Not a "bargain"... but the cheapest it has been: Official Pro Controller for Switch is £45 at Amazon. Stick it!

Still the comfiest controller of them all. Does not have all the bells and whistles that the DualSense does, but the ergonomics are absolutely sensational.

Those wireless XROCKER controllers are £9 again.
I've been very happy with the two I got last time. Great travel controllers for the kids

Cracking buy. I use a mini one connected via USB C to play PSP games on my phone.

Hopefully KK buys it so it's free in a few days.

Hehe, it is a game that's included in PS Plus Extra :-).

Even so, ten wraps is a terrific price.

I've just created a Steam account to buy this. Now I just need a PC. Feel like waiting for the 40xx GPUs is the correct route forward.

Kind of, I guess? But official Xbox wireless controllers are about £55 and official PS5 controllers are around £55 to £58?

Yeah, it’s not a Nintendo thing with higher priced controllers, you can’t get an official one for any of the main current consoles for less than £45.

Nintendo do take the piss with the Joy Cons though when you factor in the known stick drift issues alongside the price of them.

I think the prices would be reasonable if they all came with a 5 year guarantee.

Do they? For up to how old though? Or is there just no limitation in the UK? Because I replaced my launch day Joy Cons but still have the drifting ones, so I'd happily send them in for a repair/replace if I still could.

Think of all the additional components PS5 controllers have though, the touch pad, the light, the trigger motors.

Doesn't make sense they're they same price.
