The prominent accessory creator PowerA has announced two new lines of officially licensed Nintendo Switch controllers.

Key Features:
  • Bluetooth Wireless freedom
  • Features motion controls and Advanced Gaming Buttons
  • Ergonomic design with standard button layout
  • LEDs for power, button mapping, player number and low battery warning
  • Includes two AA batteries for up to 30 hours of gameplay

The wireless controllers will retail at $49.99, whilst the wired Gamecube pad will release at a much lower price of $24.99.

I'll consider the GameCube one, even if I only use it to emulate GameCube on my PC. The shoulder buttons will probably just be digital though. I really miss the spongey GameCube L&R buttons.
