Ranking The Nintendo Switch Online Controllers From Worst To Best
42I love playing games from the Nintendo Switch Online Service on the Switch, Switch Lite, Switch OLED, or hopefully on the upcoming Switch 2. One of the neat things that Nintendo has done when it comes to the Switch Online Service has been the one-off controllers replicating the look and feel of the originals. But not all controllers are made equal, and some of the Switch Online Controllers offer a better experience than others. So let's rank the Nintendo Switch Online Controllers from Worst to best, least favorite to absolute favorite, from epic fail to masterpiece.
The Worst:
Nintendo 64 Controller
Review - • Official Nintendo 64 Online Controlle...
One thing I will say about all of the Switch Online controllers is that they nail the look and feel of the originals. The problem with the N64 Switch Controller is the fact they got the analog stick so very, very wrong. It is way too stiff, imprecise, and overall ruins the experience. This was truly a disappointing experience for me, so much so that I have sold my N64 controller.
3rd:
Sega Genesis 3 Button Controller
Review - • Is the Genesis Nintendo Switch Online...
This was a hard one for me as I was never really a fan of the 3-button controller for the Genesis, I preferred the 6-button a lot more. Now with the Switch Online, it doesn't have any games that really could take advantage of the additional buttons but the overall ergonomics are just so much more comfortable for me. I also thought the D-Pad needed a little improvement as it felt a bit stiffer than the original's, which hurts its performance.
2nd:
NES/Famicom Controller
Review: • We FINALLY Got the Nintendo Switch NE...
The NES and Famicom controllers are virtually identical, with a basic color and theme change different between them. These controllers look and feel great, the buttons and D-Pads are amazing, and I love that you can charge the controllers by just connecting to the Switch rails like a Joy-Con. These could only be bested by 1 controller.
The Best:
Super NES/Super Famicom Controller
Review: • I Finally Bought a Nintendo Switch Su...
My favorite controller of all time is also the best Switch Online Controller to date. This controller is almost perfect, with great ergonomics, and fantastic performance, and whether you look at the Super Famicom or Super Nintendo version, they look just like the originals with some additional SL/SR buttons. I love these controllers so much and, next to using the Pro Controller, this is my go-to on the Switch.
