8BitDo’s Ultimate 2 controller with anti-drift sticks now supports the Switch.

After launching the Ultimate 2 controller last February with TMR joysticks and support for Windows and Android devices, 8BitDo has released a new version compatible with the Switch.

The $69.99 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth controller, available in white or black, is functionally the same as the original (which also supported Bluetooth) but now plays nice with Nintendo’s portable console and features an alternate button label layout for Switch gamers.
