As much as I love my Nintendo Switch, and I certainly do, it’s the first console I’ve bought where I haven’t exactly been going wild with buying extra controllers. On the GameCube, I bought nearly every new color Nintendo put out. With the Wii, you better believe I have those specific Mario character Wiimotes lying around in storage.
Not so much for Switch. Between the asking price of $80 for new Joy-Con and $70 for a Pro Controller, the allure of owning a massive armory of official Switch accessories just isn’t there. Besides, why spend that much money on official Nintendo controllers when an officially licensed PowerA controller is nearly just as good for $20 less?
