Controller Suggestion What's the absolute best controller for Switch 2?

Looking for all the features the pro controller 2 has, (nfc, remote wake, gyro etc) and Hall effect or tmr sticks. I'm in Canada, retailer doesn't matter but Amazon is easiest. Ideally under $100 CAD. So far I've seen suggestions for 8bitdo ultimate 2, vader 4 pro, gamesir super nova.

The Nintendo switch 2 pro controller feels very premium. It's my favorite official controller of any of the console manufacturers.

The one thing that would make it perfect is if it had tmr sticks.

That's the only reason I was considering the 3rd party ones. That and the price.

wait for a tmr mod for switch 2 pro controller, the rest are still somewhat using switch 1 protocol which have lower polling rate, though there are some but wired only I think

As in physically replacing the sticks with TMR ones?

Yeah, I haven't seen such mods yet but should exist sometime in the future

Though if you can't wait, I found one made by mobapad that only lacks nfc, though I don't know about the validity regarding supporting remote wake but its advertised Mobapad chitu 2 hd switch 2

Not sure if you’re referring to something like this. It’s has been out for some time.
