***NOTE: These are strictly for handheld mode use only. It has no internal battery for wireless (is why they are so light weight), no hd rumble or any rumble, no gyro and no amiibo functions. Home button is also finicky when it comes to waking up the Switch from sleep mode.***Hori products offers great 3rd party officially licensed Nintendo products! Been buying their stuff for previous devices like DS and PS Vita.These controllers are a slightly slimmer version of Hori Split Pad Pro which are also my favorite for playing in handheld mode when it comes to the Nintendo Switch. These can only be played in handheld mode as they don’t have internal batteries to play wirelessly.I find regular Switch joycons causes fatigue, hate the analog on them and I always need a full body grip to use them more comfortably. The Hori Split Pad controllers both Pro and Compact have solved a lot of my issues with the official Nintendo joycon controllers. Other third parties just can’t compare to the Hori controllers quality, even if some say they feel cheap due to how light weight they are. They don’t have dead zones when it comes to the analog sticks!These are lightweight with backstand “nubs” on each controller to help counteract the weight of the device as you play. Removing these backstand “nubs” will cause a slight dipping when you hold the whole Switch unit as one. So removing them would defeat the purpose of these nubs, I highly suggest keeping them as they are to prevent the controllers from snapping off the Switch controller rails.The controllers are responsive with assigned key buttons you can keybind yourself. Just remember that you can’t cross keybind between the controllers meaning if you want X button on the right controller it can only be assigned to that controller, not to the left. Wish Hori would find a work around for this in the future.I haven’t had any stick drift on my Hori controllers both Pro and the white/yellow Compact versions that released way before these Pokémon themed ones. The buttons on these Compacts are more mushier than the Pro versions which I still very much like as I like clicky and mushy buttons. So it’s all personal preference.I love anything Pikachu and was so happy this version released in USA. The matching Hori Pouch also fits with these controllers attached to the OLED version. The print on the controllers are nicely detailed while being toned down vs the more bold themes of the Pro versions. Here’s hoping they don’t fade with use overtime.A tad overprice when you can easily buy a Nintendo Switch Pro controller for a bit more, but again it’s great for handheld users like myself 🙂

I found these joycon attachments to be very comfortable and work great. They have no internal battery so you can only used them with the switch as a handheld device – wasn’t a problem for me. The only downside in my mind is the lack of vibration – I play stardew usually with the sound down pretty low and found fishing super hard without that cue. Still a great product, I would get it again.

It’s great but I miss hd rumble.

I have multiple disabilities and some of them can create access issues with the Switch. These solve some of them for me. The Switch is lighter and easier to hold. It’s easier with the button mapping on the back as I can make the controls feel more natural. I absolutely love these and they have changed everything. I am a Hori fan for sure as my wired controller and my Switch case are all Hori products. They have changed how I game for good.

I absolutely love this controller, it’s so cute and lightweight. Makes holding my switch easier, and the buttons are so nice. Was also easy to set up!

I bought these to replace the original Hori controllers I had. I was a big fan of Hori’s larger joycon replacement and used them for well over two years. Unfortunately they began to drift due to normal wear and tear. One thing I worried about when buying these was the decrease in size compared to the other Hori controllers. I can say with certainty that the change in size is not an issue.Hori makes great products that are excellent quality and a great value. One of the biggest advantages for me, compared to normal joycons, is the size increase that comes with them. I have large hands and find joycons very uncomfortable. These fit very nicely in my hands and are more comfortable for my ten year olds hands as well.Quality wise they are on par if not better than Nintendos controllers. I’m very picky when it comes to controllers and tend to not use anything but OEM. These controllers are the only exception, I would use them over joycons anyday! Thumb sticks are great, buttons are smooth, the added programmable buttons and turbo are just icing on the cake.However, there are a few trade offs with these if you’re unfamiliar with Hori. First and foremost these controllers do not have internal batteries. You can not use these seperate/disconnected from your Switch. You do get a nice weight reduction from the lack of battery though. Secondly, there is no RFID reader in these controllers. You will need to use joycons if you plan to use Amiibos.Overall you will not be disappointed in these! You literally can’t go wrong for the money you’re spending and will enjoy these over joycons….especially if you have larger hands or find joycons uncomfortable. Please note that if you’re planning on mainly gaming through your tv or playing split screen multiplayer you will need other battery powered controllers! These are only for handheld mode but make a world of difference to myself and many others. If you’re considering these and mainly play in handheld mode then do yourself a favor and purchase these.Also big props on the special versions of these! I purchased the pikachu and mimikyu variant without any regrets. As a die hard Pokémon fan these are the cutest and have probably the best design of any Pokémon controller on the market hands down.

works great and way more sturdy than the original ones that the switch comes with no drift at all and I don’t think I’ll see it for quite awhile vary happy with this controller worth the money in my opinion
