Unlike the official Joycon Controllers, PowerA and most third-party controllers do not have an NFC chip embedded, so they do not allow amiibo compatibility. Although they are a cheap alternative to controllers and still host a variety of adorable Animal Crossing designs, having NFC compatibility with a game like New Horizons is essential for anyone who wants to invite villagers to their island. So, it's something to consider if you are looking for an Animal Crossing controller yet don't want to rely on JoyCon.
