The dates really ruin the design. Love it otherwise but that just kills the clean layout.

What do all the dates signify?

It looks like dates that Nintendo consoles released.

Now thats a cool looking controller. I have the Rare Anniversary edition one they released for Xbox. Pictures left a lot to be desired but I can say that it definitely looks better in person than in the pictures. I imagine this will be a stunner in person.
EDIT: LOL that keyboard. $500! Not in a million years.

If the case follows the trend of cases they've used in the past, it's nicer than you'd expect. The genshin impact version that looks about the same also has room for the charging dock in the case and has a port that would let you plug into the dock and charge the controller while it is in the case. The port on the case to allow charging is also closable and feels like it would probably be water proof (or at least resistant).


Like, not a high bar or anything I've ever considered before and probably never will again but it's probably the most well designed controller case I've ever seen.

It's a beautiful controller but it's overpriced. I do own a similar controller and it's great so far

Are they legally allowed to say Nintendo ? I guess not.

But if it were made by Nintendo and had less functionality you'd think $75 wasn't overpriced?

ROFL I love how the little hive minded twerps don't have the balls to reply and can hide behind little 'unhelpful' votes. Tools.

all OEM controllers are overpriced compared to modern 3rd party controllers

the only good thing about OEM controllers is assurance, compatibility and ease of repairs (since they sell 100x more)

Oh, hi MaratV. When did you change your name?

The irony that they're easier to repair, but they break all the time..

One of of the ugliest controllers they've made for almost the price of a OEM one Can't even tell it's supposed to be a NES special edition once you remove the dock. Is it at least a solid controller?

Can't believe Nintendo still put another garbage d pad on the switch 2 pro controller, how do they get it right 40 years ago but fail miserably now

I have the monocolor version of this controller and I vastly prefer it to my Xbox One or Xbox 360 controllers. It's solid all the way around.

It's kinda cool. The dates are really weird, though. And they could've made it look a little more like the OG controller. I guess I'll wait for the 50th anniversary controller.
