At the risk of sounding like a corporate flunky, there is a $50 option: https://www.amazon.com/8Bitdo-Sn30-Pro-Bluetooth-Gamepad-Sn/dp/B07T8JKVNT

8 bitdo sn30 pro plus, it says in the description that it's compatible with windows 7 and works well on switch. The only downside is that it can't wake the switch up from sleep.

I use the SN30 Pro from 8bitdo but the newer SN30 Pro+ came out just recently and will probably be more comfortable to hold with the hand grips added.

They pair to the switch instantly and show up as a Pro Controller.

>Does Zelda have RPG elements? As in something to grind out to make your character OP? Whether it be levels, abilities, and so on.

Kinda, you can upgrade your health and stamina by completing shrines. No traditional experience based RPG levels, you can't just grind in one spot until you're buff.

>Is there a recommendation on controllers?

The official Pro Controller or an 8bitdo SN30 Pro+. Both are quality controllers.

The benefits of the Pro controller is that it can scan Amiibos, has HD rumble and can turn on the system by holding down the home button.

The benefits of the SN30 Pro+ is that it has a much better d-pad, and has software that lets you remap all the buttons, change joystick deadzones, trigger sensitivity, and a few other things.

>Are the A-B-X-Y backwards on all the controllers? I keep pressing b thinking it’s a.

Technically the A-B-X-Y is backwards on every other controller because the SNES controller used those buttons first. But yes, every controller made for the Switch will have the Nintendo layout.

>Now that the gripe is out of the way. I can’t wait to hop into the games on here. Are there any recommendations y’all would make for a PS4 gamer that is mostly into JRPG’s and visual novel/social sim element stuff. Or any single player games on switch you consider to be criminal to not have.

For exclusives, Pokemon Sword\Shield immediately comes to mind, that's out next month. You may also enjoy SteamWorld Quest.

There's also some good multiplatform games that I feel work better on the Switch due to portability like Dragon Quest XI, Final Fantasy 7\8\9\10, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy,
Katamari Damacy Reroll and Undertale. So if you haven't picked up those for PS4 you may want to consider them for the Switch.

Single player games most people enjoy in general and might be your type are Super Mario Odyssey, Bayonetta + Bayonetta 2, and Astral Chain.

Best option for Switch: 8Bitdo Sn30 Pro+

Not only does it have a great d-pad (certainly better than the one on the Pro Controller or Switch Lite), but the form factor and button placement is superb, and you can easily use it to play PC games and emulators

u/tomkatt · 3 pointsr/ShieldAndroidTV

I can't say enough good things about the 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ controller. I've shelved all my other gamepads since I got two of them (I have the black and the SNES model; prefer the SNES).

That includes my PS3, XBox 360, and Steam controllers. All in the closet now. Don't need them since the SN30 Pro+ works with the Shield and my PC. I just pair the PC in XInput mode (X+Start) and the Shield in "PS4" mode (A+Start). Then I can switch freely between the Shield and the PC with one gamepad.

The sticks are a bit sensitive, but overall solid with a full range on the axes. I've been playing Doom 2016 and Shadow Warrior 2 with no issues on it.

u/TemptedTemplar · 3 pointsr/NintendoSwitch

Official Switch Pro Controller $62

PowerA GameCube Pro Controller $50

PowerA Wireless Enhanced Controller $35

8bitdo SN30 Pro+ $50

Outside of Official devices, powerA, Hori, PDP, or 8bitdo; I wouldn't recommend any of the no-name brands you'll find on Amazon, as they're all hawking the same Chinese knock off products.

u/oapples5 · 2 pointsr/dragonballfighterz

here’s a possible solution I’ve heard good things and probably going to buy it myself

u/CaspianX2 · 2 pointsr/NintendoSwitch

Given that a lot of the indies still require the use of extra buttons that the official NES/SNES controllers don't have, you might want to compromise and get the 8BitDo SN30 Pro+. It's been getting really good reviews, and it's both clearly intended to cater to old-school tastes while also being flexible for use in more modern games.

u/MatNomis · 2 pointsr/NintendoSwitch

I don't know what all her factors are, but I would think that the most accessible way to play the Switch would be to use regular Switch and a larger TV screen via the "full" Dock, with an appropriately ergonomic controller. The Switch Lite screen is pretty small. Plenty of people--even people whose sight isn't great--can still use it enjoyably because, as a handheld, you can hold it pretty close to your face. However, that means you're using the built-in controls, which are decent, but probably not the most ergonomic for people with big hands and (possibly?) knuckle issues.

If you want to use an external controller, you'll have to use a stand. If you want to use the 8bitdo adapter, that stand will have to also be a mini-dock with USB ports. In either case, it requires a table or flat surface and you'll need enough room for you to hold the controller at a comfortable level and then have the Switch screen at some distance that's likely further away than that...unless you do something interesting, like sit on a low chair at a table, having the Switch more at head or neck level, and then hold the controller closer down by your lap.

Summary: the Lite works great as a handheld, but might be a little small as a tabletop console.

Another option for optimally positioning the Switch without worrying about your table level is a gooseneck stand like this one.

As far as controllers go, is this the one she likes?

A PS4 controller matches that layout. So does the 8bitdo SN30 Pro+. Keep in mind if you think the gooseneck stand idea is interesting, you probably couldn't use that with the Lite's charging dock (which has the USB ports the 8bitdo PS4 adapter would need), so you'd be limited to controllers that functioned directly with the Switch, sans adapters. So the SN30 Pro+ would still be an option.

u/Kirkerino · 2 pointsr/worldofpvp

I recently bought two 8Bitdo SN30 Pro+ controllers and have been playing Tekken 7 very comfortably with them. Worth to have a look, I'm very pleased after a week of heavy use in Tekken 7 and Forza Horizon 4!

u/audiomind5 · 2 pointsr/NintendoSwitch

The 8bitDo SN30 Pro+ is really awesome especially if you’re gonna get into side scrollers or strategy games and the NES and SNES stuff.

It’s super comfortable and pairs very easily to the switch and has a dominant d-pad vs analog stick like the pro controller has.

[The 8bitdo SN30 Pro Plus is one of the best controllers I've ever used.](8Bitdo Sn30 Pro+ Bluetooth Gamepad (Sn Edition) - Nintendo Switch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07T8JKVNT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_R2MKDbZ5PR9AN)

Works with Android and pretty much everything else.

u/lilracerboi · 2 pointsr/Tetris

I use the SF30 Pro (Also called SN30 Pro) when playing PPT on Switch.

The SN30 Pro+ will be released soon which add grips, analog triggers, and control customization through PC software.

Both of these have 4 modes: X-Input, D-Input, Switch, and MacOS.

Have you tried their new pro version? It's even cheaper than the official pro controller

This is the one I have. It doesn't work, and they even say as much on their website:

>You can not wake up your Switch wirelessly with this controller.

u/Cheeetooos · 1 pointr/predaddit

We aren't doing a push present, but I was just shopping for my wife's birthday and settled on these slippers. Alternatively, to go with the gaming theme, I just purchased this controller. It works with the Switch (and PC) and has an awesome d-pad. The same company makes more retro styled controllers but this one is brand new and felt great for old school Mario as well as some Monster Hunter World on PC. I literally got it yesterday, but I'm pretty happy with it so far.

https://amzn.to/2xQuXxU 8bitdo pro+ available for preorder

Good catch with 2.4g vs. bluetooth, I always forget about that.

The biggest differences between each 8bitdo line are aesthetics and features such as rumble, analog sticks, motion controls, triggers and turbo:

  • The SN30 is a base model that only features a d-pad, face buttons and a set of L and R buttons on the top. It resembles a SNES/SFC controller and works over Bluetooth and USB-C.

  • The SN30 Pro takes the SN30 form factor and adds rumble, analog sticks, motion controls, turbo, and a second set of triggers. Still works over Bluetooth and USB-C.

  • The NS30 Pro 2 has all the features of a SN30 Pro controller with a slightly different layout. The second set of shoulder buttons are set inside the first set.

  • The SN30 Pro+ is a SN30 Pro controller in a form factor that adds grips similar to a Sony Dualshock controller. Still works over Bluetooth and USB-C.

    Features

    It all boils down to what features you want. The SN30 is a great replacement for a stock SNES/NES controller and is about $10 US cheaper than the other models. The Pro and Pro+ will also work great with the NES Classic, and will allow you to play PS1 games that require analog sticks.

    Aesthetics

    8bitdo has a number of color variants for each of their lines that have no effect on how the controllers operate. The SN30 GP line are a set of SN30 controllers stylized like the original Game Boy Pocket line. There's no functional difference between a SN30 and SN30 GP controller other than how it looks. The SN30 Pro line has two options: One that matches the original Game Boy and another that looks like a U.S. Super Nintendo controller.

    And there's the newer NS30 Pro2, which has an NES option that should match well with the NES Classic.

    ---

    For me, I like the SN30 Pro because it's a good compromise with the SNES controller form factor combined with modern features. The triggers aren't great for modern games, so I only really use my SN30 Pro for emulators and retro-style games.

    I already own a set of Dualshock 4 controllers, so I didn't see a need to have grips on my 8bitdo controller. But if I were using an 8bitdo controller as my daily controller, I would strongly consider getting the SN30 Pro+ for the added grips.

    8bitdo doesn't do a great job at describing the differences between each of their controller lines. Some sort of feature grid would be extremely helpful.

Here you go. They have plain black and gameboy colors too.

Many people recommend this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NTNB3G5?pf_rd_p=183f5289-9dc0-416f-942e-e8f213ef368b&pf_rd_r=7J32KHMGYPW4J6148AXQ

​

Personally, I have an 8bitdo SN30 Pro with a phone hook. the balance is a bit off but the controller is amazing. There is the Pro + which came out a few months ago which is an amazing controller and anyone would recommend that one.

Actually, there *are* third-party joy-cons out there. Click

OP, there are a lot of solid third-party pro-style controllers out there. I have three of them and they're all really good(and affordable!) Links are below.

This one has NFC

This one is super versatile and has that whole "modern retro" thing going on

My fave as far as aesthetics are concerned

This is a PC controller but it works with Switch if you turn on the "pro controller wired communication" setting

Well it says Switch on the box. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

I think ds4s are only supposed to work correctly with xperia devices. Unless things have changed in the past few years all solutions require some form of root.

I have an alternative solution tho. Instead of the ds4 why not check out 8bitdo's sn30 pro plus. Mine should be arriving tomorrow, but the one review i read makes it seem as great as i hoped. its more similar to a ds4 then an xbox controller, it supports android over bluetooth, and you can charge it with usb c instead of that god aweful micro usb port the ds4 has. Also based on pictures its got a mount for phone but idk if that comes with it.
