Adorable and comfortable for small or medium hands

I bought this because I fell in love with the design and the colors. I wondered whether it might be too small for comfortable use, and it is small as advertised, but my hands can cradle it pretty comfortable or hold it loosely with no discomfort. (I'm around 5'6" and I'd say above average hand size for a female.) If you have large hands it may not be as suitable.The cable is probably not as long as you'd find with other wired controllers but still suitable for living room use, but I primarily…

Pros
  • Paint, Wall Treatments & Supplies
Cons
  • The Horipad Mini does not have an integrated gyroscope, which is a key feature for certain types of games

Small, perfect for kids or petite gamers.

It is small! But that's why I got it! My 8 year needed a controller and I'm so glad we opted for this one. The design colors even match our animal crossing switch color palette. My daughter wanted one with a Pikachu, this was perfect. The cord is a decent length, the controller itself works well, no stick drift or sticky buttons. Highly recommend for small hands or kiddos in your household.

Pros
  • My son absolutely loved this remote controller. Works great.
Cons
  • The Pikachu and Eevee design may not be appealing to all gamers, limiting its overall appeal

VERY SMALL, but that shouldn't be a turn off.

I knew this controller was going to be small when I ordered it, but it was even smaller than I expected. The entire body of the controller sits neatly on top of my phone with plenty of room to spare and it's so light that it almost feels like you aren't holding anything at all. As someone with larger hands, it took a couple of days of play before I really got used to the form factor and the height of the sticks, but it never really hurt to hold or caused any cramping. It's actually a lot more…

Pros
  • Really cute and worth the money!
Cons
  • The design may wear off over time, reducing the aesthetic appeal of the controller

ehh It could be better

If you're looking for a cheap controller for your kid this might not be a bad way to go but I really wish HORI would have put a little more into the controller. The cord weights 2x more than what the controller itself weights and can't help but think how much better of a product it would have been if HORI would have just added a 1000mah battery and bluetooth adapter to it. The lack of weight makes the controller feel like a cheaper product than it actually is.

Pros
  • 1 A batteries required.
Cons
  • The Horipad Mini may not have the same responsiveness as other controllers on the market

No Regerts in my review

Y’all. this popped up on my Walmart and I just snap bought it. I loved everything about it, it was just the cutest controller I’ve ever seen and I’d been in the market for a controller for my switch, talk about TIMING right Walmart overlords?Side note: I didn’t read a thing about this before buying it. It was official Nintendo product, it was adorable, done. Take my money.LO AND BEHOLD when it arrives I open it and think "why is this controller so small? Did I buy it on wish?” Then my dumba**…

Pros
  • The small size is great for my hands. It fits comfortably and the design is beyond cute.
Cons
  • The Horipad Mini lacks motion control, depriving gamers of an immersive gaming experience

As promised best in my review

A mini pro controller with a cute design. Please note that it is NOT wireless and for switch lite users, it is usable when combined with another Hori product. Has been reliable for the past few months. Love it.

Pros
  • November 18, 2020
Cons
  • The color scheme may not match with other gaming accessories or consoles, reducing overall aesthetic appeal

Great for small hands!

I really like this controller, I have an issue with normal pro controllers sometimes since my hands are on the smaller size, this is just perfect for me and I’d recommend to anyone with small hands or children! Also it’s super cute too.

Pros
  • Great controller for my 6 year old when she plays her switch! Perfect size, easy to use and well made.
Cons
  • The Horipad Mini may not be comfortable for extended gaming sessions due to its small size

Cute and small good for me

Love it! The colors are very cute. It’s pretty small though, so it’s better for smaller hands, unless you’re okay with that (:

Pros
  • Awesome!
Cons
  • The lack of vibration feedback may make gaming feel less engaging and immersive

great fit in my hands

I love this controller! It's lightweight, comfortable in my hands, and great quality. I highly recommend this, it is a great shape and size!

Pros
  • NSW-279U
Cons
  • The controller does not have a headphone jack, which limits the usability for voice chat in multiplayer games
