Just bought this. Thank you for the info. They have not updated it yet as of toda
Glad I could help and thanks for the update.
is that a sticker logo? the purple one looks like its actually etched on.
@@flowstatenata i have the purple one and it is indeed etched on it in white-ish silver
I AM SOOOO GLAD I FOUND YOUR VIDEO! Just purchased today and was super disappointed that they don't even have the user guide for this specific controller on there.
This was the most helpful guide i have seen all week because i have not been able to find a way to make the back buttons work. Thanks man, honestly deserves a sub!
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
I just bought one & would have had no idea how to set this up without the manual lmao. Thank you for this!
Just picked this up, got the purple version (that’s all they had at the store) but your video helped tremendously. Thanks man!
I just recieved this controller for christmas and was confused when I couldnt figure out how to change the colors and there were no instructions. Thank you so much for this tutorial it really helped!
OMG SAME
i got the link one instead
Thanks a lot man! This video is super helpful and i was able to program this control to my needs! It also has a sick charging animation
I haven't even had to charge it yet. The stand by battery life is really good
This is really cool. Thanks for showing it off, it made my purchase decision a no brainer.
Thank you soooooo much man, I was trying to figure this out for months
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
just received this for Christmas.. ended up getting it stuck on just blue as the color and didn’t know how it happened, this helped as i was totally lost
I'm glad I saw this video because I was thinking about picking this controller up foreal.. Love the light show
Thanks! This really helped!!!
Life saver my brother thank you!
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
Yeah i had to figure it out myself as well but you did help me figure out how to change the lights. Thanks.
omg i just bought this its a wounderful controller!!!
I just picked this up from target due to clearance at $15, i like this controller thx for been a live manual to change colors.
That's a great price for this controller. I'm glad I could help. 👍🏻
Do they do that often ? Ima start going to target more lol
@@andresespinoza2559 oh man i forgot i placed a comment here about this controller and i guess i was just lucky i passed by and saw it on clearance.
Thanks it helped me out
Was finally able to program after watching this video. Thanks!!!!
Glad I could be of help.
Thank you so much!🥰
God send on the lighting instructions, thanks dude!
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
thanks so much! i finally figured out the lights! the instructions are hard to figure out on the thing you scan, but it is updated. thank you so much it was a big help! im loving this controller
What one is the right one to go into? Just got the controller today and couldn't find it on the scan thing
@@D1STRUCT1ON55 it’s in there but it’s easier to just watch this video
Huge help thank you
Love it!!!
Ty for your help
Bro honestly this vid was a life saver for me 😂👍🏻👍🏻
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
Exactly what I needed great video!
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
@redbandanagaming I need help trouble shooting an issue with this controller. I bought this controller yesterday same color and wireless on Super Mario 3D, on World 2-2 the section were you need to click on R button followed by tilting the remote to move the cursor to click on certain walls to pop them open to be able to climb them Can you try to see if same happens to you? Im only able to tilt the remote using the Joycon controllers. Im not sure if I need to set it up before been able use it for this level in the game all buttons work on the controller its just that part in the game were I can use the function to tilt the controller to move the cursor.
Thank you! ❤
Tell me please. Does it have a gyroscope or accelerometer and vibration?
Are you able to change the button mapping on this controller or does it show up as no able to change button layout?
It’s making some games very challenging.
Thanks for the info, as of today Nov 30, there is still no update on the instructions. Yours was the best info I found.
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
Got one of these for christmas, seems like a super quality controller. Thanks for the info :)
Does it turn on the switch from sleep mode? I'm tempted to get one
@@chr1s415 Unfortunately not, although it does stay linked after you turn it off and on. Very solid controller from what I've seen, though as I've just gotten it recently I can't say whether or not it'll hold up to the test of STICKDRIFT...
Thank you for this video!!!! It is difficult with no instruction 😂😂
Thank you so much ❤
Really amazing video! Thank you sooo much!! They still have not updated the instructions. 😫
Does this controller wake the Switch or do you have to wake it manually?
Got it, Yesterday and still no update with instructions. Thank you for the video!!
I got this controller yesterday and i really like
Thanks, appreciated
I agree, I don't like QR codes but the one on the box itself has all the up to date instructions but you have to download it. I appreciate the help.
It's Dec 30 right now and they still don't have it on the website
Love the colors
Hi ! I've got a question : can the controller itself turn the switch on/pull it out of standby mode with a certain button or do you have to turn it on yourself and then sinc the controller to start playing ?
Thank you so much for your video too, I plan on using the pairing tutorial if I do end up buying the controller :)
Hello. Did you ever get an answer to your question on if you can wake the Switch with this controller because I had the same question?
I’ve had this controller for months and i didn’t know how to change the color till know😅
Great video! Thanks for this!
It would be nice if there was an option to turn off the back buttons I keep accidentally pressing them during the game
Hold the function button and double tap the back button you want to disable.
Just gone mine. Paired but nothing I so will allow me to change the colors.
How to stop the color when I move the stick bro pls answer my question
Can one of you help me get these back buttons off... like there are no manuals for this controller and I don't want to break the clips. The ked lighting stopped working and the buttons on it stop registering to the switch. I here the clicking noise but no actions are happening. I just tried to take the back plate off and am stuck because the buttons are in the way. I just want to hit the reset button within the controller. Why are these so difficult
It’s been a month and the instructions still aren’t up. I’m glad I found your vid.
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
Thank you this video helped me because my controller was stuck on solid blue
Glad I could help. 👍🏻
Does it have gyro control? I tried to figure it out IF it does and I couldn't, plus I couldnt find anyrhing on PDPp's sight. 😭
One question, can the back buttons be disabled?
Hey!! Do you know if it’s possible to flip or bounce in Mario kart with this controller? 😩😭
Mine only glows on the right side. Anything I can do about that?
Awesomeness!! Thx for this vid. Really helpful. But please tell me where you got your Zelda knife??😊
😄Glad I could help.
But unfortunately, I can't tell you where I got the knife, because it was a Christmas gift from my wife.
@@RedBandanaGaming oh ok. No problem. She is the most wonderful wife for it!! And by the way..i am trying that color changing thing now on my controller.
Can anyone confirm if this fits in a pro controller docking/charging station. Thanks.
I do own two budget controllers, but I thought the additional flippers at the back can come in handy. So I bought the PDP controller in purple, but after playing for about 15 minutes it lost connection with the Switch and not long after the Switch froze and this never happened before. I will try to play with it today and if I still experience issues I will definitely return it. For EUR 60,00 it's not worth it certainly not if my budget controller of EUR 25,00 doesn't cause any issues...
hello. in your opinion, does the wireless afterglow have motion controls? i was trying to play mario kart and i cannot shake the controller to get the jump boosts. ALSO, no idea how to program the back buttons so that i can see behind in a race. any advice?
This did not have any motion controls. A lot of third party controllers don't have it.
I think I covered how to program the back buttons in the video. If not, you hold the program, press the back button you want programmed and then press the button you want programmed to it.
@@RedBandanaGaming thank you for the insight! definitely returning this piece as it does not have motion controls!
Randomly found out clicking the left joystick well holding the program button gives you a white light
the back paddles how do you assign the buttons
Still not updated
Tysm for your tutorial❤
“Here scan this arbitrary code that will take you to a page that doesn’t list your product”…🤣
Thanks for the vid, helped out big time. And as the pinned commenter said there’s no update.
You have to hold the blinking button and then one of the back buttons, you can hold the blinking button and press L or R on the controller, or you can do what he did.
I absolutely love this controller my joycon broke (drift) and I'm playing the re-released paper mario thousand year door (I played the original when it first came out way back when) and I didn't want to stop playing it so grabbed this for myself just because of the color changing bit
I have that same controller normally it glows a few different colors. And it is just glowing blue I have no idea why
I bought the wired one but not sure how to charge it
Thank for helping me set up my controller cus you're right it need better instructions
I saw it paired to the Switch fairly easily. Does it reconnect quickly and without hassle on subsequent uses? A lot of third party controllers take FOREVER to get detected by the Switch, and I find that annoying when handing people controllers for multiplayer games.
Mine connects instantly
Does this controller have turbo control
Ur a life saver, still no update on the website
I was going through pressing buttons. It went dark with leds, disconnected, now when I resync to the switch only the analog sticks work. All buttons and dpad are non responsive. Literally day 2 out the box.
I got mine today, the purple one and wireless, and they have not updated it yet.
I'm not surprised. I'm glad my video is still able to help people figure out how to use it.
have you tested the latency? how does it compare to the switch pro controller?
Hmmm no response?
Does it have a plastic feel?
How the heck do you make the other colors pulse
IDK if anyone has said it already but to program the back buttons you just have to hold the button and press the bottom triangle. once its flashing just select what button function you want it to match
Thx❤
How do the buttons feel
Mine doesnt have motion controls- is it broken?? I got it last weekend and just started using it so I dont know if it's really broken or not. Is it supposed to have motion controls??
No, it doesn't have motion controls. So don't worry, it isn't broken.
I just got this controller today and your video was so helpful😅😅😅thank you!
Edit to say. I picked this up in April 2024 and they have not changed it😢it was so confusing
I'm glad I could help.
Can someone please help me? When I’m playing this the color pulses no solid colors. And it’s not long before I have to charge it again.
I would think the pulsating color would be less of a drain on the battery. That’s odd.
I know it’s a new controller, but try conditioning the battery like you would a cellphone. Fully charge it then use it until it totally dies. Then charge it fully then one more time use it until it fully dies. Then fully charge it again. That will probably help. My question for you is did you fully charge it when you bought it? If not, that is your issue.
There is a drop down menu that pulls up the manual for it
There are full instructions, but you have to use the QR code on the back of the box, not the one on the included pamphlet.
My phone won’t register it as a QR code ‘cause it’s so small.
And I'm sure to buy through the PDP page, because I sent messages and it's been 3 days and no one responds on their page.
Bought mine a couple weeks ago.
How i can program the paddle?
I bought mine recently and it will not connect with my switch at all. Did i get a defective controller?
Yes could be, but the site says you have 2 year warranty
Had mine to 2 weeks and well well well stick drift and i can calibrate it either....
Great video. Do you know if we can sync it with AMIIBO?? I can’t figure it out 😞 thanks for you input
Unfortunately, it doesn't have NFC, so it isn't Amiibo compatible.
@@RedBandanaGaming oh F I’m new to all this. Lol. Oh well Thank you so much for your prompt reply!
Can I pair this with my iPad?
If you scan the code and go into the website, this is listed under the title of controllers as Afterglow Wave Wireless controller for Nintendo Switch.
Good to know that it's finally been updated. Thank you. 👍🏻
@@RedBandanaGaming You're welcome.
How do you reset it?
I have a question, I just bought this controller and when its charging the colorq turn red, so my question is how do i know when its fully charged ? Did it turn Green or somerhing ?
Mine is doing thr same is this normal?
@@nickeckman6704 yes it turns Green when its full
Can u do the wired one
Just got mine today! The "instructions" was annoying haha. The controller itself is nice and sleek though. Thank you for figuring it out because I was at a loss. The code doesnt even take you to a useful site
should i buy it? i am planning on using it for zelda botw and tot
I had this controller but i returned it because with the left stick the game wouldn't move forward
How do you turn this controller off?
Mine was stuck on blue thanks
On my white controller the rgb turns off automatically when not being used. On my purple controller it's always on and drains the battery faster. Do you know how to disable this? Thanks for the vid.
Unfortunately not. I haven't seen that issue before. My white one acts just as your white one does. I'm sorry I can't be of any further help with this particular issue.
@@RedBandanaGaming returned the purple ones back to Walmart and funny enough, the lady said I wasn't the first to return these. Bought the white ones and no issues! Thanks again!
Hey I was wondering if the controller has motion control. I was looking around online and I can’t find any answers
No it doesn't. I double checked before I answered you since it's been quite some time since I filmed this video. I just tested it with Cysis.
I’m trying to get back to the rgb and can’t
