    Definitely worth the money to get an extra controller if you have a family of four. One can function as two controllers for certain games (Mario party, donkey kong, Mario odyssey etc).

    Best controller for the Switch

    The Nintendo Joy Con controller is the best available controller for the Switch. It’s sturdy and responsive. The controller is split into right and left halves and can be used together for some games or 2 players can each use one half as a controller for multi player games. The only major drawback is the price of this Nintendo produced controller.

    Works great!! Just wish the buttons could stand up to a 4yr old. He has far too much fun with his games.

    Great product. Was a Christmas gift and the individual who received this as a gift was so excited. It was so easy to purchase this item and it arrived earlier than anticipated.

    Needed a new set and was tempted to purchase knock-offs from Amazon but decided not to. These have a totally different texture then my original ones and I love the colors!

    I purchased these Joy-Con wireless controllers as an extra set and to use for 4 player games. They were really easy to connect and begin using. It is really nice that the colors are opposite from the original set.

    These stylish new Joy-Cons make my Switch a bit more unique compared to my friends', and they work just as well as the ones that came with my Switch. Technically a little better since they're four years newer! My original Joy-Cons also work well and now we have just enough for the entire family to play when we get together for the holidays!

    I bought this because I love the Neon Green color and I wanted the right side JoyCon for my Switch. (The green left side JoyCon is only available in the Splatoon 2 bundle or imported from Asia/Europe) I like the innovative nature of the JoyCon (and Switch) but it still feels overpriced to me. If you have a Switch and need more JoyCon, try to catch them on sale because $80 is too much.
