Actually yeah,

So look up

AMSWALL Game Controller Gamepad USB Wired Shoulders Buttons Ergonomic Design Joypad For Microsoft Xbox & Slim 360 PC Windows

you can pick one up for £17.59 just remember it is the same as a xbox controller but for the pc so it has a usb connector you see.

I have one does the job fine.

Prob the switch pro pad.

It must work with the PC somehow.

Check compatibility of the xbone s controller. I LOVE mine for PC gaming.

The switch pro controller does work on the PC, Steam even recognises it as the Switch Pro Controller

As far as I know, only way to get many non-Switch controllers (like XB1S pad) to work on Switch, requires modding the Switch software/homebrew and from what I hear, it's not great. Just go with the Switch Pro controller, it should work on your PC as long as you have a decent bluetooth connection on your PC, since that's how the Pro controller works.

Can also connect it to PC via USB-C cable

Great for charging, but considering the amazing battery life of the pro controller, one would be missing out big time on the great wireless capability of the pro controller. The controller does come with a USB-C cable though (since I bought one myself for the Switch).
