It looks nice from the front and I like the design, especially the choice to place the right analog stick beneath the face buttons. But what are the triggers like? Wii U controllers didn't have proper triggers, so I'm hoping this does.

Just goes to show that Xbox controller is the best.

I wonder if they'll double the usefulness of the Wii U Pro Controller and make it compatible with *two* games. That would be totally next gen.

I do not know, the design reminds me of Amazon Fire TV controller and that one was comfortable but far from overcoming the Xbox One (especially the elite) controller. And I remember a lot of people saying that the Wii U Pro Controller was the most comfortable of all and despite it being well adjusted, it did not have basic features like analog triggers.... I wonder if this version corrected this grotesque design flaw.

Using the Xbox 360 Layout and Form, you cant go wrong.

"The Pro Controller is probably one of the most comfortable controllers I have ever held in my hands, honestly, by a good margin, it’s the most comfortable controller I have ever held"

He almost forgot his agreement with Nintendo there. Not ONE of the most comfortable - THE most comfortable by a good margin. lol.

We heard the same reports about the gamepad after E3 2011 and it turned out to be true. The gamepad is far more comfortable to hold than it looks.

I wish Nintendo would have made a bigger SNES controller with symmetrical analogs and rumble.......

...said by an actor who was paid to advertise the item.

Wow. Really!? come on people, this is beyond stupid. Did an article really need to be written about this? Think about it, someone actually spent their own time writing this. Then somebody actually published it. Wow.

Here's an article for you. A guy who is currently being paid to advertise Walmart/Asda described in an interview that Walmart/Asda is the best shop in the world.

In less than 50 words discuss the meaningfulness of his statement....

OMG someone said it. it must be true.

Looks like they have tried to amalgamate the best attributes of the Xbox One Controller with Nintendo Heritage design attributes seen on the N64 and perhaps more so, the Gamecube controller.

The actor held it in their hands, but did they actually use it? Wouldn't it be better to judge the comfort level after playing a game?

the pro controller for the wii u was already pretty awesome, especially since it had 80 hour battery life.

Its better than the sticks being on top of both the dpad and face buttons.. Ill need this whenever i get the switch.. I dont see myself using the detachable controls

That might be true, of course I cannot say for certain but looking at it's quite possible this could be the best ergonomic controller ever, after all this seems so similar to the Xbox One controller that was inspired something similar(better) to the Gamecube Controller.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
