Except that the PDP folks are the biggest name in blessed Switch controllers, making many of the officially licensed character controllers such as the Mario and Luigi branded ones. They were given access to the original GameCube controller molds and design files and created the better SSB controllers. The hierarchy is
Nintendo, PDP, hyperkin, 8bitdo, everyone else.
This is endemic to the PDP controllers.
If I want to turn off an Xbox One controller, I can pop the batteries or it'll turn off after it's not connected for 30 seconds. PDP wireless Switch controllers? 10 minutes later and they're still hunting for their paired console, often with no way to forcibly turn it off.
Even 8bitdo do in several iterations have Xbox style battery compartments and their fighter pad has a physical switch.
PDP can ship these cheap because they can have loss leaders in the low cost options, making up for the difference with their high end controllers and even their rather extensive selection of other console controllers. Ironically, their switch joycon charger dock is one of the best and some of their headsets are rivaling even the better Gamer ones now.
