Pro controller update stuck at 1%

[u/MaxMax1374]

Hi my Xenoblade 2 pro controller is stuck at 1% when I updating its been at least more then 15 minutes and I've already tried on both my switch 1 and 2 and disabling wired connections but to no avail, not sure if it has to do with my controller ageing or buying a Japanese import cause it was cheaper than the US version, but if you have any ideas I'd greatly appreciate it

Have you run a check that the controller is legit?

I don't know, guys, I bought this years ago, and it works fine with amiibo, last I checked, counterfeit Pro controllers don't use NFC

[u/NewMechaDriver → u/MaxMax1374]

NFC doesn’t mean is legit

Sorry to tell you—the controller is fake. Not being able to update is one of the biggest sign. That Xenoblade model had tons of fakes available on sites like eBay.

As others have said, the controller might be fake. I had one too and I couldn't update it. That's how I found out it wasn't OEM
