Snakebyte Wired Controller for Nintendo Switch & Switch Lite - Customizable Game Pad - Turbo Functions - NSW Game Pad S - Precision Joystick - Dual Vibration

First, be aware that it doesn't work out of the box. You'l need to go into "System Settings" and turn on "Pro Controller Wired Communication" with another gamepad. The Snakebyte Gamepad has rumble feature, so that is why this needs to be turned on. The controller is about the same size as the other gamepads for the Switch and feels a bit light (because of no Gyro). I like the analogs and the D-pad. The analog works fine and tested out well when I played MK8 Deluxe. The D-pad was precise and tested out fine when I played Puyo-Puyo Tetris. The D-pad never registered a different direction when I pushed the direction that I wanted. I'm not sure if it would be OK with Street Fighter because I don't have that, yet. Also the D-pad felt soft when rotating it and didn't have that rounded feel as when you do Ryu's Hadoken, but I assume that the D-pad would work OK. The LT/RT where OK and felt fine when pressing them. I didn't like the LB/RB and the ABXY buttons. The LB/RB buttons are soft and a little too low, so it was a bit difficult and uncomfortable to press. The ABXY buttons are flat-feeling than the usual rounded-feeling buttons, but I got accustomed to them after playing. Also the ABXY buttons are placed closer together than other controllers, although I didn't have a problem with that, others may not like that because they may accidentally press the wrong button. I do think that with the buttons placed close together would work well for a fighting game that would need quick input when doing combos. Overall, it was a decent gamepad for me with the cons only a minor problem for me and I do prefer it over the PowerA Wired Controller Plus.

As a claw/fingerhook style player, I've been looking for a Switch controller for a long time that had the Dpad on top instead of the default Analog stick being on top when I want to player Monster Hunter and now I've found it. After 200 hours of using this game for Monster Hunter, I can safely say this controller is great. It's comfortable and has a long cable to go with it. The only wish I had for this controller was that the Home button and Turbo button swapped places in order to make it more similar to the Pro controller's layout.

I've being looking fo a switch control with the pad in a up position like this. But this Skane byte has recognition problems. Maybe the wireles could works but the wired controler never works.

It works well, and feels good in my hands (I have large hands). my only problem is that every now and then a button or a joy stick will get stuck, and I will have to restart the controller again to fix it.

Followed instructions, but controller never worked

It works pretty well except for the pairing takes a minute. I thought it was broken when it stopped working, but I just had to update it!

Do not buy! Never worked. Such junk.

After countless times I've tried to sync this controller to my Switch, nothing. I've followed the included instructions that came with this product. Hold down the Home and Y buttons simultaneously (lights start to flash quickly after five seconds) and go to Change Grip/Order in the Settings Menu.... I charged the controller for 2 hours thinking maybe cause the battery was low it wouldn't sync but that wasn't the case. Anyway, I don't recommend purchasing the wireless version of this controller. It's a shame because it looks really cool and feels good on my hands.

It sounded promising when I bought this for my daughter for Xmas 2018. She only plays on the switch occasionally but has games that work better with a joypad. Sadly after 7 months of light use it has stopped working and their is no guarantee. Yet again another piece of useless junk away to go to scrap heaven. Amazon seriously needs to stop the sale of poor items and give consumers a minimum of 1 year guarantee!

Works well (better than the tiny dockable controllers, at least), requires the "pro" flag to be turned on on device though.

Sí funciona en Nintendo Switch. Lo acabo de utilizar para jugar Smash Ultimate y Mario Kart 8 DX.Si compraste éste modelo (Wired/Cable) y no funciona en tu Switch, los pasos que yo tomé para asegurarme que funcionara fueron los siguientes:1. En la pantalla de Inicio, seleccionar "Configuración de la Consola", seguido de "Controles y sensores" y activar "Comunicación por cable del control Pro". Con realizar este paso es posible que ya funcione el control en tu Switch, el siguiente paso es solo por si no funciona con el paso 1.2. Actualizar el firmware del control desde la pagina de Snakebyte, que se hace entrando a su sitio web en mysnakebyte, en la sección support - downloads - switch, y descargando el all in one firmware updater y siguiendo las instrucciones, las cuales al día de hoy son las siguientes: 1) Abrir el Archivo, 2) Seleccionar el modelo del control, 3) Presionar y mantener el botón + en tu control y entonces conectarlo en un puerto USB a tu computadora, el indicador LED correspondiente al segundo jugador debe iluminarse, 4) Hacer click en el botón START que aparece en pantalla mientras mantienes a la vista los indicadores LED de tu control, 5) Ya que la barra se llene y aparezca el mensaje de texto "Download Succesful!", asegúrate que los 4 indicadores LED de tu control parpadearon, si no te fijaste o no lo hicieron, no desconectes el control y presiona START de nuevo hasta que lo hagan, 6) Ya que dejaron de parpadear los LED, puedes desconectar el control.En cuanto al control en sí, a mi me parece muy bueno para el precio ya que aunque no tiene cable removible (viene pegado) ni carátulas intercambiables como otras opciones, éste sí tiene vibración/rumble, que entiendo es la razón por la cual se tiene que habilitar la opción indicada en el punto 1. para que funcione.

Un excelente control con un gran precio, hace lo que tiene que hacer y lo mejor es su relación calidad-precio. El único problema que le veo y por eso solo son 4 estrellas, es que no viene con la última versión de Firmware, por lo que hay que actualizarlo y ES UNA PESADILLA!. La actualización se volvió casi imposible, no termino, parecía que el control se había bloqueado para siempre y por ende vuelto una "piedra" como se conoce en estos temas. Al ser ingeniero tuve la habilidad de hacer varias cosas para finalmente poder actualizar el Firmware, con lo que entonces ya pude utilizar el control. Después de la actualización, conectar el control a la consola, que lo reconozca y utilizarlo es muy sencillo.

Actualizo: Las piezas de los botones L, R, ZL y ZR son de pésima calidad, en uno de los controles dejaron de funcionar L y R y en el otro ZL y ZR.Se conectó sin problema y la bateria le dura varias horas de juego.El problema es que de los 2 que compre, en uno la palanca izquierda se le queda atorada y en algunos juegos puede ser algo molesto.Si el tuyo llega sin esa problema tendrás un mando por el precio justo pero si no quieres arriesgar, compra el original...por mas del doble del precio.2
