Didn't Last
We bought in January and started drifting by early May. My son has limited play time so he probably used about 20 times.

Comfort and ergonomical
This is one of my favorite switch controllers when it comes to comfortably of the grip. I just wish they gave it better thumbsticks, as this controller is prone to stick drift, albeit not near as bad as the joy-cons as is manageable with alcohol and a blower

Worth the money
Bought the Pikachu vs Gengar version of the controller at Gamestop earlier today. Everything in the product description is accurate. It's barely a step down from a pro controller. Def worth it

Low star review is accurate - do not buy
Broken out of the box. Controller goes hard left. Don't buy this one. I should have known better from the reviews.

Looks cool and feels good, but the back shoulder button doesn’t work. I got another one and both back shoulder buttons don’t work.

Control arrived broken.
This item arrived broken and the left joy stick drifts. Was told I can’t return for a new one. Won’t be buying from Target again.

Please send us a copy of your purchase receipt showing the date and store of purchase, along with a close-up photo of the back of the controller so we can confirm the model and assist you further.

Zero Stars - Missing Basics
I bought 3 brand new controllers from PowerA only to discover that they did not have the basic rumble feature. How scummy of a company do you have to be in 2025 to sell a product w/o basic features? I'll never trust this company again.

Needs trim or calibration
When connected to my Tesla this controller is much slower that an Xbox controller, is there a trim tuning on the joystick?

Breaks, warranty not honored
Controller was great while it was working. No joke, great controller, other than the lack of rumble. But after only 6 months one of the triggers (ZR) stopped working. Although it was advertised as having a 2 year warranty, it's actually impossible to use the warranty. The only contact info is one web form, www.powera.com/support/submit-case-request/ , which does not actually allow you to submit a request, just generates a null pointer exception when you click Submit, no matter what information you put in or what browser you use.

This controller is terrible.
The controller's design and feel is the standard procontroller with a few extra, mostly useless, buttons. The controller also feels very cheap especially in comparison to a non-third party controller. My controller used to be able to connect to a switch both wired and wirelessly, but now can only connect wirelessly. This made it very hard for me when i was playing at a smash local since the setups were so close i couldn't get the controller to connect to the setup i needed. My controller is also starting to drift really badly, more specifically the left stick is drifting hard upwards and i cannot play the games i want to play properly. You can't even calibrate the stick in the system settings because the controller doesn't support it. This controller has just been causing problem after problem and I think it's way more worth it to just buy a normal procontroller despite its higher price.
