Amazon Prime Day Nintendo Switch controller deals
Expand your Nintendo Switch system with this attractive wireless controller that boasts LED lighting that can display nine dynamic colors and three light modes. The purple version hits a new record low price this Prime Day, offering 39% in savings.
I've been having fun with this adorably tiny Switch controller, which can fit on a keychain and comes in a bunch of cool retro-themed colors. You won't be playing competitive Smash on one of these, but it's a fun and cheap trinket that can be clutch when it's time for those impromptu Mario Kart sessions.
PowerA's wired controller feels great, packs bonus reprogrammable buttons and comes in a ton of fun Nintendo designs inspired by Mario, Zelda, Pokémon and a whole lot more. It's close to its lowest price right now in some styles and is a great alternative to Nintendo's Pro Controller for folks on a budget.
If you're willing to pay a bit extra (but still much less than Nintendo prices) for wireless freedom, PowerA's cord-free controller is the cheapest we've ever seen it right now. PowerA makes some of our favorite affordable controllers, and this one is one of the best in the company's arsenal.
We were impressed by the CRKD Nitro Deck, which supersizes your Switch with larger controls and more ergonomic grips. If that sounds like your jam, this neat accessory can be had for its lowest price right now.
Hori makes some of my favorite Switch accessories, and this Split Pad Compact set gets you more comfortable on-the-go controls while doubling as a pretty solid controller for when you're at home. This versatile add-on is even more compelling at its all-time low price.
Whether you're a competitive Smash Bros. player or just want to play your favorite games like it's 2001, this PowerA controller is a cool throwback from a brand that makes controllers I love.

Our copy chief and resident cozy game expert Daniel Toy swears by Paleo Pines, even if I tease him about it not being a real game. If you want something cute, colorful and relaxing, it's an easy pickup at this lowest-ever price.
