    These are a must have for one of my favorite games on the Nintendo Switch- Just Dance! I had to get an extra set of controllers so more people can join in on the fun! Make sure you wear the straps that come with the box otherwise it will slip right out of your hands as you fling your arms in the air dancing!

    Worked as intended. Although pricey, it plays well and better than knock-off brands I have tried.

    The tech behind these is great. I literally can lay on the couch in any position, upside down, backwards, my hands on either side of the room, and I can still play the switch. I was slightly disappointed that they become less responsive occasionally when held behind a body part (usually a leg while I have my knees tucked on the couch). I have to reposition myself get get the connection back. This is rare, though, and I absolutely LOVE MY SWITCH. So that's that.

    I bought these controllers with the purpose of playing Mario Kart with some family that was visiting during the holidays. I purchased these along with the wheels, and it was great. It was easy to operate, and did not take long for the kids to become attached tot these.

    These are an addition to our Switch so we can play more motion games- didn’t realize our controllers that came with the Switch were aging until we got new ones lol. Function as they should- opposite colors of the ones the switch came with.

    I purchased a second set of joycons for multiplayer. One cool feature is that the Switch can tell what color the joycon is and display that on the screen. This is useful for multiplayer games! One drawback is that there isn't an easy way to charge these out of the box. You can put them on the Switch to recharge, but there's no separate cable.

    We bought extra joycons so we can play Mario Party with the kids. They work just as well as the ones that came with the switch. We did buy an extra joycon charging grip because the grip that comes with the switch does not have the charging port.

    I bought these controllers so I could mix-n-match the Joy-Cons that came with the Switch — since they are the opposite colors from the ones that came with the Switch, I’m able to pair the Neon Reds together or the Neon Blues together.

    These controllers came in handy. We have been trying to get some extra ones since last year and they were sold out but it was one left and we grabbed it and that first night we played Mario and I so love playing the game with my kids.

    Got 2 Nintendo Switch Wireless Controllers (one green and pink, one blue and yellow) so now there's no question as to whose is whose. They were thrilled and with the added charging station I think grandma might have even out done Santa. Happy grandkids, happy grandma!

    Bright colors, and the flexibilty that you expect from Nintendo’s JoyCon controllers. They aren’t the most durable, so be gentle with them.

    The Joycons are awesome. The HD Rumble feature really makes you feel the game. They are small and easy to carry. You should have at least two pairs so you can play multiplayers games like Mario Kart and make the experience extra fun.

    Bought these to open up the 4 player options for Mario Cart, overcooked, and others. They are the same as what comes eith the console, quick sync to the system and rechargable batteries make this an easy addition. Proce tag is a bit steep but keep in mind you are getting 2 controllers for most games
