    As with any Nintendo brand product, the quality is pretty excellent (though with their JoyCons you want to make sure you keep wary of stick drift). The only catch is they're remarkably expensive and almost never go on sale, just like most Nintendo products.

    Definitely need this if you are a Switch game player. I have friends over a lot and needed a way for a minimum of three people to play a game all at once. This was perfect! Easy to use and I love the colors more so than the ones that came with the Switch.

    The controls easy to use for those new to the Switch. In order to engage the whole family extra controllers are needed to have 4 people play. The colors of these controllers make them easy to find since the controllers that come with the unit store with the unit and the extra controllers must be stored alone.

    The Switch Joy-cons are great! They're oddly comfortable to hold, despite how small they are. The neon-blue and neon-red colors are very nice looking. They fill sturdy and they are packed with tons of features. HD rumble, motion controls, shockingly good battery life. Nintendo has made an amazing controller this time around.

    The nintendo switch is such a great gaming console. When we purchased it, we didnot get the extra controllers. However after playing and seeing how much fun we were having we needed to go out by the extra controllers. The price was right and again you need to have this if you have more than two peopel wanting to play

    Standard Controllers

    These controllers are pretty standard to the ones that you get with the Switch. There’s literally no difference between these ones and the stock ones that come with the switch besides the color. I would recommend getting a second set of controllers though, it really helps you out when you forget to charge 1 set.

    You can use the joy-con controllers that come with the Switch to play some two-player games, but having an extra set of controllers is best to get the best experience out of Mario Kart, Smash Bros, etc. You can even play up to four players on Mario Kart with an extra set like this.

    Wanted a second pair of Joy-Con's for my system and these work great they come with Joy-con straps which is cool. Plus with set that comes with system for certain games you can use each set as two controllers so now you can have Mario kart party with just two sets of Joy-Con's which would make them 4 controllers for that game.

    Excellent Switch controller. We needed a 2nd controller to play coop games and I spend the extra $ to get the name brand controller. It was perfect. The kids enjoyed the neon colors. I recommend paying the extra money and getting the Nintendo controller.

    Wireless Controllers work great with our Switch. Colors are vibrant and fun. My only suggestion would be, they should come with a charging station instead of forcing customers to buy something separate.

    Joystick remotes break down so easily! Remember N64 remotes and playing a game where you had to pull back hard on the joystick or spin it fast? I remember going through a remote every 3 months or so. These break down a little slower but it's the same defect 20 years later. My son got almost a year out of his Joy Cons but the $70 for replacement remotes is a little steep. Ehh, he was happy with the colors. They're the reverse of the ones he already owns.

    They do the job as intended. If using like a traditional controller, then I recommend buying a pro controller as they are more practical. Overall they can be used like normal as you Dan get use to it.
