But someone could use fake pictures anyways so it will always be after the fact. You can't know until you have it in your hands. That's why it's a scam.
Late answer, but i had the misfortune of purchasing a fake controller from a second-hand store selling it as genuine. When i finally got the controler i tried to update the firmware, but it didn't work. Tried the same for my official controller and that one updated perfectly fine. But yeah, counterfeits controllers can't update their firmware through a Nintendo Switch. It's a good way to spot fakes, though like me, you probably purchased the controller already before you can update it's firmware.
Bro you literally just made me want to get rid of my Smash Ultimate Pro Controller. It's like I feel so disappointed with myself. It's always worked great. But now I can't look at it the same way.
I have the same controller, but I'm not proud of it. The paint on the a and b buttons are almost completely gone, the buttons don't feel better than the joycons (they feel cheap) I don't know what i expected from ali express tbh. I don't know why i expected it to be good quality for 14 dollars. (I'm a child)
I promise the ONLY good way to know is by the rumble. i bought a fake recently and the design, the comfort and sensation in hands seems sooo good as the original. But once you decide to play a game the rumble is too present and sounds jerky. Even when my character move a little bit i felt a big rumble while the original one is soft in game. The rumble test in this video is correct because the original is loud and consistent during it while the fake one is jerky and barely "earable". i was sure it was a fake when i tried to update the controller and i couldn't (it could be not as pertinent as the rumble but i would add this) So I returned the fake to the shop (and sorry for my bad english)
In your video you told us that if your. Nintendo e shop is not in your country you have to change your country where e shop is available but I tried many times it didn't work
yea but on amazon if the seller does not say amazon or shipper does not say amazon most of the time it will say shipper from amazon . seller some random user name and store name . i just make sure my item has amazon shipper and amazon as the seller . i all was make sure where it say under add cart or buy now button i make sure i see two amazon names ebay i never buy controllers on ebay
In short. You cant really tell, only after the fact

You can know
What about firmware updates? is it possible to do that on a fake one?

Another way is by updating the controller since if you try to update a fake one it stays at 0%
How about the software update?
So what i'm hearing is, if I tighten things up inside and replace the rumblers with official, It's basically identical and $60 less? Bet.
In your video you told us that if your. Nintendo e shop is not in your country you have to change your country where e shop is available but I tried many times it didn't work
Try swift your country to New Zealand
Can you tell by model and upc numbers?
Does the fake one has HD rumble?
i litterly only hear a tick by the fake ( for the rumble)
How about the innards? Same rin kaya?
