A closer look at the Switch 2 Pro Controller and why it’s one of Nintendo’s best
Posted on 6 days ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
I’m maybe a little bit late here – when I play my Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, I do so almost entirely in handheld mode. Portability and versatility are very important in my opinion, but there’s one aspect of the Nintendo 2 that ensures I play it docked at least every once in a while: the Pro Controller. Big price tag aside, it’s a big upgrade over the original Nintendo Switch Pro Controller and an infinitely better option for playing in docked mode than the standard Joy-Con 2 option.
