Amazon Prime Day 2026 is officially here, running from June 23 through June 26, giving shoppers a solid window to grab their tech and gaming upgrades at a discount.
Among the categories seeing the biggest price cuts this year are gaming controllers, with several well-known brands marking down their most popular models.
8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller
The 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller is built for Windows, Mac, Steam, and Android, featuring TMR joysticks, switchable Hall Effect or tactile triggers, motion control, an RGB fire ring, and a 1000Hz polling rate. It has earned a reputation as one of 8BitDo's most well-rounded controllers, offering premium features typically found on far more expensive pads, including additional remappable bumper buttons that give players more flexibility when customizing their inputs.
The controller also pairs with 8BitDo's Ultimate Software, which allows for deep button remapping, macro creation, and saved profiles across multiple devices.
Normally priced at $59.99, the controller is currently discounted to $47.59 for Prime Day, which works out to roughly a 21 percent discount. The only color option under the Prime Day deal is Black, but other colorways, including Purple and the WUCHANG: Fallen Feather-designed one, also feature their own discounts.
The controller has consistently ranked among the better mid-range options for players who want premium features without paying for top-tier pricing.
Razer Raiju V3 Pro Wireless Esports Controller
Built specifically with competitive players in mind, the Razer Raiju V3 Pro Wireless Esports Controller is officially licensed for PlayStation 5 and PC. It comes with six fully remappable controls, including four removable back buttons and two claw grip bumpers, along with symmetrical TMR magnetic thumbsticks designed to resist drift over time.
The controller also features Razer's HyperTriggers, letting players switch between instant mouse click actuation and full analog control depending on the game, whether that means faster trigger pulls in shooters or finer control in racing titles.
Razer designed the controller alongside professional esports players, and it includes swappable thumbstick caps for fine-tuning grip and height preferences. Battery life sits at up to 36 hours per charge in wireless mode, giving players plenty of runway during long sessions or tournaments.
Razer's official account on Amazon offers it with a 35-percent discount, now at $144.00 for the White option, and a 33-percent discount at $147.24 for the Black colorway (both originally priced at $219.99).
HORI Nintendo Switch Wireless HORIPAD
The HORI Nintendo Switch Wireless HORIPAD is officially licensed by Nintendo and works across Switch consoles, including compatibility with Switch 2. It runs on a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery offering over 15 hours of playtime per charge, paired with Bluetooth wireless connectivity that covers a 32-foot range, giving players plenty of freedom to move away from the TV without losing signal.
Motion control comes built in thanks to its accelerometer and gyroscope, making it a solid all-around option for anyone needing a reliable extra controller for local multiplayer sessions.
The HORIPAD wireless controller's Teal color option is available for only $27.89 from its original price of $39.99 (30 percent discount).
8Bitdo Arcade Stick
Designed for fighting game fans, the 8Bitdo Arcade Stick supports Switch and Switch 2 consoles along with Windows PC, connecting through Bluetooth, a 2.4G receiver, or a wired USB-C cable. The stick supports a universal mounting plate compatible with Sanwa arcade parts, giving players room to customize further down the line if they want to swap in their own joystick or buttons.
Its dynamic button layout also changes visually and functionally depending on which mode it is set to, switching between Switch and PC inputs seamlessly.
Normally priced around $90, the Switch and PC versions are currently marked down to $63.64 for Prime Day, putting the discount at 29 percent off their original price.
