Right now is an excellent opportunity for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 owners to pick up officially licensed wireless controllers at a fraction of their usual cost. Amazon is currently running a limited-time promotion on a wide selection of PowerA wireless controllers, with several themed around The Legend of Zelda seeing particularly deep discounts. These special offers appear to be tied to the recent launch of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment on the Switch 2.
Fans of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have four distinct PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller designs to choose from. The vibrant Kingdom of Hyrule model is available for just $30.40, a significant drop from its original $70 price tag. For those who prefer a more classic aesthetic, the Gold Rider controller is on sale for $37.51. If your budget is tight and you don’t mind forgoing motion controls and using AA batteries, the Sworn Protector design offers a subdued look for an incredibly low $25, down from $45.
These Zelda-themed controllers are all marked as limited-time deals, though Amazon has not specified an end date for the promotion. Each one is fully licensed by Nintendo and connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to both the original Switch and the new Switch 2. Another option for Zelda enthusiasts is the green Horipad Pro Wireless Controller, which features Link’s character design from Twilight Princess and is also discounted.
The savings extend well beyond the land of Hyrule. Amazon has slashed prices on numerous other PowerA controllers based on popular franchises. You can grab the Pikachu Retro design for $39.58 (was $70), the red Super Mario Joy edition for $30 (was $50), or a Fortnite design featuring Cuddle Team Leader for a mere $23, originally $50.
While PowerA is the leading licensed manufacturer for these accessories, the sale also includes controllers from other brands like PDP and Turtle Beach. Highlights include a glow-in-the-dark Super Mario Boo-Hoo Ghost controller from PDP for $40 and the Sonic Superstars RealMz model, which features a transparent shell with an internal 3D diorama, for $38.44.
With first-party Nintendo Pro Controllers now priced between $80 and $90, finding affordable wireless options for additional players has become more challenging. This sale provides a perfect solution for building a collection of budget-friendly gamepads. The gallery below starts with the Zelda controllers but also includes a variety of Super Mario and Pokemon designs.
Every controller listed is fully compatible with both Switch and Switch 2 consoles, and most are discounted by $20 or more. Near the bottom of the gallery, you’ll find the newer PowerA Advantage Wireless Controllers. Designed specifically for the Switch 2 but still working with the original Switch, these controllers feature a C Button for GameChat and advanced Hall Effect joysticks. Having just launched on October 30th, even their smaller $5 discount is noteworthy. A retro-inspired Super Mario wired controller from the same series is also on sale for $28.65.
For gamers who prioritize customization and desire back buttons, the 8BitDo Ultimate and Pro series are highly recommended alternatives. New iterations of both were released this year. The 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controller is currently $60, while the 8BitDo Pro 3 Gamepad, which boasts aligned thumbsticks and GameCube-inspired colors, is available for $63.
