Ordered a Sn30 Pro+ over the weekend! The main selling point for me were the adjustable triggers along with the ability to buy a clip for use with my phone. I have enjoyed my N30 pro for years, but it was time to get something bigger and better.
Nice! Yeah this one is definitely the next step up. Good choice in my opinion
I want a pro controller. My hands are just acustomed to the feal of the controllors I grewup with on systems like ps2 and gamecube.
Got lucky and bought a Official Pro Controller from a Pawn Shop for $15. It was in practically new condition and came with a charging cable. I still love my 8bitdo Pro+ though. It's a must have.
Picking up the SN30 pro+ tomorrow and I cannot tell you how hype I am, and this video made me even more excited!
Subbed my man keep it coming!
Thanks for helping me decide! Just bought a Power A Nano, the Pikachu 25 black and yellow version. Super excited to get it!
How are they?
How is it?
Thank you so much for this video I needed to find a good controller that could scan amiibos
I love these no nonsense videos! Quick clear news/reviews without saying the same thing over and over again! (Hughrumm RGT85..)
I actually use a Power-A controller and absolutely love it.
As I'm ripping through all your old videos you post another 🤸 this channel is a gem 💎
If the lack of NFC is not a problem, the 8bitdo SN30 + is definetely the best option. I've had mine for about a month and I no longer use my pro controller anymore.
Yeah it’s really good
Same. Don't know why you would spend 30 more for something with less customization options (even if you don't use them they are nice to have just in case you do) as be a superior D pad. Also I'm used to the analog layout of it as I mostly played PS back in the day.
How about the HD Rumble?
@@bg5510 No one cares. It is not that much difference from the standard vibration controls. A gimmick that is barely used to it's full potential in most games.
@@bg5510 The rumble on the SN30pro+ is nice. You can make it stronger via the windows configurator and believe me, cranking it all up is amazing. Imo, the Nintendo Pro Controller has a rather weak rumble, barely there.
I use the original Nintendo Pro controller for 3-D games and the SN30pro+ for 2D games just because I think it’s the most natural way to hold your controller for each ”genre”
Just ordered the GCHT Gaming controller. Its 25 bucks now! Hoping this thing lasts. Thanks for the review brutha.
I’m thinking the 8bitdo because of the stick placement. It’s so hard to find that stick placement for switch. I find the offset stick placement so uncomfortable (Xbox and switch pro controller). Thanks for the video!
The SN30 Pro+ is my current daily driver. Interesting thing that you point out with the stick placement, because the PS4 is the other home console I have. So jumping between both systems has a somewhat homogeneous feel to my console gaming. It was supposed to be a big deal that the Playstation Final Fantasy games were coming to Switch and to a Nintendo console for the first time, yet playing those games with the Pro+ just made me feel like I was playing them on a Playstation like back in the day. Which isn't so much the case with an asymmetrical stick layout.
Have u got drift stick so far
That's interesting because I've been a xbox guy since it came out, I like the asymmetrical sticks. No hate for ps
It comes down to preference, I guess. But at least for d-pad heavy gaming, the PS layout is definitely better.
Just finished the whole video. I’m intrigued by your thoughts on the 8bitdo D-pad. I have the 8bitdo wireless for the Super Nintendo Classic but I was not a fan of that D-pad. And I’ve been looking for something specifically for the D-pad on the NES and SNES games on switch. Thanks for the review.
Yeah I think it’s very very good but that’s just my opinion
@@destructodisk9074 I have looked for the Super Nintendo branded controllers but they have been out of stock on Nintendo’s website for 6 months. And after using some others I’ve come to enjoy the handles these newer controllers have.
Thank you!
I just got a afterglow controller and it's my favorite so far and I have 3 switch controllers mainly cause of the lights but the buttons on the back are really cool too!
Just got myself the newer 8bitdo Pro2. Best controller I've ever bought. 50 bucks is unbeatable. The dpad is truly "pro" level.
My blue Zelda Power A controller has been a solid choice since day 1! The charge last forever as well!
In my opinion, the best controller is the NS32 because it can go a month without charging and has a 6 axis gyro, hd rumble, and a turbo function, making whatever button you want to be more sensitive. It is ridiculously good I’ve done some serious squad wipes with this controller.
Does it have the stick drift problem?
@@Phinnigga nope it’s doing really well as far as I know in that department
I did if I finally did it I've watched you for a while now and I finally subscribed
As someone who has 4 little siblings and a lot of cousins, pro controller alternatives come in handy a lot. 2 Power a enhanced wireless controller (double aa battery), 3 Power a Gamcube wireless controllers (My prefered controller for mario 35 3d Collection TBH), a PXN 9607x, a Pro Controller and a 8bitdo controller Gameboy color.
You got options!!
@@certifiedbruhmoment85 i actually gave that controller to a little cousin for christmas lol.
@@DripMediaGaming Thanks man. Its mostly because i play a lot of different types of games so the controller i use is what i feel most comfortable for said game
Subscribed bro. Keep the content coming
My most used controllers are the Binbok full size joycons, SN30 Pro (not plus I bought this for SNES style games), and the Nintendo Pro Controller.
Had my SN30 pro plus for awhile now its my main controller, only thing that I dislike is that I can't wake up the switch with it, but maybe they'll update the firmware soon.
I dont think thats firmware based but also licensed from nintendo or smth
I have the sn30 pro+ and as a kid who grew up playing PlayStation and snes it’s literally my favorite controller I have (besides my Nintendo snes switch controller) and the dpad is amazing
Love 8bitdo, have six button and nes30, great controllers, plus the donglethat lets me use the 360, ps4 and wiiu controllers on my switch, awesome
Awesome video
Love my Pro Controller. Can’t wait to try the Nano enhanced controller.
Love my nano!
Same mine is coming next week. Sold out at BB but there's some at GameStop online yet.
They are still kinda difficult to find. Still not even a page to link on Amazon
@@DripMediaGaming they have them at my local Gamestop!!
@@fino963 check walmart
On my old Switch pro controller (I gave to my brother and yes, it was brand new from a store) never got 40 hours on the battery life, I usually got 20 which is absolutely fine and I do highly dislike it's D-pad. It's awful in fighting games and side-scrollers. I do like the pro controller though regardless. I like PowerA and Hori wireless controllers more than the pro controller tho.
Decided to get the Smash Pro controller. It's got all the features I want and is an official Nintendo product! Thanks for reviews.
Where did you get it? 👀
@@alexanderl8417 best buy
How do you feel about the PXN 9607X? I just picked one up and honestly love it!
TURBO!!!
I thought we left the turbo button back in the 90s
I just want a controller that won't drift on me
feel you
I would have imagined someone would fix that problem. If they did, they would rank higher than the Nintendo controller.
So my friend the other day brought his switch to school, and he had the afterglow switch controller, sooo cool I recommend you check it out, I’m planning on buying one myself soon
Official pro controller or powerA fusion pro controller
Agreed. Ut they make it nore bearable with deadzone adhustments
thx for the reviews but next time could you talk about drift and how long they will last:)
Yes I need a controller that will actually last!
I just got the PDP after glow deluxe wireless controller and it’s damn good.
Does it wake up the switch if you press the home button ?
The power A controllers is honestly one of the best controllers to start off with if you able to fine some at a low cost, i bought the animal crossing power A controller for 15 to 25$ on sale inside a burlington honestly a good purchase for start off controller
I’m getting the white power A controller for Christmas! I’m so excited
How is it?
Bought the Power A Micro on your review also Subscribe to your channel, thank you!
I saw another reviewer have some serious connection issues whenever there wasn't a clear line of sight with the Switch. Did you have any issues with connection dropping out? Otherwise, love everything about it! Size, color, quality build, quiet buttons, fast mappable paddles. Can't wait to try it out.
I have a older powerA one and it uses the batteries and it lasts longer than 20 hours (for me around 30) I play like 6 to 10 hours a week.
Finally ordered the Pro controller for my Switch Lite. Excited when it arrives next week.
How is it?
@@youraveragejoe2
I don't like the d pad but other than that is a good controller.
Thx, i been wanting get another pro controller for me and brother but nintedo is pricey and not a lot of variety
I just picked up the 8-Bitdo ultimate Bluetooth wireless controller with the hall effect sticks. Definitely worth reviewing before everybody else jumps all over it. I've only seen one review with any substance on RUclips so far. Cheers.
Yeah I’ve been meaning to do that. I just sent out an email so hopefully I can get one on the way here this week.
@@DripMediaGamingit is very nice. Does everything but NFC. Feels more premium than the pro 2. It's basically like holding an Xbox controller. It's the pro 2 for the Xbox controller people. The build quality. Good but could use some grippy material beside molded plastic. It definitely looks cool on the charger. 🥳. It comes with a Bluetooth dongle so you can use it on pretty much anything or wired. $10 less than the pro controller. If you like controllers it is definitely something you will have fun with.
Hey on April 4th PowerA is releasing a $100 fusion pro controller for the switch and it would be cool if you could make a review on it because you seem reliable like you know what you're talking about
Edit: they keep delaying the release date so idek anymore
I've used the 8-bitdo SN30 pro+ since day 4 of owning my switch lite. It's solid, comfy and a joy to use, but use it to play intense games that rely on the D-pad like MK11 and the D-pad will become loose and rattle inside its plus-shaped hole in no time.
But that's its only downside. I've dropped it on hard floor and rage-threw it a few times and it's still fine.
I think the PDP Afterglow controller is great
Love your review its really good but do you have to shout so much haha
I need this because I got some from the store and it just feels really plasticy
Nice to have you back water 💧
Lol thanks Max!
Good news, you can get the pro controller at retailers like Walmart for only $60, not $70
Or you can get the 8bitdo controller for just $40, have more customizing options and a superior d pad.
@@SourStrawberrys
Quite epic
But no NFC...
I mean who even uses that shit.
@@vinxcxcxcxc6354 people who waste their time still collecting amiibnos and amiibo cards. The only game I use amiibo cards for is BOW. But I haven't played that game in a year.
Glowy! Hoppy!
Im really digging that powera nano controller.. Anyone knows when that controller comes out officially in the west? My short attention span forgot if he mentioned that..lol 😌
Gamestop has them instore
@@JamesDBuzzard thanks
It’s horrible for the games that use rumble. I cannot use it with animal crossing. F Nintendo for banning rumble on third party controllers
I hate the grip for the joy cons so much I never used them I finally got a pro controller I have been using the joy cons since the switch released
Don’t take his suggestions lightly, he is the master of grips
Haha thanks joe!
True

@@certifiedbruhmoment85 LOLZ
Does the cgc whatever its called the red and black one does it come with a charger
Great recommendation video, I was actually about to buy an official Nintendo Switch Pro controller but I wasn't a big fan of the feel of the and buttons. That was until I learned about the Power A Fusion Pro controller for the Switch. That controller is THE REAL DEAL. Despite it not having rumble and it being the most expensive of the third party controllers I know of, it is a really good premium feeling controller! I hope you get to review it soon :D
can you use the power A for pc??
I like the one that he calls the 8bitDoo, I can use it for my NintenDoo
Thank you. Saves me a lot of time
Been using my Gamesir T4pro. Doesn't have NFC and the buttons are labelled for Xbox/PC... but it's half the price of a Switch Pro controller and it works with PC and android as well!
The GCHT just talks to me for some reason. I might order it
I ordered the nano on Friday and it came today but I alas I got surgery and I won’t get out until Tuesday
yeah i've been going on all local stores and local retailers to find the pro controller and can only find the power a controllers
8bitdo SN30 Pro+ love it! Use it for both Switch and PC. I got it as i have joy con drift, and saw mixed reviews about whether the Pro Controller had the same issue.
why not just buy a spare joystick and replace it. it is easy and cheap.
@@flyingpotato3593 because i don't want to have to take apart my switch and risk breaking it in the process?
@@nyxaelia115 I think not you only need is to remove screws.
@@flyingpotato3593 have you watched a video of someone replacing the joystick? You have to open it from the back, take out all the insides without breaking any of the ribbon cables, install the joystick, and then put if back together without breaking any of the ribbon cables. Either way don't judge someone for not wanting to do repair work on their own switch, it's tiny little parts and not everyone is knowledgeable or coordinated enough to do it themselves. I
@@nyxaelia115 You can send them to Nintendo for a free repair/replacement! If you Switch is still falling under warranty you get the shipping costs covered but if the warranty has ended, you only need to pay for shipping (for me it costed 7.25 euros in The Netherlands). Good to note is that they return the Joy-Con(s) for free!
I upgraded to the wired pro controller today LOL and I see this video right away
Sounds like a down grade lol ha ha wires jeeze
@@mattjohnson8090 you may think that but it’s an upgrade because even tho it has wires it still works just like a pro controller
@@Josh501st plus no chargjng it either
@@youraveragejoe2 yea that’s an advantage
Check out the Nintendo 64 control style for the Nintendo Switch
Just here cuz my Joycons have da Drift :D
Gamesir T4 Pro. it has everything plus 4 back buttons, turbo, macro, except the amiibo scanner.
I was actually thinking that some third party controllers would have fixed the joy con drift problems.
Sadly, the Nano Enhanced Controller isn't available here in the Philippines :(
I just realized none of these have headphone plug in, that sucks I might as well get a triple A wired controller
GCHT all the way here. Already got three of those controllers.
First one has drifting gyros but the other two are pretty much perfect.
For 20 bucks. Any thoughts on the Ruida?
Can we get an updated version of this? it seems theres more out there with rumble and gyro now?
Can you share which new controller there are?
I found a pro controller for $44 at target new so yeah if you shop around you can find one cheaper
That SNES looking controller looks great
It's better than the pro controller imo
It’s really really nice!
Can you try the Surge switch pad pro
I see that from @it came from box
For now I'm using my DS4 controller, but with this 8bitdo adapter it's sometimes disconnect controller. Definitely i love the style of PowerA nano but I'm afraid of vibrations lack.
What I’m wondering is it smaller than a ps4 controller at 6:45. i forgot the name but it’s the one he was saying it was his favorite before the pro controller
I got the gold and black pikachu power A wirless controller and the guy at gamestop aaid that i can return it for a diffraction pro controller of the same price at any time i want since i got the 1 year warranty im definitely gonna try the nano one day
My favorites are the 8bitdo SN30 Pro and SN30 Pro+ controllers, but the D-pad placement isn't ideal for all games, so I switch it up. I've also been using the PowerA wired controllers for those games with the dominant joystick controls, but I'm on the second one that's starting to suffer from the stick drift. How long do the wireless ones last before stick drift becomes an issue?
Yo, could you please tell me how accurate the control stick sensitivity of the GCHT controller?
@Fytren21Thanks!
Powera nano rocks!!!
intersted in the SN30pro plus ( though would prefer asymmetrical sticks), but i own the SN30 pro and find the rubber matierial on the stick wear down pretty quickly. The first time i used it was for an hour. we played a bit of smash, mario kart and mario tennis and there were already black flakes coming off. I know this isn't a one off issue as i've used 3 sn30 pros and they all did the same thing. ..has me worries as these appear to be the identical stick.
1) just wear gloves or get stick caps, the salt from your sweaty hands is doing it.
2) I’m pretty sure they reused the pro sticks on the pro +
@@russiancheems2275 I'm ocd when it comes to my electronics so my hands are always clean. I've tried with multiple sn30 pros, some right out of the box. They're just cheap sticks
Hey, how about wake up feature on original switch procon ?
Useful to put video in 1.25 or 1.50 speed
Drip: the battery lasts 40 hours
Me: ok so ill have to charge it twice a week.
😂
In case of drift, if we pair a controller and use it will the switch stop taking input from the handheld and only take inputs from the paired controller?
I have like the $30 one from Amazon right now, and I really don’t like it because the buttons are SO loud. So idk hahaha
I just got the Power A Nano . Love everything about it except the plus and minus buttons and its so frickin comfortable to hold that ill work through it . But did you notice the Switch doesn't detect the battery ? It shows up in the controller select screen with no battery icon . The only way i can tell if it's charging is light to the right of the right bumper trigger combo and i have no way of knowing how much charge there is unless its full and the light changes color . Are you experiencing this bug ? It works great, i am just puzzled as to why the battery isn't detected, it's licensed by Nintendo . It has no rumble or amiibo functionality, but i I don't think that has anything to do with the Switch being able to see the controller's battery .
I went through multiple controllers after my pro controller got major drift so I got power A wireless and wired which where fine but then I got the 8 bitdo which I use for my pc and switch constantly and it’s still great feeling still after a year
Which would you recommend is better on not dealing with the stick drift?
Does anyone have any experience with the NYXI Wireless Joy-pad with 8 Colors LED? I mainly play docked but the appeal Of extra joy cons the occasional time I play undocked is a draw. Or would I just be better off buying a dedicated pro type controller. Thanks.
I have been looking at the official Switch Pro Controller so I may get that for Christmas this year but I also just remembered that I may also want one for my XBox down the line. Has anyone found a pro controller that can control more than one console?
The only problem with the switch pro controller is left analog in the wrong place, it just hurts my finger, Wii had a better "pro" controller that at least didn't hurt my finger after an hour of playing. Idc about amibo and everyone older than 13 shouldn't, vibrations are good if they are on a ps or xbox level, only motion controlls are great and idk why nobody thought about it earlier.
What’s your rankings from worst to best
Which is the best for fortnite besides the SN30? I’m thinking of getting the power a

i use a controler, it was a cheap $20 one. but it has one major thing I like about it. it moves the home and screenshot buttons AWAY from the plus and min buttons that you use to open menus. they button layout for the switch on joycon is super annoying. you need to stop moving to open a muen with ur left thumb, or u need to go to the other end of the controller on the right. (and I sometimes press y when I do it) orirally the brand was ralthy, but I cant find them. another brands stoga. they move the screen shot, and its turbo button to the bottom of the controller where the xbox1 has its headphone jack. and makes the home button a bigger glossed button between the + and - so its a more natural layout.
I have the PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller featured @5:40 in this video.
Do any of these controllers have issues with drift?
Does the powera nano's dpad have a center pivot?
Can you use the 8bitdo controller straight out the box on my switch or do you have to have a computer to update the firmware only reason I ask is cause I don’t have a computer to do so but I really want to get one but worried it won’t work?
