This two pack is a budget wireless controller set for Switch and Switch 2 that seems aimed at casual play and kids. The smaller, lighter shape is comfortable for some hands, gyro works, and the price makes it easy to hand out or replace. The tradeoffs are clear, though, with no rumble, no NFC or amiibo support, no hall effect sticks, and reports that it cannot wake the console. PC support also looks shaky, and the included cable count is only one for the pair.

Common Questions (5)

  • It is about 17% smaller than a standard Pro Controller and several buyers found it a good cheap option for kids. Others found it too small and returned it, so fit depends on hand size.

  • No. It does not wake the console by pressing the Home button, and it is effectively a Switch 1-style controller that works with Switch 2 rather than a full Switch 2 wake-capable pad.

  • It has no rumble and no NFC/amiibo reader, and it is not Hall effect. The upside is a lower price and a smaller, lighter form factor that can be easier for kids or smaller hands.

  • It is listed for Windows and can be used with Steam Input as a Switch-style controller, but it may not present as XInput by default. One report says it did not work in Steam on Windows even in wired mode, despite the manual claiming wired PC play.

  • No. The 2-pack includes only one cable, so you may need a second cable if you want to charge both controllers at the same time.

Where do you see 2 wireless PowerA controllers for $30, or $15 each?

Can this connect to the Steam?
BB page claims "Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch – OLED Model, Windows"

Should be recognized as a Switch controller, not noticing (at first glance) an XInput mode but worst case you can tell Steam Input to pretend it is an Xbox controller. I have a controller that has both modes but I tend to do that (in Switch mode) because the gyro is omitted with XInput...not sure why so many companies do that as gyro shouldn't be tied to mode, no functional reason to limit it like that.
BTW there are single controllers available for $20 and open boxes (in both colors) orderable for as low as $14. Great for people like me without any friends Wink

Why can't controller manufactures make controllers with AA batteries. That one thing that XBOX got right.

How in the actual F does anybody shop at worst buy?
Their app and web site sucks so bad it's even worse than 90's dial up.
Neither the website nor the app are even useable at all.
Been trying to manage my cart for a half hour now
I just give up just like I gave up trying to use my $10 rewards cert
It takes literally a month to browse 10 pages it's such garbage

yeah, their site is horribly slow to load things up on most pages for at least the past few months. Does anybody not have that issue? Maybe certain browsers?

This wouldn't let me buy it saying I exceeded some limits. Turned out the free nintendo online included has a limit and had to remove that separately before it let me check out.

In for 1. Annoyed the old Switch 1 Pro controllers can't "wake up" the console by pressing the home button. It looks like this should be able to do it otherwise will return if not.
It does not turn on the Switch 2. Its a Switch 1 controller that works with Switch 2.
