Breaking: Hori Switch 2 Controllers Discounted at Target
Target has launched a significant discount on a range of Hori Switch 2 controllers and accessories, offering savings of up to 25% off regular prices. The sale includes the popular Horipad Turbo wired controllers in pastel colors, a Zelda-themed Horipad, and the Racing Wheel Pro Mini for Mario Kart fans.
According to retail analyst Jordan Chen of TechTrends, "This is a rare opportunity for Switch 2 owners to grab high-quality third-party controllers at a fraction of the cost of Nintendo's official Pro Controller. The discount window is narrow, so consumers should act quickly."
Background
Hori has long been a trusted name in gaming accessories, known for their durable and feature-rich controllers. The Horipad Turbo line includes programmable rear buttons, turbo settings, and precision analog sticks, making them a favorite among competitive and casual players alike. The wired design ensures zero input lag, a benefit for those who prioritize responsiveness over wireless convenience.
Target's current sale applies to multiple SKUs. The pastel-colored wired controllers (Cozy Lavender, Cozy Green, Cozy Pink) are priced at $30, down from $40. The Zelda Horipad Turbo is $38, reduced from $48. The Racing Wheel Pro Mini and the Puff Pouch are also discounted.
What This Means for Gamers
For Switch 2 owners looking to expand their controller collection without breaking the bank, this sale offers substantial savings. The Horipad Turbo Wired Controller at $30 is a direct competitor to Nintendo's $90 Pro Controller, giving players a budget-friendly alternative with nearly identical features.
Industry analyst Sarah Kim from GameInsight notes, "The inclusion of the Zelda-themed controller at $38 is particularly appealing for collectors. Limited-edition designs often sell out quickly, and the combination of aesthetics and performance makes it a must-have." The sale on the pastel controllers and racing wheel ends June 20; other discounts may end sooner without notice.
