Wireless HORIPAD TURBO
Special Kirby & Waddle Dee Edition for Nintendo Switch™ 2
The pink puffball is back, and this time he’s bringing some serious tech to your gaming sessions! HORI has just unveiled the Wireless HORIPAD Turbo (Kirby & Waddle Dee Edition). While the livery is undeniably cute, featuring a purple translucent shell with Kirby and Waddle Dee, the specifications hidden in the Japanese text reveal that this is a professional-grade tool designed specifically for the next generation of gaming.
Next-Gen TMR Sensor Sticks
The most significant technical leap in this controller is the inclusion of TMR (Tunnel Magnetoresistance) Sensors for the analog sticks. Unlike traditional sticks that wear out and cause "stick drift," TMR sensors use non-contact magnetic technology. This ensures extreme precision, a longer lifespan, and virtually zero chance of drifting, making it a reliable choice for intense platformers or competitive play.
Power and Connectivity
Built for long sessions in Dream Land, this HORIPAD offers impressive wireless performance. It utilizes Bluetooth® 5.0 technology for a stable connection with a range of up to 10 meters. The internal battery provides approximately 10 hours of continuous play on a single 3-hour charge.

| Stick Tech | TMR Non-contact Magnetic Sensors |
| Turbo Function | 3-stage adjustable speed with Turbo Hold |
| Custom Buttons | Assignable Rear Buttons & Profile Storage (2 patterns) |

Advanced Customization
Don't let the cute artwork fool you; this controller is packed with "Pro" features. It includes assignable rear buttons that allow you to map complex inputs to the back of the controller. Furthermore, it features a Profile Function that allows you to save two different button mapping patterns, which can be swapped on the fly depending on the game you are playing. It also includes a Button Lock feature to prevent accidental presses during crucial moments.
"With TMR sensors and a beautiful Kirby aesthetic, HORI has created the perfect balance of legendary durability and whimsical design."
Conclusion
The Wireless HORIPAD Turbo Kirby & Waddle Dee Edition is a testament to HORI’s commitment to quality. By moving away from traditional potentiometers to TMR sensors, they are addressing the biggest concern of modern gamers while celebrating one of Nintendo's most beloved franchises. It’s a must-have for any Kirby fan looking to upgrade their setup for the Nintendo Switch™ 2.
