    Initially after purchase the left Joy Con had antenna connectivity issues. Instead of returning it, I got in contact with Nintendo. They paid for round trip shipping to fix this common problem. Now that it's fixed and working like they should, I love them! I will invest in some grips for comfort when in handheld or when using one individually. That's a given that they're small by design.

    Got these to add players to my switch. Impressed with the quality, the battery life, and how lightweight and comfortable they are. They are a bit pricey, but its better to buy two together than to buy a single one.

    Looking for more colors to have for your Joy-Cons? Well this is the best way to do so and not buy individual grips. This helps to see which Joy-Con is connected to your Switch and whether it may need charging.

    My son loved the switch !! The remotes were a great buy because his old joy cons stop working. I got these so they will last longer. There are no complaints over here. I made my child happy.

    Easy to use controllers in fun, vibrant colors. The color options alone make the product difficult not to buy if you own a Switch! I just wish they weren't so expensive.

    Definitely worth it to purchase a second set of controllers, especially if you have more than one person to play with I would recommend if you have the system definitely add a second set, and possibly even a third set for multi gamer play

    Works like new joycons should. The ones that came with my switch started drifting so I needed to replace them, now it feels like a new switch again, with cooler colors.

    Cool colors. Wish these weren't so expensive, but afraid to buy the knock offs or off brands because of the bad reviews. I at least knew these would work and they do.

    Overpriced necessity for multiplayer gaming

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Nintendo makes quality pieces of hardware. These are no exception. The controllers have a good solid feel, and there is a relatively high amount of tech packed into the Joy-Cons themselves (IR cameras, Gyros, Etc). For those with larger hands, cramping will occur if your into "all night gaming sessions" (unless you get the optional comfort grip sold separately). My own personal gripe is that the joy con "sticks" are not off set from the the arrow/buttons on both controllers. That leads to some accidental button pushing/control issues. All that being said they retail for significantly more than their competitors (i.e. Microsoft, Sony) charge for their controllers. That there is the rub. Nintendo does, what Nintendo does. If you factor in all the nickle and dime'ing that they do, like purchasing a grip/shell to hold these Joy-Cons, the high likely hood of having to buy a SD card for additional storage, over priced extra system docks; the fact is people will pay it. Hence the one star deduction in my book.

    My original joycons broke after 3 years (they started drifting so bad I couldn't play), so I got these while I get the old ones repaired. What a difference to have new ones!! No drift at all (I've been using them for two weeks now, like I said, my old ones lasted 3 years). They work perfectly, didn't need to calibrate, the grip is super comfortable, and the colors are *gorgeous.* The orange is slightly different than pictured––to me it looks more like a neon cheeto color rather than what looks like a darker yellow on the packaging. Still looks great tho.
