Snakebyte’s Gamepad RGB S2 is a third party wireless controller aimed at Switch 2 owners who want a spare pad without paying first party money. It sits in the same space as PowerA and other budget Pro style controllers, competing on feel and features rather than Nintendo branding. The RGB lighting is the headline, but the real appeal is having an extra controller for local multiplayer, travel, or as a backup when Joy Cons are charging.
Who is this for?
If you play docked most of the time and prefer a full size grip, a Pro style pad can be more comfortable for longer sessions than Joy Cons. It also makes sense for party games where you need more controllers to hand, or if you want something you can lend out without worrying about your main pad.
- Wireless play: keeps the sofa setup tidy and avoids cable drag during fast inputs.
- RGB lighting: useful for quick player identification in a busy living room.
