This is a great alternative to the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller with some nifty features of its own, including great build quality, two remappable buttons on the rear and up to 30 hours of battery life via wireless connection. This is the standard black colorway and the cheapest on offer, but a number of officially-licensed designs have also been discounted.

The PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller is slightly cheaper than the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, and is often better value thanks to its semi-frequent discounts. This is compared to the official offering which typically holds its retail price throughout the year.

PowerA's gamepad is no slouch, though, offering fantastic build quality, a pair of remappable buttons, superb modules (especially those analog sticks which I actually prefer here over Nintendo's pad) and pretty great 20-30 hour battery life on average. It doesn't rewrite the books when it comes to the best Nintendo Switch controllers, but it's nonetheless a solid choice if you prefer to play Nintendo Switch games on your TV.
