Suspect it has something to do with the incredible demand at the moment... no point discounting them if they are selling like hot cakes at RRP....

Managed to pick up a Nintendo Pro Controller yesterday, absolutely loving it so far feels so comfortable and much better for certain games.
It has a mega battery life of up to 40hours and charges well quick due to being USB-C. I've no idea why I didn't pick this up earlier, as i've had the console a year or two.

Yes, got one for me and the wife recently, we both love ours as well, even if they did cost almost £50 each, but they make some games far more pleasant to play.
They're expensive but I can see why now, the battery life alone is phenomenal compared to most controllers. When she does manage to run it out, its because she's literally left it running non-stop for around 2 days between charges.

Hollow Knight is challenging but certainly beatable (although I bailed at the post-game content!), a couple of the bosses are tough nuts to crack but there are usually a few routes you can explore to get upgrades that will make them at least a tad easier.
Lowest it's been is 34.99 digital. Currently the cheapest physical is ShopTo £39.85. https://www.dekudeals.com/items/new-super-mario-bros-u-deluxe
Cheers, looks like I'll be waiting for it to drop again then

Got a pro controller on order as well. Having a lot more time for games lately kind of highlighted that the joy cons dont cut it for long sessions or online gaming.
Playing Mario Kart at the moment, anything 150cc up and the AI cheats like mad.

I actually prefer the Pro controller, more comfortable for longer gaming sessions with my big hands.
I don't find it so bad, definitely seen worse ones.
Yeah that was my thing, don't mind using joycons for Mario when with the misses and/or friends but for longer gaming sessions the Pro controller is so comfy and fits in the hands perfectly.
Have you tried playing a game that relies on it, such as Celeste?
For normal platformers it’s not a problem but for games that require precision diagonal inputs it’s next to useless.
On 150cc you want the slowest combination possible as the ai scales to your top speed.

Ahh not really, mainly been playing Mario Kart, Pokemon Sword and Animal Crossing so nothing that relies on it as of yet.

Anyone had a pro controller....die?
Mine was working fine. But I plugged it into my PC in an attempt to use it for streets of rage but nothing happened (on the pc side) - since then, it doesn't charge, no green lights, nothing...
I feel like its bricked
