The Nintendo Switch 2 is here, and while everyone's enjoying that larger display and mouse sensor, Hori's looking to shift stock of its older Split Pad Pro 𒐪controller. If you're sticking with the OG handheld for the foreseeable future, this is one disc🎃ount you'll want to check out.

The Hori Split Pad Pro Attachment Set has tumbled all the way down this week, a full $40 off its $79.99 MSRP. Before the new handheld released, this Joy-Con alternative (and the handy hub that connects it for docked play) had only ever hit $60 during sales events. That's not bad for one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Nintendo Switch accessories on the market, though it's easy to see why those numbers have hit a new r💃ec🐼ord-low.

The Split Pad Pro uses a rail connection method to attach to either side of the original Switch tablet and can't be used separately as a wireless controller. That means it's pretty much redundant for handheld Nintendo Switch 2 setups thanks to that m𒁃agnetic connection - thoug🦋h it may still have its place for docked mode.

Should you buy the Hori Split Pad Pro?

I first reviewed the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hori Split Pad Pro two years ago, and then I bought it outright again when tragedy (a chompy puppy) befell the thumbsticks. Before I got my hands on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo Switch 2, this was my daily driver for all Switch gameplay. The wider base, larger controls, an🐼d chunky grips make for a vastly more comfꦉortable experience overall, while the additional back buttons provide a tactile, easily reachable set of quick-access controls as well.

In short, it's cheaper than an official Joy-Con replacement, feels betꩵter, and adds useful functionality on top. What's not to love? Well, maybe the lack of rumble.

I'd recommend the Hori Split Pad Pro to any Switch 1 die-hards looking to give their handheld a new lease of life ☂in the wave of the successor's launch. With both the gamepads and the docked attachment accessory included in this deal, you're covered for both handheld and big-screen play as well.

Those looking for separate🤪 wireless controllers to up their multiplayer count will need to look elsewhere. These gamepads only 💎work when connected to either the Nintendo Switch or the Attachment accessory. If you're kitting out a Switch 2 setup, you won't be able to connect these to the side of the tablet like before - but I've tested the USB-A attachment and they still work fine in docked mode.
