All you fans of the pink puff might want to set aside some coin because PowerA is launching a brand new Kirby controller on 8th August.
This wireless controller, designed for use with the Nintendo Switch, will be available for $45 USD (or regional equivalent) and comes with all the usual features including wireless, advanced gaming buttons (including two mappable ones) and is AA Battery powered. Unfortunately, it does not support HD rumble, IR camera, motion control or amiibo NFC.

I could just be unlucky but I've had three controllers from this company and all 3 got drift in under 10 hours of playtime
@HeeHo I have the switch nano enhanced (it's like a miniature pro for kid hands) and it has been a pretty decent controller.
Pretty sure the pink site layout under Kirby topics is new. I dig it.
I'm finding the way the mouth is set between those buttons and over that teeny hole (presumably it has an LED below and just indicates whether it's on/connected) disproportionately discomforting.
@HeeHo Not just you. These controllers are terrible quality.
@Not_Soos No it's not, it has been at least since Kirby and the Forgotten land. But it's cool nonetheless.
But this controller, I'm not really feeling it.
Should have aligned the + and - buttons with his rosy cheeks.
No HD rumble or motion - waste of money.
Nintendo shouldn't license this crap that doesn't have all the basic features.
I love the design, but having no motion control makes it completely useless in my eyes
My Pro Controllers:
I'm not bothered about rumble or motion, but can it be used to turn the console on and off like the pro controller?
These wireless PowerA controllers are the only ones I use...they do have motion control, and you can turn on the console (and the tv at the same time the way I have it set up!) with them. The lack of rumble is just something I live with, but they feel great and I do enjoy the variety of faces.
I'm not sure why it says no motion control, maybe they've gotten rid of that? My Mario versions have it.....
@shake_zula I have the Animal Crossing controller from these guys and it allows me to turn the console on and off with the home button. So it should.
Controller Mouth Kirby, eh?
I don't know what's worse - Kirby's skin forming a function-tight membrane around all those sticks, buttons, screw holes and battery cover, or Kirby's skin having cutouts in it so all those things can work.
