Is this same as the target one?:
Why is it 32$ normal price in target!?

This site has gone to poop. Most of the deals are just paid.
Something to think about for those OCD types.

I already had the gray/yellow version of this and bought this Gengar one as well. The gray/yellow ones fit well on my switch with no play between the console and the controllers. I believe it came out after the Gengar version.

The Gengar ones have noticeable play between the console and the controllers. I guess the tolerances are slightly off on those molds maybe. I ended up returning them and kept using the gray/yellow ones

I think this may be a paid ad or something along those lines. I saw a similar post under another username I think a week or two ago and they just reposted it. I only remember because I had a similar question.

Heads up, these don't have wireless play, and don't have side buttons, there are fake buttons, they do nothing. I bought the yellow white ones from target for $32, I wish I didn't.
They are also very plasticity, light, and feels cheap.

I got these a couple weeks ago and returned them. I like the feel of the other hori controllers much better.

I can confirm this and it's super annoying.

I own this and can attest that it's not worth it.

There are no chargeable batteries in the controllers so you only play with these attached to the Switch (no wireless mode with these) AND it'll drain your Switch battery faster since it draws power from the Switch to use them. For $15 more you can get a good 3rd party controller that is chargeable, capable of connecting wirelessly to the Switch, and has additional buttons. The Hori controllers are overpriced pieces of plastic and not much more than that.

Bought HORIs once and immediately returned.

NO wireless
NO rumble
NO motion controls (the real deal breaker)

Ive been happy with the Binbok [amazon.com]
