When it comes to playing the Nintendo Switch in docked mode, the Pro Controller has remained the gamepad of choice for many years. That s not surprising given its traditional design, rechargeable internal battery, motion controls, amiibo functionality, and hefty feel. Many third-party Nintendo Switch controllers have tried to unseat the Pro Controller, and while they ve brought their own flair to the table, they ve been unable to do so.
Now, PowerA has released the Fusion Pro Wireless Controller complete with mappable back buttons, rubberized grips, and swappable faceplates. It even has a headphone jack, which the Pro Controller does not have. So how does this new controller match up to the Pro Controller? It doesn t have as many features as you d expect given the high price point.

The PowerA Fusion Pro wireless controller is easily one of the best DualShock 4 alternatives we’ve laid our hands on. A chunky yet ergonomic design elevated by some clever advanced features, it packs in everything you’d want from a competitive grade gamepad. It’s just a shame that the Fusion Pro has arrived so late to the party with PlayStation gamers rapidly adopting the PS5.
Give this controller a quick glance and there’s one notable highlight you’ll see before getting down to the nitty gritty. It’s impossible to ignore the four rear-mounted back paddles, but there’s a few other layers to the Fusion Pro to appreciate.
