Should have force feedback, but that's why the price is so low. If it had all the extras then price would be higher

best thing I did was pick up a couple long cord controllers like this. no charging to worry about, and if they don't have rumble, etc., then the switch can put out enough power so you don't need a powered hub. Supposedly can do three controllers like this (two main USB2 and one rear USB3). There are also a few powered USB hubs out there. One is a cradle for the main Switch doc so it keeps a similar footprint. (see https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-T...07PKG18DR/ ) others have a wired LAN port with a couple extra USB ports for those that want a better network connection than wifi (see https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-Eth...00LLUEJFU/). In any case, nice having many-multiplayer options without paying $30-50 each controller.

It's confusing because the picture shows the wire being pulled out of the controller. It's a wired controller, but you can unplug the wire from the controller for easier storage and transportation. We have several and it will not work if it's not connected with the wire.

My mistake, thought it was wireless since it came with a detachable cable.

This controller is really poor quality. I bought one back in 2016 and used it maybe twice. The last time i went to use it, joystick axis was stuck in an up position and it was unusable. I reached out to PowerA 3 times to get a refund/replacement and never heard back. I finally opened the controller and deep cleaned the PCB and removed all the leftover solder that was never cleaned up and it started to work again.

Additionally, the micro-USB port at the top requires a very long head to be able to plug it in so if you loose the cable it comes with you probably wont have a cable to replace it with.

I guess for $15 you can overlook those problems but for me, i'd rather spend a bit more and get something that lasts
