    Had to replace my old JoyCons since my cat accidentally damaged one of them. These colors are great and make me love my Switch even more!

    The official Joy Cons for Switch are pretty pricy, but are worth the cost if you enjoy playing multiplayer games like Mario Kart with bigger groups.

    Joy Cons are the controllers for Nintendo Switch. They work well when combined with the grip pads, otherwise they are a bit small for larger-handed gamers.

    Original Joycons started to do the dreaded "drift", was finally time to replace with some new ones. Like the colors available and paired/synced with my Switch immediately without issue. And most importantly, these solved the "drift" issue I was having!

    We purchased an open box set and it works great with no issues! We were concerned with possible stick drifting or other possible quirks since it was an open box, but fortunately no problems. The kids love the colors and use them all the time. They connected right up to the Switch easily.

    Picked these up as a second set of joy cons for the kids to be able to play together. Only issue is I feel like they’re a tad on the expensive side considering the issue with drift.

    I like purchased these for the family to play Smash Bros. And they work fine. I use a full size controller because these are uncomfortably small in my adult hands. Also they are really expensive

    When you buy this, it does cost a pretty penny but you are simultaneously getting 1 full controller that can change into 2 small controllers. Great Deal.

    Got these after I bought a Neon Switch, and I gotta say these are as nice as any Joy-con. The dark colouration helps for discreet gaming.
