I'm looking to get some controllers for Switch 1 & 2.

The best third-party controller I have so far is from Gamesir, and while the classic controls on that controller are excellent, the gyro is terrible.

I consider Nintendo's Pro Controllers unusable due to their unusable d-pads.

In the past I've been disappointed by Hori and Razer and I'd be reluctant to try Hori again.
 
The Switch 2 Pro Controller is a vast improvement over the original so that's worth trying out for the NS2, I dunno if it's compat with NS1.

You can also use a 8Bitdo Wireless Adapter to use a PlayStation/Xbox controller if you prefer.
 
For Switch One I have numerous controllers, for Wireless I have a few Power A ones and the battery life is amazing on them and they are comfortable.

I have the Blue Zelda One and the White Mario, and also a lot of Wired Pro Controllers from them too, multiple Pokemon, Zelda and Mario Ones, limited editions.

For my Switch Two, I only have 1 and it's the Wireless Mario Kart World Edition, by Turtle Beach, which has a 40 hour battery.

I prefer to play all my games with these, and keep my units connected to my TV, via HDMI 2.2 Switcher.

Since I have my PS5, PS3, XSX, X360, Switch 1, Switch 2, Sega Saturn via HDMI, PS2 HDMI, and OG Xbox via HDMI all in one.
