    Hi. Where's a good place to buy a Wii U Pro Controller? Only place I've seen one is Argos but it's like €60 which is a bit much.

    I'd try cex or adverts.

    I'll probably be selling mine soon enough, can't imagine I'm the only wiiu owner doing it.

    I'd a look on adverts but didn't see any I'm afraid.

    Same boat, haven't had any luck in finding any cheaper than 50 euro. Nobody on adverts seems to be selling any and even then if they have them, I've found they're usually part of a "bundle only" sale.

    Hoping it's Switch compatible

    It's not, or at least not at launch. There's talk about patching in support for other controllers sometime in the future but that could be nothing or it could be WiiMotes (which are more common in the wild) or the Gamecube adapter (with all the sweet analogue triggering goodness it brings)

    Would €40 be too much?

    I bought an unofficial one on aliexpress for €16 or so. Looks and feels quality. If it had the wiiu markings on it you'd be hard pressed to tell it apart from an official one.

    It's a grey area tbh. I got the one pro controller I have (need two more for Mario Kart) brand new for 30 euro and I'm sickened I didn't get any more at the time.
