As far as I can see, it's just the basic black, and the now-rare Xenoblade 2 version (which is the one I own). Hell, even the Wii U Pro Controller lacked colors (I believe it was just black and white versions).

Remember how back with the N64, the N64 controller had a ton of available colors to choose from? What happened with that?

I can see it. There are many colors available for the Joycons, but just the basic black for the Pro Controller, in addition to the two special limited editions.

Are they any good? I'm generally wary of third party controllers.

Power A is Officially licensed by Nintendo and vary good with buttons that can be re mapped and about 30 hours on a set of AA batteries

Honestly, I don't think they're trying to push joy cons over the pro controller, they just choose to develop specifically with the joy cons or handheld mode in mind. They don't want regular games to disadvantage people that choose a lite system

it went downhill after the N64. gamecube had 4 choices i think (purple, spice orange, black, silver) within the states.
japan had more choices.

The lack of an actually functioning D-Pad and analog triggers is disappointing.

Only if your only alternative is a joycon. The pro is the best controller out there.

The lack of rumble is also pretty disappointing. They made a whole fuss about the feedback that the joycons gave off for stupid games like 1, 2 Switch, and then it all was for naught because most people don't like playing with the joycons to begin with, either because they just suck or because of control stick drift.

The Pro Controller has rumble. Is something wrong with yours?

what are you talking about? The HD rumble is also in Pro Controllers.
Is it because mine's wireless? I have a PowerA one so it's not like it's some Madcatz shit.

I'm just annoyed that the d-pad on the switch pro-controller is borderline non-functional and like the Joycon drift Nintendo for some reason has no issue continuing to sell clearly faulty products.

That's still a licensed third party. You get a discounted price for discounted features.

This is what I thought of when I saw the topic title. The N64 was the first to do this, and it spoiled me. They had the 4 basic colors of gaming (green, red, yellow, blue), and even black. Ever since then, I've tried to look for green, red, yellow, and blue in all the other consoles' official controller colors. Those 4 colors should become the standard.

Ah, they got me with the packaging. It looked like it was a first party Nintendo one.
