    Works perfectly! I originally bought the grey joycons due to the Switch being sold out at the time, and always wanted the original colors. Now the family has 4 joycons and we can all play Mario Party together.

    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.

    Power in the Palm of My Hands

    Small enough to fit comfortably in my hand, yet large enough in its scale of diversity, the "Joy-Con (L/R) Wireless Controllers for Nintendo Switch" has enhanced the way I play games. Whether it's horizontal, vertical, with a grip, or free, each position is designed to fit ergonomically, which enables me the freedom to play for countless hours at a time. Of all the consoles I've owned, the Nintendo Switch's controllers have to be my favorite by far. --With that said, I have to be light-handed/delicate when using Nintendo's Joy-Cons as to avoid the notorious "Joy-Con Drift"; however, Nintendo offers free repairs for this issue & will refund anyone who's been charged, to fix the defect, in the past. --I thinks that's a pretty good deal should I ever experience this issue myself. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my new pair. Cheers!

    These were replacements for the originals. Maybe it's me learning how to take care of them better, but these have held up much better. Or maybe it's because I got the insurance. It's like taking the car in for a noise that stops when you arrive.

    The left blue that came with the switch did not work going straight up or down playhing Pikmin 3 deluxe. Don't think it was a drift issue. But these work perfectly. Now sending the original to nintendo for repair. My son really likes the colors.

    Great colors. And a bit of a wide variety of colors works great. And dont have to worry about getting them mixed up with other controllers. The minecraft game is good. And has a lot of different routes to take. And to play.

    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.
