Purchased in April 2024 and used primarily for Smash Bros. for about a year and a half! The stick has been replaced with an octagonal gate shell. It's been used quite a bit, so there are some scratches, but it doesn't affect gameplay. *Please note that it does not have a vibration motor and is not the latest 3.2 model! (There are some differences in details such as HD vibration support and improved stick sensors.) However, it might not matter much to those who turn off vibration. In fact, I never felt any dissatisfaction during the year and a half I used it. This is a specialized product, so please research it thoroughly before purchasing! *It can also be used with Switch 2!
