Best wired and wireless controllers for the Nintendo Switch

Sometimes, high-speed gaming just isn’t possible when you’re using a handheld gaming console like the Nintendo Switch. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the console and all it offers! By getting these wired or wireless controllers, you can play to your heart’s content without feeling as though your hands are too big for the console. Check out these options that are available on Amazon.

PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller

The PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller sports the classic Switch button layout so that you don’t have to learn a brand new configuration of buttons before getting started. This controller has been officially licensed by Nintendo, which should ensure that it's fully compatible with the Nintendo Switch. You can connect it to the console using its 3.5mm jack. The controller also has a picture of Mario!

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller 

The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is a wireless controller that should offer a smoother experience when compared with the JoyCons. This is because the controller is the same size as a standard controller, has an ergonomic design, and the classic switch layout. The controller is equipped with the HD rumble feature, which should make the gaming experience more immersive by adding a tactile feel. It comes with a USB-C to USB-A charging cable.

8bitdo Sn30 Pro+

The 8bitdo Sn30 Pro+ sports a look that’s quite similar to the older Nintendo controllers, albeit without the classic four colours we were used to seeing. It is equipped with adjustable hair trigger controls along with a 6-axis motion sensor. You can modify the overall sensitivity of the Joysticks so that you can enjoy the game with controls that suit your needs the best. The controller also vibrates during specific instances of the game (such as explosions). However, if you don’t like that, you can always adjust the sensitivity of the same. 

8bitdo SF30 Pro

If you’re looking for a Nintendo Switch controller that takes you back to your childhood, then look no further than the 8bitdo SF30. This is because it looks exactly like the old-school Super Nintendo controllers. It is equipped with the Rumble vibration feature to bring a tactile element to your gaming experience. It has a D-input and X-input functionality for added versatility. It uses Bluetooth 4.0 to connect with the Nintendo Switch, and the connection should be strong enough to prevent any sort of lag.
