I've been debating getting one of these or the SNES controller for Switch. It would be awesome to use the original controller for SNES games, but this could be useful for other Switch games. Hmm.

The ability to fine tune it on a PC takes it another level. If you've got bigger hands the pro is the way to go.

I have both and this is 100% better. It has rumble which is nice and a lot of 2d games assume you have the trigger buttons.

Yep, this is an awesome controller and works flawlessly on iOS and Android tablets as well

This works on IOS? I thought only xbox one and ps4 controllers were supported?

I have bigger hands, and may use it on PC down the line if I don't like the Xbox One or PS4 controller for certain games. Thanks.

Thanks. Both sound like nice features, so I'm leaning towards picking it up now. Is the dpad as good as the SNES one?

My opinion is that it's even better, but I'm sure they're both about the same. I like the sn30 because it's lighter for simpler games.

This controller was really great at first but the buttons start to get stuck very quickly. Took 2 months to get replacement rubbers after contacting 8bitdo.

How much have you used yours? I haven't been using mine that much and don't have this issue but now I'm worried if I start using them more.

I bought this and now it's my preferred Switch controller, even over my Pro controller. It's awesome.
