The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is a game controller manufactured and released by Nintendo for use with the Nintendo Switchvideo game console. It is an alternative controller to the Joy-Con.

Design and features[edit]

The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller incorporates a button layout similar to that of the Wii's Classic Controller Pro, but utilizes a staggered analog stick layout employed by the GameCube controller and Microsoft's family of Xbox consoles, with its overall design being highly similar to that of the Xbox Wireless Controller. Up to eight Pro Controllers can be synced to the Nintendo Switch.[4] Additionally, the Pro Controller can also be paired with or connected to a PC for use with PC games, such as those on Steam which added support for the Pro Controller through a beta client update on May 9, 2018.[5][6] The Pro Controller also supports near-field communication for use with Nintendo's Amiibo line[7] as well as HD Rumble and motion controls.[8] The controller takes approximately 6 hours to fully charge.[9] When fully charged, the battery duration for the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller can last approximately 40 hours.[9] The controller also features a USB-C connector, as well as coming with a USB-C to Type-A charging cord, which can be connected to the USB-A 2.0 port on the back of the Switch dock.

History[edit]

The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller was unveiled along with the Nintendo Switch on October 20, 2016, and was released on March 3, 2017.[10][11]
