Fuck yeah but god damn those are not cheap. Almost 200 for a pro controller?

These are beautiful but you should not buy them.

I did. The Pro Controller and the Joy-Cons both. They paint the buttons, which cause them to stick. I can use them for RPGs... no problem with Octopath Traveler, but it's unusable for something like Smash Brothers.

Eventually this friction causes the paint to flake. Here's a photo To colorware's credit, they took the controller back and repainted it for free... but the problem remained and it's flaking again.

The JoyCon buttons have fared a bit better... but the 'A' on my joycon has simply disappeared! The red letter A on the far right button. The black paint is still there underneath, but I suppose the characters are screened on and it must have 'slid' off or something during play.

In the end, these are extremely expensive and most certainly not worth it.
