The Legend of Zelda fans can rating a fairly sweet deal on a wireless Nintendo Switch controller themed around the long-lasting action-adventure series. As a part of Amazon’s Black Friday Sale, PowerA’s Legend of Zelda: Sworn Protector Bluetooth Controller is discounted to only $25, which is the very best price yet for the $45 controller.
$25 (was $45)
Officially licensed by Nintendo, the Sworn Protector controller design is themed around Link’s best-known weapons. The Hylian Shield and Master Sword from Ocarina of Time are emblazoned on the left grip. The off-white base color is accented by blue face buttons and triggers that match Link’s shield. The red Hylian Crest in the middle of the controller is a pleasant touch.
As for its technical features, the controller has two back buttons that might be remapped on the fly, which is a pleasant perk, especially on this price range. Because it connects via Bluetooth, it’s also possible to apply it to PC and mobile devices. The controller does have an unusual quirk, though: It’s powered by AA batteries. Your first pair is included, and you must get roughly 30 hours of playtime before you have to swap them out. Plus, you would at all times go for rechargeable batteries, comparable to this Energizer kit with 4 batteries included for under $15 (50% off).
Third-party Switch controllers haven’t got NFC readers for Amiibo or HD rumble–this controller lacks rumble altogether. And while some PowerA Switch controllers have motion controls, this one doesn’t.
In case you want all of those features, you’ll have to go for Nintendo’s Switch Pro Controller, which is on sale for $50 at multiple major retailers as a part of Nintendo’s official Black Friday deals. The Pro Controller is nearly never discounted from its $70 price, so this best-ever deal is value considering, too. You can too grab a pair of Neon Red and Blue Joy-Con Controllers for $60, down from $80.

The Legend of Zelda fans can even save on a wide range of cool T-Shirts, hoodies, hats, and choose collectibles. Considered one of the standout deals is nearly sold out: the Collector’s Edition Hylian Shield statue from First 4 Figures. This 11.5-inch replica statue is fabricated from PVC and comes with a magnetic display stand equipped with LED lights. This statue originally sold for $110, but you may add it to your display shelf for under $47.
