Excellent news.

Though, imo I have been using the only one I purchased for 7 years now. I think I'm ready for the new version of it.

Especially, if it has better control sticks(Hall Effect?) and a better D-Pad.

Yeah I'm getting the new one too, as part of that feeling of a new console for me is having an all new controller to play with.

Still though, this is welcome news.

People who bought 2 or 3 more Pro controllers sure do feel vindicated by this haha.

Returns of the hands-on made it seem like the new Pro controllers is at least just as intuitive as the first controller in hands. 

Also can't underestimate the power of the GL-GR buttons now (Hellooo to switching my arts easily in Xenoblade X now).
