Nintendo already allows multiple ways for Switch games to be controlled. In handheld mode the Joy-Cons are used attached to the Switch. In tablet mode the Joy-Cons are used detached allowing for two-player gaming, and in docked mode you get the choice of the Pro Controller. But what about if you prefer PlayStation controllers?

Brook Design offers a range of controller converters for different systems including the Wii U. These Super Converters allow you to use your preferred controller with hardware it wasn't intended for. Now that hardware includes the Switch.

As Tiny Cartridge reports, Brook updated its PS3/PS4 to Wii U Super Converter to also support Switch. The converter looks like a big USB stick that gets plugged into the Switch dock. Then a PS3 or PS4 controller is plugged into the converter and it should be recognized as a legitimate input device. It doesn't require an original controller for verification and vibration feedback is supported.

As the Brook product page shows, there's full button compatibility available with only the PS4's Share button and PS3's Select button not being used. One word of warning, though: Nintendo doesn't like such converter workarounds and would rather you buy official accessories, so don't be surprised if it tries to stop the converter working with a future Switch update.

As for cost, the converter is $34.95, although stock is not yet available. If you like PS3 or PS4 pads it is surely going to be tempting to pick one up, especially when you consider the Pro Controller costs $70. And if you prefer Xbox pads, Brook does a similar converter for those on Wii U, which is also getting the Switch update.
