PowerA Kirby Controller for the Switch Arrives August 6th - Pre-Order Now

Nintendo's adorable, power-absorbing puffball, Kirby, has made a quirky leap into the world of gaming accessories. The famed character is known for consuming opponents and objects to gain their powers, and it seems he has now taken a bite out of a Nintendo Switch controller.

Of course, we're talking metaphorically! This amusing concept is the inspiration behind the design of the new PowerA Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch (Kirby Edition), set to release on August 6th but pre-orders are available today, through our link below.

Kirby PowerA Nintendo Switch Features

The controller presents a whimsical blend of functionality and design, emulating Kirby's charismatic appeal. Its crowning glory is Kirby's tiny, slightly abashed face in the center, evidently regretting the fact that he's 'consumed' your brand new Switch controller. The bubblegum pink shade of the controller further nails the look, transporting fans straight into Kirby's colourful universe.

Preorders are already available on Amazon for this controller, offering a delightful option for fans who crave an alternative to the standard Switch Pro Controller. The PowerA variant comes with the convenience of Bluetooth wireless support, two mappable back buttons, and up to 30 hours of battery life. It also promises an ergonomic design to ensure comfortable gaming sessions.

Licensed officially by Nintendo, like all PowerA products, this controller guarantees a quality experience and compatibility with your Switch console. For added assurance, it also comes with PowerA's two-year limited warranty. Priced at a reasonable $45, the controller offers an attractive blend of functionality and fandom.

Controller Drawbacks

However, there are a few notable trade-offs. The controller does not support HD rumble, motion controls, an IR camera, or Amiibo functionality. But given its unique Kirby-inspired design and the added feature of programmable back buttons, these omissions might be deemed an acceptable sacrifice.

Conclusion

Despite the missing features, the PowerA Wireless Controller (Kirby Edition) could be in high demand. So, it's worth placing your preorders promptly if you’re drawn to the novelty of this cute Kirby-themed controller.
