    The colors are way nicer in person IMO. These usually stay on my Switch while my grey ones stay charged up on my charging grip, ready to go if I need to swap Joycons or play on the tv while the Switch charges. The price might seem high but these also work as 2 controllers sooo it kinda balances out!

    Really cool joy cons. We love the colors and it was easy to replace the old ones. A little overpriced in my opinion.

    These Nintendo Joy-Con controllers work as well as the ones that ship with the unit and can either be used to replace a broken controller or as additional controllers for multi-player games. The colors are exciting. Highly recommend.

    I really like these colors together. I was very excited to see these back in stock (joycons were sold out everywhere recently) and grabbed them quick. Pretty happy with these so far. There hasn't been any drift...yet *fingers crossed* but I did buy the protection plan just in case. Wouldve been a 5 star review but one of the joysticks is clicking when we use it. Still works though!

    I actually bought these as additional controllers to the ones that come with the switch. Just as expected and adds a splash of color to the system! Fits perfectly in the quad charger and we have yet to have any issues with either controller. Lets us expand and play the 2-4 player games!

    The colors are opposite from the original joy-cons that came with the switch. Makes it easier for your kids to keep track of them. Item works effortlessly out of the box. Ordered pickup, item was brought out swiftly.

    A second controller is absolutely necessary for anyone who purchases a Nintendo switch. The joy cons are well made, definitely worth the price. They make single player experiences (like Zelda) enjoyable in a new way, and are a really creative way to approach multiplayer games. Good job Nintendo.

    We love these joy cons. The switch identifies the color controller on-screen allowing us to choose which controller we want. The battery life is equal to the original joy cons that came with the switch.

    Joy Cons will never get a Full rating from me until they stop charging and arm and a Leg for devices that are prone to drift very early on in their life. These colors are the best! Got them around halloween and my Bday. Orange is one of my favorite colors and Purple goes perfectly with it. Must have for spooky vibes! Finally got some cool colors since I started with a Gray switch.

    I bought the Nintendo Switch with the black colored joy-cons and it looks good dont get me wrong, but when you have the neon blue and red joy-cons, it adds something else to it. Like the cherry on top of a ice cream sundae. they feel better and look better. i strongly recommend these!!!!!

    The kids wore out their original Joy-Con controllers and purchased this to replace. They are happy with the purchase and said all issues of drifting were gone. The Joy-Con controllers were easy to connect to the existing Switch.

    Love these joy cons , gives options for color combination. I prefer doing red/grey or blue/grey. If you have the neon bundle, you can complete the set colors of all red or all blue. Highly recommend this for extra controllers for upcoming games like Mario kart and current game bomerman.0
