That's about what the controller is worth. A lof of users reported stick drift with the left joystick. Probably cheap machining or parts.

Any idea if the PowerA controller wakes the Switch 2 from sleep? I know most controllers made for Switch will not do that

Ugh $70 for a switch 1 controller just for nfc support is just crazy. Tons of $20-ish controllers out there that are nearly perfect minus nfc...

That's just what I'm looking for. Anything you recommend that's cheaper?

I don't believe the Power A has rumble. Thanks for the link. I just may purchase that one. I have bought 4 different controllers, and each one has a different problem.

Surprised that the Splatoon 2 controller is available instead of Splatoon 3's.

I would've liked one of the Pro controllers but not for $70, maybe if they were discounted to $50, but they sold out regardless.

Yeah power a controllers don't have rumble, I also think build quality on 8bitdo is slightly better. I don't think power A has hall effect joysticks either.

@alxdlz

The one controller brand mssheikh25 linked is pretty decent, I also had good results with the PXN-9607x controllers too as a cheaper option.

They were probably that high since they were special edition pro controllers.

no vibration though, right? that's why it's so cheap.

I have multiple of the following--
My favorite is the Lenovo S03, but here's the S07 which is even better. Very impressive modern specs.

My second favorite, but it's pretty basic no-BS specs. Very reliable. (also on Amazon)

Seller on Walmart has pro controller for $50
https://www.walmart.com/ip/55485228

Same with Splatoon
https://www.walmart.com/ip/56061809

These are third party sellers. I ordered Zelda controller last year similarly for $50 and it was legit.
