How the OG pro controller works on Switch 2?

I'm planning on buying the Pro, but it's crazy expensive in Brasil because they are all imported (talking about 120~130 USD)

Switch 1 pro controller I can get for 60 USD, given or taken

I think it works great, but then again, I’ve never used any controllers outside of Nintendo and PlayStation 1st party OEM. What questions do you have?

// Triggers are digital, not analogue. In some ways, this is a major upgrade over PS5 (less time between input and in-game response), in other ways it’s a step back (there’s not much more satisfying that, e.g., getting that subtle feedback of shooting a bow).

// Rumble tech is insane! They somehow manage to replicate audio from a speaker just from rumble alone.

// There’s a headphone jack.

// There aren’t any distracting lights on the controller.

// You’ve got a GL/GR button with custom mapping from the Quick Access Menu (hold down HOME button while playing any game).

// The D-Pad is about as…erm…not good as it was on NS1.

// Feels 10x more comfortable in the hands compared to the NS1 Pro.

I speak as somebody who wasn’t a fan of the NS1 Pro but has exclusively used the NS2 Pro so far.
