Powera spectra wiliest controller for the nintendo switch is a fantastic alternative to other controllers for the system. All * and dpad are very responsive.
Along with rpgs i play action fighting games like bayonetta, and smash so the direction joy stick got loose.
The usb cable on the top of the controller has a locking mechanism to keep it from being unplugged accidentally. The headphone jack is an awesome feature, with it you can play games on a tv and wear headphones which are great for noisy rooms.

Among the three powera controllers i own, this one sounds like it was cheaply made.

However it’s really lightweight and i get the feeling that the design will fade over time though it is yet to do so

The cord is so long that it tends to mostly pile up on the floor when i’m using it leading to some stress on the plug and most likely a frayed cord my friend also has a similar controller that i think may be this type and his is significantly frayed and has some stick drift
