HORI’s Real Arcade Pro V & Pro Controller alternative for Switch coming in July
Just before the Nintendo Switch presentation in January earlier this year a couple of HORI accesories for the Nintendo Switch were leaked. We hadn’t seem anymore from the company since then – until now.
The Real Arcade Pro V and their own branded Hori Pad will be coming to Japanese this stores this July. The arcade stick looks neat and to keep things cheap the Hori Pad is wired, is missing NFC, HD rumble and no Gyro. It’s an alternative to the Pro Controller for a lot of games, but for others you’ll need those features.
The arcade stick isn’t cheap coming in at nearly $200AUD, the Pad is about $40AUD which is a lot cheaper than Nintendo’s Pro Controller.

Assuming the gamepad needs to be plugged in to the console, what is the cable length?
