21-11-2024Nice looking controller, but there is an absurd amount of drift on the right joystick. And its brand new so it will only get worse.

> 3 dayBox was double taped. First one was already cut and opened on both sides. Then there was replacement tape over the original cut tape on both sides of the box. Sketchy.....

> 3 dayI tend to try and get the 1st party accessories for my systems, but Nintendo is one of those hit and miss systems. I play a lot of the older video games and the same quirks persist. I cant blame the controller, entirely, some are built into the coding. Pushing up on the directional pad, pinpointed on up and no side touch, seems to always give you unexpected results. The joy-cons seem to do better, so its not all coding either. Im 64 and 250lbs, I have big hands. You would think the issue should be reversed with the larger pro controller buttons. It likely has to do with the separated directional pad vs the solid old school D-pad. The sticks seem to work well for the newer games, Had an issue with drag in one game but Im pretty sure its an incompatibility issue since it doesnt drag in other games. Synopsis: Overpriced but decent controllers. havent had any issues with battery or disconnects(still within the first week). I like the feature to power on switch from control. There does seem to be some lag at times, but its momentary and expected with wireless. I do wish nintendo would start building with more premium parts to compete with the cheaper 3rd party controllers. But thats been a request since the NES was released(Compatibility vs function). Best controller they ever made was the N64 controller, I hated the sight of it, wasnt a big fan of how it fit in my hand, but it worked well after adjusting to the odd shape. I would have also liked them to make the +/- buttons more accessible. I find myself hitting the screen shot button more than the -(Select Key) in Metroid. Considering the games that still use Select- key are older and work better with the d-pad those buttons should be inverted. make the +/- keys bigger, maybe even the home, keep screenshot the same and SS and home in center of controller away from the d-pad and ABXY buttons. If im going to take a screenshot, its not going to be while im fumbling to swap to missiles. Overall: Id recommend it. Its a decent controller and hopefully it continues to work well. Despite its flaws, it adds to the NES nastalgia(oddly). It fits well in my hand, and it responds well for the most part. Keep in mind I play a lot of older games, so those quirks may be in part to the coding(although also Nintendo). It has some heft and doesnt feel cheap like some 3rd party controllers. Im pleased with my purchase, and reserve my right to update this if my opinion changes.

> 3 daythe box looks like it went through quite a bit the controller looks like it has been wiped down and the face plate of the controller has many scratches on it, the joystick drift is so bad i have to hold it down to remain in place

> 3 dayGreat controller. I opted to get this version over the black pro controller and it paid off. It was more expensive, but luckily I was able to grab it at retail price on Amazon (that one day they actually had it available) than the jacked up ones you see everywhere now. Feels very high quality, all tight, nothing loose whatsoever. I can’t imagine ever playing the Switch without this now. Only downside is the pink color, but eh...nothing wrong with a little standout color here and there.
