In case the Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Cons or the Pro controller aren’t really doing it for you, you’re in luck because accessory maker 8BitDo has announced a bunch of new gaming controller peripherals that are pretty obviously aimed at the Nintendo Switch, which you can see in the photo above.
Note that these controllers are basically wireless controllers which means that you could use them with other devices, but note that they do have Switch compatibility. Also the fact that they have been designed to look like the SNES/Super Famicom means that these are clearly catered for Nintendo fans. Both the SNES30 Pro and SFC30 Pro are similar in functionality, so it really boils down to personal preference in terms of design.
However the main difference is that the SNES30 Pro will feature motion controls and rumbles. In addition to these controllers, 8BitDo also announced the NES30 Arcade Stick which is aimed more towards users who play more arcade style games or fighting games, like Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers, or the upcoming Super Smash Bros. This also makes it the first arcade fight stick for the Nintendo Switch and it is expected to see a release in Q3 2017.
Unfortunately pricing for either controllers has yet to be determined.
