Good just not long lasting
I bought one of these controllers from game stop about 4 months ago and it worked VERY well for the first 3 then the left stick got loosened and has TERRIBLE drift. It's cheap for a reason... I would not recommend, unless you know that you will need a replacement within the year.

Probably the worst controller I've ever had
Started of great back pads are easy to swap actions but after a while both sticks started drifting. The stick drift wasn't what makes this bad all controllers develop drift, its the fact the triggers started working by themselves. I haven't figured out a work around for the triggers working by themselves yet but when i ads in a fps the right stick shoots up by itself now. But I've got cool lights on the controller. Do not recommend.

Advantage Wired controller for Nintendo Switch 2 w
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is extremely light! Ergonomics are a bit hard compared to other controllers I have, it's nothing major but could be softer and high quality. Durability is great as well as the features, like the colors in the controller and the buttons on the back of the controller to increase any game experience! Cable is great too, not too long or too short, perfect.

Awesome!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is so cool! I have never used a decorated controller but when it lights up it adds to the immersion of the game. It's comfortable to hold and doesn't lag.

Decent controller but joystick broke
I don't play games that much anymore, so it was convenient to have the wired feature. I didn't have to keep up with charging it. But out of nowhere the left joystick stopped working. I couldn't click to sprint anymore. I bought this controller so it wouldn't go to sleep while I watch movies and tv on my Xbox. I have had my other wireless controller much longer and the joysticks still work. So that's pretty disappointing. It didn't even last a year. I got it around Xmas last year.

Nice design
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm just in love with this controller, the design is sleek, the colors are vibrant, I have fun playing with the controller itself and then incorporating it into the game. The only issue for me is that is not wireless but other than that easy to connect and play !

Not user friendly
Make it easier to program the colors and crap cause I'm not buying this again. Looking for a different company right now.

Surprisingly satisfying!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay, I wasn't expecting myself to review this product but maybe it's a sign to broaden my horizons… ANYWAY! Power A's Nintendo switch controller with lumectra is an amazing budget friendly option to the original controller options from big companies like Nintendo or Xbox. Now I know what you're thinking… "most budget friendly controllers suck!", and they do, but not this one. Sure it does feel a little plasticky and light, but the mechanics of the controller in game feel very smooth. The grip and control buttons feel very natural, and the lighting from the lumectra is very bright as you can see in the picture. A little too bright for me, but it does bring some nostalgia as it makes me remember those clear controllers with lights in them from the Nintendo 64 console from back in the day. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied and I'd even go as far as to recommend this as a primary controller option if you're not really into the small original controllers that come with the switch and switch 2. And yes, it works with both options.

A fun vibe for a controller!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a fun new controller to try! I think reviewing controllers is so personal based on personal preferences, so what I like might not be what others do. To start, this controller requires it to be plugged in so it does contribute a little pull to your controller, but the cord is really long. The controller is also really lightweight because it doesn't have a battery which I personally didn't enjoy, but I could see how that could be a positive. Now the lights were really fun! There were five different options of the light display on the controller, with one even being in response to the joy stick and buttons you push. This controller does not have haptics (vibration) but neither do a lot of the larger controllers for the switch. The joy cons move very smoothly and the buttons are easy to press. All and all a great controller, it just comes down to personal preference!

Color Show in a Controller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The PowerA Advantage Wired Contoller for Nintendo Switch 2 with Lumectra is a sight to behold. I love the ever-changing colors! The controller feels comfortable in my hands and the buttons are all responsive. It comes with a wire that connects it directly to the console. This has made my game play more colorful and enjoyable.

Light up feature is awesome!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Children are enjoying the illuminated controller during gameplay. The wired connection eliminates concerns about battery depletion, and the customizable lighting modes are a valuable feature. The cable length is sufficient.

Cool controller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a cool controller for my kids to use when playing the switch 2. There are different settings you can set to change the color scheme and movement. Buttons and joysticks are easy to use and don't stick. Connectivity was easy and worked right away. Overall a great controller. Only minus one because it is wired so kids have to stay close to monitor.
