Adult owned, I barely used this controller and took good care of it, never dropped it mostly kept on a shelf and barely used it, then it started joystick drifting about 2 months later. I only used it to play Animal Crossing too so it hasn’t been rigorously used either

I am not sure why so many people had problems with this controller. We love this one! We have had ours a year now and had no problems. It is comfortable to use (I think it is way more comfortable than the joy cons in the holder) and it has K.K. on it! It does drain batteries a bit so we just bought a set of rechargeable batteries and then never have to worry.

I’ve been debating getting this controller for awhile since my first PowerA controller drifted (they have great customer service & replaced it). Finally ordered it and so happy I did! It’s cute, lightweight, controls well and easily connects. You can just hit the home button to start it up. Would definitely recommend for the price point & design.

Cute controller for sure, nothing has faded over the last 3 months. It’s a huge battery killer tho and sometimes I experience lag or almost drift like issues. Not sure if I’d recommend this unless you don’t mind buying batteries all the time.

Zero problems getting it to connect or stay connected. Great controller!! The only issue is that it is battery operated. I didn’t pay attention when buying. I prefer rechargeable ones, but I’ll keep this

batteries die within 24 hours so we stopped using it for a while because batteries are expensive. came back to the controller about 6 months later with brand new batteries but controller no longer works. used about 5 times total then left alone for months just for it to no longer work. would not recommend.

Krohm - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
It’s so much better to use for animal crossing!! The controllers we were using with the switch seemed to lag a bit and made the game play a bit more difficult. This controller is hands down the best way to go! It is battery operated which is the only downfall in my opinion. Which, I did know about when I bought it! But, it seemed better than what we had before! And I’m so glad I bought it! My daughter is 9 and it’s not too big for her. My nephew is also 4 and he has no issues with the size of the controller.
Cute Controller

This controller is lightweight and comfortable to hold. I've seen people complain about drifting, but it hasn't been an issue for me yet. I use rechargeable batteries with this controller and it seems to work fine. Also, I've traveled with this controller and it still works fine. As long as you take care of it I think you should be good.

Bought this controller about a week ago and already the right joystick is drifting, enough that it is basically useless. Beyond that, the controller is very light and feels cheap, does not have rumble, and is battery powered. Finally, my local Target had this controller with a $50 sticker price, while the app said $33. They price matched for me, but even if the joystick worked, $50 would be way too expensive for this controller given the other negative qualities.

Researchaddict - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
I'd read all of the negative reviews about this controller stopping working quickly. But my child loves Animal Crossing, so I bought it anyway. I hoped that we would get a good unit, and thought that the reviews might have been flukes. Stupid of me. Even worse, I should have known to buy the protection plan. But I didn't, and of course, our controller stopped working after a few months. We never did use it that much either, as my child lost interest periodically. So, the controller was very lightly used for most of that time ... maybe a week in the beginning, then a week a few months later... and then when we picked it up a couple of months later, it didn't work. Tried changing the batteries... twice... but nothing. It's just "dead." I would expect better for this price.
Cute but overpriced

H Davis - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
This controller is adorable, no doubt. However the sticks have a lot of travel and don't register in AC until the outer limit of movement. This controller is exhausting to play with for long periods of time. The buttons are mushy and feel hollow. It's lightweight and the plastic is not enjoyable to the touch. It looks grippy but it isn't in reality. It also eats batteries at a high rate. Rechargeable or not that gets annoying. If you're an Animal Crossing collector and just want one of everything it's a really attractive display controller. If you want to use it to play, keep on looking.
