It's only $40 but this is my favorite Black Friday Nintendo Switch deal yet
The Hori Split Pad Pro is pretty much permanently fixed to my Nintendo Switch OLED these days, and with Best Buy dropping a $10 discount on the ergonomically minded Joy-Con alternative it's an absolute steal this week.
Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals have been particularly kind to this set of larger gamepads. We don't typically see discounts on the already much-cheaper-than-JoyCon Nintendo Switch controller day to day and even during this year's Prime Day offers things were still north of $40. I should know, I watch those numbers like a hawk whenever it's sales season.
However, you can pick up the Hori Split Pad Pro for just $39.99 at Best Buy today (was $49.99) - the cheapest I've seen the set for some time. Considering the full Joy-Con kit will still set you back $80 that's a fantastic price - whether you're battling stick drift or you simply don't get on with the smaller size of the official buttons.
It took 2023's Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals for me to finally be able to write about the Split Pad Pro again, and I'd seriously urge anyone who plays for a serious amount of time in handheld mode to give this option a go.

✅ You want a cheaper Joy-Con replacement
✅ You want a more comfortable grip
✅ You want more back button options
Don't buy it if:
❌ You value rumble and NFC
❌ You want wireless multiplayer options

I would heartily recommend the Hori Split Pad Pro to anyone who
