While we have sen lower price drops on the HORI Split Pad Pro Nintendo Switch controller, we are now tracking the first notable price drop on the Pokémon Legends: Arceus model. This one was released just ahead of the game back in early January at $60 alongside the matching Adventure Pack and Vault Case with today’s deal being the first decent price drop on Amazon at $54.14 $53.41 $53 shipped. Just keep in mind you can score the Translucent Black and Volcanic Red models at just under $45 right now. A notable collector’s item or just for fans of the world famous pocket monster series, the Pokémon Legends: Arceus edition includes the same “full-size” controller experience in handheld mode the Split Pad Pro is known for. Alongside turbo functionality, it delivers a complete suite of triggers, thumbsticks, face buttons, shoulder triggers, and more. Head over to our launch coverage for a closer look and more details on the entire lineup of HORI Pokémon Legends: Arceus gear as well as our hands-on review of the game itself. Then hit the jump for additional info.
As we mentioned above, you can score a Split Pad Pro for even less if you don’t want the Pokémon treatment. But the PowerA Joy Con Comfort Grips at under $10 is easily one of the most affordable ways to transform your Joy-Con into a more traditional controller form-factor for folks that don’t require the all-in-one vibe on the HORI options above.
In other Nintendo Switch news, we just got a look at the new dock alternative from Human Things with its latest Genki mini and be sure to check out this deal on Collective Minds Switch-Up adapter that allows you to use any Bluetooth controller (PS4, PS3, Wii U and Xbox) on your Nintendo console.
