Unlike it’s larger sibling, the Nintendo Switch Lite does not come with detachable controllers. As such, it’s not possible to play two-player games on the console as easily as one could with Joy-Cons. As such, you may wish to invest in a second controller. While Nintendo’s official Pro Controller is pretty good, it can be a little bit pricey. As such, you may wish to invest in a third-party pro controller. Such a controller will not only allow for two-player co-op, but it can also be used as a secondary controller if you find the standard controller set-up a little too cumbersome. Here’s a look at some third-part pro controllers for the Nintendo Switch Lite that are available on Amazon. Do note that these products are selected based on the features on offer.
The Sunjoyco Wireless Remote Controller is ideal for those used to an Xbox One controller as the design of this Pro Controller is quite similar to it. The controller not only supports wireless connectivity but also offers support for gyro axis controls and vibration. The device is also compatible with the standard Nintendo Switch.
This Pro Controller from PowerA is a wired controller for the Nintendo Switch Lite. So that needs to be kept in mind when buying this controller. However, since this is an officially licensed controller, you should not have any issues with compatibility. The design of the controller is your standard asymmetric layout which should make it easier to use.
Like the PowerA Controller, this Hori controller is also a wired controller that is officially licensed by Nintendo. So you should not have any issues with compatibility. However, what is different is the D-Pad. This controller gives you two D-Pads to choose from and they can be swapped as per your preferences. Another cool feature is that the unused D-Pad can be safely secured behind the controller. So you won’t accidentally misplace it.
If you’re a fan of the classics, then this controller might be just what the doctor ordered. This controller by 8Bitdo is designed to emulate the classic Super Nintendo controller. However, the new controller still offers you full functionality of a modern controller complete with analog sticks.
