Nintendo Pro Controller on PC

Has anyone tried this? I heard Steam has tools to make it a good experience. Im looking to use this with various titles. Some include Elite Dangerous, GTA 5, and others. If any one could maybe suggest a good layout for Elite Dangerous that would be nice. As I tried looking at HOTAS's but they are either more than I want to spend, or out of stock. Plus I dont know if I want to buy a peripheral  that is only used for one game.

My question is like, why not just go DualShock? Do you already have a Switch?

I have.

It's not easy to pair (though it might be my 10-year-old USB dongle) but once you get it working, it's great.

I was hoping to use it wired. Because it was specifically stated that doing it Bluetooth is a pain.

I haven't gotten it to work on wired, sadly - nothing on a 2.0, 3.2 Gen 1, or 3.2 Gen 2 port.

I don't have any USB-C ports though so it could be that.

Good news with a help of my buddy I was able to get everything work. As well as a small amount of cash and an Advanced Nav computer for my ship.
