...and? It's wired, so having USB-C standard charging is irrelevant.

It's an older design and it's hard wired most of the time. They haven't put a new port on it because why bother at this point. I suspect when Smash Bros comes out for Switch 2 there will be some more interest. This is a fine controller for $10-15 if you want the Gamecube version but honestly, just go for the wireless most of the time.

There already someone claiming their reason to return this due to micro usb and cheap build. Not me.

They have good ones and bad ones. I will say that a lot of their designs are nice and they are good to keep around for when the kids want to have 4 player matches. Their wireless Gamecube style controller is great but if someone has an original Gamecube controller, the 8bitdo conversion kits are probably a better buy these days.
