The only Nintendo Switch controller I'd play Super Smash Bros. with got a big Cyber Monday discount

I've played a lot of of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in my life and have come away with some profound conclusions.

Among them: Kirby is underrated, items suck, and lastly, you cannot and should not play Super Smash with Joy-Cons.

Don't get me wrong, I love Joy-Cons in theory — they're a playful but of Nintendo ingenuity that neither Sony nor Microsoft has dared replicate — but they just can't endure the button-pushing punishment that games like Super Smash require.

Luckily, Nintendo makes a Pro controller for those high-stress moments and it's also on sale after Cyber Monday. New HSN customers can get the Switch Pro controller for $49 ($10 off) at HSN with coupon, "HOLIDAY24" at checkout

If you feel like your Super Smash Bros. game needs an upgrade, now is the perfect time to make an investment.

New HSN customers can take $10 off the Nintendo Switch Pro controller with coupon, "HOLIDAY24" at checkout.

Nintendo's Pro Switch controller takes on a more traditional format compared to the Joy-Cons.

In my experience, the Pro controller is much more comfortable and durable which makes it ideal for high-impact games like Super Smash Bros.

Better yet, you can get it for $10 off opposed to the usual $70 if you buy from Walmart right now. If you've got a Super Smash reputation to uphold, this is the only controller you want.
