The NYXI Wizard acts as an alternative to Joy-Con controllers. You can attach them to your Switch just like Nintendo’s official controllers for handheld mode, or you can keep them connected together to have a chunky GameCube-style controller for docked play.

Beyond the familiar shape and input arrangement, the controller also comes with Hall Effect joysticks, which are far more durable and more resistant to drifting than the sticks on a typical Joy-Con. The ABXY face buttons feature customizable color effects that sync with your gaming actions, there are two programmable back buttons, and six-Axis gyroscope motion-sensing technology for games that require twists and turns. Pretty useful for Mario Kart 8!
