Hey, is it normal to play with this type of controller?

Listen, I've always played this game with a Switch Pro controller, but I never felt comfortable making combos and going into online battles, and then out of simple curiosity I connected my Gamecube controller And wow! It's incredibly comfortable to play with this. (Of course, you'll have to configur

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller appreciation post.

I bought it over a month ago and I’ve hardly used the joycons since. Having used the Xbox Series controller and the PS5 controller, this is very much my favorite controller in terms of grip and buttons and controls.

The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller changed everything for me!

I just gotta say… the Switch Pro Controller has completely transformed my experience with the Switch. I’ve always loved the idea of Nintendo exclusives like Mario, Donkey Kong, all the platformers that you just can’t get on PS5. But playing them with Joy-Cons was honestly a struggle bus for me. Prec

What controller/gamepad do you guys use to play games on steam?

I currently use the Nintendo Switch Pro controller to play Steam Games, but I don't really like it. I'm considering using a PS4/PS5 controller because I just like the way it feels better. Was curious on what gamepads other people used to play games on Steam.

If you haven't got one already, I highly recommend it.

The Switch Pro controller is definitely the best official Nintendo controller you can buy for Switch. I unwrapped this on Christmas day and have been using it regularly; I haven't needed to charge it yet! It's very comfortable to use and the battery life is incredible.

Modded my Switch Pro Controller: Aknes TMR + eXtremeRate Hair Triggers

After being disappointed by the 8bitdo Ultimate 2, I decided to mod my Switch Pro Controller, since I already love its feel. I installed eXtremeRate Tactile Hair Triggers (ZR/ZL + L/R) and Aknes TMR joysticks. Here are my thoughts:

Anyone else love that the Dualsense and Switch Pro controller are very slowly becoming more popular than Xbox controllers for PC players?

Like the de facto controller for PC gaming was Xbox controller back then. Only Xbox button prompts. Slowly, developers are adding PS and Switch button icons. Native gyro is becoming more adopted on PC, whether you have to plug in your Dualsense or it has steam input implementation, devs aren't cater

Update October 2022: Fake Nintendo Switch Pro controllers are now almost identical to genuine versions

TLDR: Bought a Pro controller from eBay for RRP. It is the best Fake Pro controller I've seen and only realised it was fake after very very close inspection.

Recently bought a Limited Edition Smash Bros Switch Pro controller from eBay, for retail price £59.99. Seller had very good reviews and all f

I thought this would never happen to me but yeah...

I always loved reading and watching youtube videos about the "I don't work here lady" experience, but I never thought that I would be on the receiving end of one.

So about a month ago, I was at the mall at the gamestore. I was trying to decide what Nintendo Switch third party controller to buy (I d

The Switch Pro Controller might just become my favorite all-time controller.

I was super hesitant about picking up a Pro Controller for my Switch after I saw the price point. IMO it should be priced a lot lower that is my biggest complaint about it. That being said. This is maybe the most ergonomic controller I've ever bought/held.

If fells super natural. Really smooth yet
