Nintendo Switch PowerA Wired Controllers: Official GBAtemp Review

review_banner_power_a_wired_switch_controllers.jpg

The Nintendo Switch Pro controller is really expensive, right? Sixty dollars on Amazon for the original black controller, and up to ninety dollars for one of the fancy decorated ones — there has to be a cheaper way! Well, rest assured, there are alternatives. PowerA sent over two of their sexiest wired controllers, which are amongst the most competitively priced Switch gamepads on the market. The question is, can the product be impressive at just twenty-five dollars, or is it just a cheap knock-off that's not worth your time? Read the full GBAtemp official review, and you can decide for yourself.

Would be nice if we had a review that compared all these different USB wired controllers.
Switch like USB:
Hori Pokken
Hori Wired
PDP Wired
Power a wired
Nyko wired

Then these companies are also bringing out GameCube like usb fight pads too.

Be nice to know most the options with the differences easily notated; as it seems like a lot of options.

Send over one of each and I'll do it lickety split :P

    I wanna grab a 360 Slim and a 360 E one of these days. Missed the boat of getting them at their lowest though, once they were discontinued. Could've got them for cheap back when I was a broke 20 something working at Target, but then again, I was a broke 20 something working at Target
