The Hori Split Pad Pro is one of our favorite ways to play Switch in handheld mode, offering ergonomic grips, responsive buttons, a conventional D-pad, and full-sized analog sticks for added comfort. The Joy-Con replacement recently received a makeover to celebrate The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and right now you can snag the gorgeous officially licensed controller for just $50 (down from $60). That’s its lowest price ever, so consider giving it a look if you’re searching for a last-minute holiday gift, as Amazon is advertising orders will arrive before Christmas.

$50 (was $60)
The Split Pad Pro works with both the Switch and Switch OLED. It’s essentially a full-sized controller, split into two, that slides onto both sides of the Switch screen, providing a larger grip than the tiny Joy-Cons, making it a great option for adult gamers or anyone with big hands. It also benefits from turbo functionality and programmable rear buttons.
Of course, this version features a sleek Tears of the Kingdom paint job, with Link perched high up on a Sky Island on the right side of the controller and the left side featuring a sleek black and gold design with Zelda iconography emblazed throughout.
