    We're a family of four and were absolutely going to need another set of JoyCons to get our Mario Kart battles going. Work great, paired fast, great battery life and I love how easy Nintendo has made it to mix and match the Cons. We got the Switch with gray thinking the kids would just fight over the colors, but once we decided we needed more, got the Blue/Red pack and everybody swaps colors all the time. Nintendo nailed the gesture control too in Mario Odyssey; love playing with a controller in each hand. More comfortable that way for me.

    Connection is reliable, controls feel precise, and compatibility across a wide range of games is seamless. Whether playing docked, handheld, or tabletop mode, Nintendo Switch controllers provide a smooth and enjoyable experience.

    My son loved the switch !! The remotes were a great buy because his old joy cons stop working. I got these so they will last longer. There are no complaints over here. I made my child happy.

    These are replacement controllers for a two year old system. I thought these controllers were nearly indestructable, but my grandson proved me wrong with the originals. Cost more than I would like, but can't do without them.

    These controllers are the same size and shape as the gray Joy Cons that came with my Switch, but the colors are very bright and lively. I couldn't get a Neon Switch, so I grabbed this set on my way out of the store and was glad I did. They add that nice pop of color I wanted. The red is definitely neon, nearly pink in color, and the blue is about the same color as the cases for Wii U games. I haven't encountered the infamous left Joy Con connection issue with these either. I could just be lucky, but I'm gonna go with it.

    I purchased the neon red/neon blue Joy-Con controllers because I wanted to replace the grey colored controllers that came with my Nintendo Switch. Best Buy was the only store in town that had them in stock, available for purchase/pick up that day. The new neon controllers fit perfect. They were simple to swap out. My Nintendo Switch looks so much brighter and the controllers work great!

    Works very well. Kind of small and hard to use if one has larger hands. Besides that I would recommend. Plus it wireless which makes it better. No cords to fool with.

    As with the construction and design of the Switch Joycons, they are built to take the brunt of a drop and protect the screen and main part of the system. Unfortunately that means the tiny plastic piece that causes the joycon to lock into place on the main part of the swtich body tends to break fairly easily. Having a spare joycon or twon will come in handy. Just wish nintendo sold them a little chaeaper or made the single joycon packs easier to find.
