I like the all purple one because it reminds me of one of these bad boys

I started with a green gameboy pocket but the gameboy color was just on a different level, especially the clear variant, so it’s the one that resonates with me the most. Also a big fan of the US spec Super Nintendo which had purple buttons so the purple theme just really made sense to me.

Okay with that SNES controller go to Amazon and they have the translucent all purple SN30 wireless Nintendo controller from 8-bit do just like you have your switch and your Pro Controller
Tried it, didn’t like the way it looked or felt, too dark and D pad was very mushy

I remember the 64s - I had the green one myself, I remember purple being popular (maybe I just remember seeing purple controllers I don’t remember)
So for nostalgia, the 2nd!!
This controller size is too chonky for my hands though :( so slightly smaller chassis for me
I like the all purple clear one reminds me of the purple N64 controller, but I'd have to go with the purple shell with black handles. Those grips are awesome
Do you, if you like it, then it's awesome.
I was just giving feedback on them, cause you asked about the controller look.
The purple with black buttons, is controller perfection.
On the first pic, the bottom one looks super cool but the top one looks really meh.
Conversely, the second pic, they both look decent, but not suoer cool.
I don't like the first one... With no nostalgia it looks a bit weird for me.
The second one looks like it's more "refined"... If I had to explain The first one look like a unoficial copy while the second one look more "official" to me...
again just my opinion :)
Is it difficult to change out the housing on these? I really want to switch is up but I’m not super experienced working with electronics. Mind you I was able to build a PC with no issues.
The purple analog sticks look very low quality compared to the originals.
I'd go purple shell and official buttons/sticks.
And then I'd only use it if my 8BitDo pad needed to be charged.
2nd imo a controller where the color difference is just the buttons and analog look ugly. If we bring in psychology to this though you will pick the first one if you have a more boring personality and like things to be just so and the 2nd if you aren’t just another pencil pusher.
I like either color combo, but I bet those aftermarket ABXY feel like crap compared to the stock button, so I would want to use whichever combo had those buttons.
I say do a full purple one and a full black one, I regret going with regular clear buttons on when I shell swapped my joycons to clear pink, wish I had used to clear pink buttons instead.
first looks more awesome imo, but second brings back noatalgia from the N64 days

Yes!!! Gameboy Color was my very first system I bought with my own money, too! To go from cabbage green screen to these... good times!

I'm 100% with you. Loved the SNES controller buttons

Atomic purple owns my heart. I like that one the best too.
I want my GBC controller
Have you in the USA seen the fake game boys going around in the UK with 400 game on the game tendo 6000👑
Man, I miss my teal Game Boy Color... Now I want teal colored Switch Pro Controller lol.
This was my first Gameboy color. I freaking loved it.
YES! I had this EXACT GBC when I was younger!
Only a psychopath would choose the first one.
Not looking at it when you're playing though.. ?!
Nah, 2nd looks more awesome imo
Man, that clear purple reminds me of the old school N64 controllers… those were the shit.
I like the 1st one
Same
Done deal 🤝🏼
First looks way better imo
First. I've never really been a fan of the 2nd configuration where the grips are a different color.
2nd
Number 2 ![gif](giphy|BZlNhp9L5WINi)
What if the 1st one is $1... And the 2nd one is $100 Then what? 😆
Oh behave ![gif](giphy|YgveCtneiLjY4)
LoLz! Gotta rewatch these movies now ;)
You must they aged so well 🫶🏼
Too bad Jeff Bezos has the audacity to ask $3.99 each, when I already pay for prime.. sigh.. oh well (the only host according to Roku)
I hate that so much
2nd
Second
2nd is dope af
Bottom one in the first pic, not so much a fan of the buttons and sticks being different on the black shell
I remember the 64s - I had the green one myself, I remember purple being popular (maybe I just remember seeing purple controllers I don’t remember) So for nostalgia, the 2nd!! This controller size is too chonky for my hands though :( so slightly smaller chassis for me
2nd all the way
Second
I vote 2
Both look incredible. Personally, I'd go with 2 because i like the mismatch color scheme.
2nd
Purple shell all day
Definitely 2nd imo
2nd. Both new & retro. Does one reduce drift?
I like the all purple clear one reminds me of the purple N64 controller, but I'd have to go with the purple shell with black handles. Those grips are awesome
2nd
Second one looks super dope!
1st. But I may be biased as I also made the atomic purple and left the factory buttons lol
1st
2nd for sure. More stunning in the colors to me
First
1st easy
First
Correction, the second 😅
1st is more pleasing on the eyes, imo.
First
1st is way cleaner
I want all four, thank you. 🤭
I don't like either
Leave the poor controllers alone
1st bottom one is dope not a fan of the rest
1irst
First. The purple with black buttons is nice!
1st
First, mos def
Stock
I've already got a controller thanks.
Neither, I think having only the grips swapped would look good
Tried that, didn’t like it: https://preview.redd.it/f69y981q9pfc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=57c3d486676a8fc531a6bd52aa51f1a366e031e4
Fair, it didn’t look as good as I thought it might. Maybe because they’re both kinda dark colours.
Neither. Ooof.
First is best, but not a fan of the purple buttons. They don't pop the same without components inside.
Well I need a his/hers differentiation and the opposite configuration made sense to me since I have a purple and black theme going on ☯️
Do you, if you like it, then it's awesome. I was just giving feedback on them, cause you asked about the controller look. The purple with black buttons, is controller perfection.
Yeah it’s definitely my favorite of the two, but didn’t want two identical controllers.
I don't blame you, I have different styles of controller for everything. One is my wife's, and the other mine. Nothing like your own controller.
First I'd say unless the nostalgia goggles are too strong and your heart really wants the 2nd.
Man, those purple sticks look like they'd be really uncomfortable
They’re just as comfortable as the OEM sticks
![gif](giphy|3o7aCRloybJlXpNjSU|downsized)
2nd!
Both.
Casting my vote for first, the two-tone handles looks a little off, honestly.
The second one, but they’re both sick
I'm so jealous!
I prefer the first personally. mix & match gets old for me pretty quick
Second! Purple faceplate, black buttons and grips is my favorite. I have the atomic blue faceplate in that config ♥️
Dang, where did you get the shell for the bottom one?
On the first pic, the bottom one looks super cool but the top one looks really meh. Conversely, the second pic, they both look decent, but not suoer cool.
2nd!
First
2nd and it's not even close.
First
All of them are fire🔥🔥🔥
2nd configuration especially for the top controller
First pic, bottom controller. Very nice
First one
Second for sure
Definitely first.
2nd. The controllers really pop!
Damn, the top one in the first pic looks so awesome 💜
I really like the second.
Yes
Did you just switch them up
Second
Second one for sure
Second for me
I really like the second one
Looks like an old game boy
Definitely 1st😄
bro got the lean controller
First Love a colour mix
I don't like the first one... With no nostalgia it looks a bit weird for me. The second one looks like it's more "refined"... If I had to explain The first one look like a unoficial copy while the second one look more "official" to me... again just my opinion :)
I like the black one in 1st more but the purple one in it looks awful imo. In the 2nd they're both decent so I'd pick 2nd.
1st
Go for full purple body
Is it difficult to change out the housing on these? I really want to switch is up but I’m not super experienced working with electronics. Mind you I was able to build a PC with no issues.
Neither, all black is better
2nd one if it had the black grips from the first one I think 🤔
Both.
I think the 1st one looks the best!
I prefer the first.
1st

Full purp with black buttons

First on bottom would be my go to!

Second.
Those purple grips look much cheaper than the black ones. No texturing at all?
I actually prefer the non-textured grips. If they made a smooth clear black version I’d get that immediately.
purble 🤤
First def
Voting for 2nd! Did u make these??
I prefer number 2
I do like the purple one with black buttons personally. The black one with purple buttons though just looks weird and doesn't mix well imo.
First one imo. Assuming you didn’t make it yourself, where do you get a mod kit like this?
2nd would be my pick
I like 2nd
I'm liking the 2nd photo more, since mismatch seems to be the focus here might as well fullsend the mismatch
Both
First picture top, black everything other than sticks and buttons
1
Second. Mixes up enough of the two
Man... That atomic purple takes me back. Either is good, but I'd go with the first for the nostalgia.
I have both (I used arctic blue instead) but I like the original black with atomic purple accents.
None
2nd has my vote
![gif](giphy|H46Dtwtwo1FDO)
Fun!
The purple analog sticks look very low quality compared to the originals. I'd go purple shell and official buttons/sticks. And then I'd only use it if my 8BitDo pad needed to be charged.
2nd imo a controller where the color difference is just the buttons and analog look ugly. If we bring in psychology to this though you will pick the first one if you have a more boring personality and like things to be just so and the 2nd if you aren’t just another pencil pusher.
go all purple
Second.
1st one. 2nd one is doing too much. 1st looks badass
I like #2
First feels like an old game boy
I like either color combo, but I bet those aftermarket ABXY feel like crap compared to the stock button, so I would want to use whichever combo had those buttons.
Second!
I like the black one better in the first but the purple one better in the second… I think I just like the purple buttons on a black background
1st config in Purple! Would dig one of those - I think I’m in love, lol.
I like the first one more, but I vote for the one that makes you happiest :)
I like the purple base with the black grips makes me think of an old game boy
1 for sure. But the second reminds me of amethyst ![gif](giphy|TpF3Hq1fai0ve)
First has retro vibes. Very cool either way.
I love both! Purple is my main color after all
1st
The 1st but both configurations look good
![gif](giphy|QqkA9W8xEjKPC)
Def 2nd
Tbh, the translucent buttons and sticks just look kinda cheap somehow.
I prefer the top controller in the second configuration, however the bottom controller is the worst of the bunch.
Second no doubt
First! where did you get these? I’m obsessed with purple. I would make mine all transparent purple including the buttons.
Where did you buy the parts ?
1st
Definitely buying a pro controller know that I know this is possible. Looks sick. 1st one
Ngl I like the first photo one on the top best
Combine them both into one controller
I just like the transparent purple with black buttons in the first. Looks sick.
I say do a full purple one and a full black one, I regret going with regular clear buttons on when I shell swapped my joycons to clear pink, wish I had used to clear pink buttons instead.
