It still fits in this case, although it is a tighter fit than the Nintendo CPP. I want to get a grip, but if I decide down the road I want to play a game that takes advantage of the extra inputs, this is kind of two things in one. As with the Nintendo CPP, the stylus is inaccessible, but on the regular sized Hori pad it is now teasingly almost accessible.īuild quality feels similar between the two, which I expect from Hori products.
