. I feel like the location of the +/- should be different, I often find myself reaching for the home/screenshot buttons instead. The two Analog sticks are nice and resistant, which feels nice to use them. They are grippy, too, so they tend to attract... stuff. The D-pad I dont really care for. It is a single and hard piece of plastic. This is similar to other controllers Nintendo has produced, but I guess Sonys dualshock kinda spoiled me, as their separated directions on the D-pad just feel better. The price for what it is seems really high. If I would price this myself with no former knowledge of Nintendo Switch Pro Controller pricing, Id say it should be about 50$ or so, not 80$. Overall, the device does well, I like it a lot, but its not perfect. If you have 80$ to blow, like Splatoon a lot, and need a pro controller for the Switch, I guess go for it. I havent tried it, but I also hear it doesnt play nice with the PC, as far as plug n play goes (akin to PS4/XB1).

I like that it came with the cable and box but after syncing it to my switch after recharging it, it would contstantly force my switch to power on after turning it off.
