If you’re searching for a great Nintendo Switch deal ahead of Amazon Prime Day, then look no further than this price cut on one of my personal favorite accessories: the Hori Split Pad Pro. As someone who predominantly uses their Nintendo Switch OLED in handheld mode, it’s easily the controller that I use the most while I’m out and about.
The superb The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom variant is available for just $48.20 (was $59.99) at Amazon, which is only $5.25 above its lowest-ever price at the retailer. The Hori Split Pad Pro exclusively works in handheld mode, fully replacing the Joy-Con on the side of the console.
It offers full-size grips that are really comfortable for those with larger hands, plus a mappable rear button on each side giving you a whole additional input. There’s also a turbo mode feature (that simulates the rapid pressing of a button of your choice) which I found really useful in the button-mashing minigames of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.
Big savings on the Hori Split Pad Pro
The Hori Split Pad Pro is a fantastic accessory for those who enjoy using their Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch OLED in handheld mode. You lose some features, such as NFC support, HD Rumble, and motion controls, but gain a huge level of extra comfort from its ergonomic design.
This is one of the most attractive discounts I’ve seen ahead of Amazon Prime Day later this month. If you would prefer to wait for the sales event, however, make sure that you consult our guide to the best Amazon Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals for a guide on how to prepare.
