    My Nintendo switch never looked better. Neon pick and Neon Green. We own the Splatoon Switch and this allows us to have two green or two pink or on of each on the Swicth. Looks super cool when playing with the squids and highly functional as we now have 4 controller's.

    The Joy-Con Left and Right Wireless Controllers for the Nintendo Switch have proven to be an exceptional gaming accessory, earning a well-deserved 5-star rating. These compact controllers not only enhance the gaming experience but also offer unmatched versatility and functionality. First and foremost, the Joy-Con controllers are incredibly comfortable to hold. Their ergonomic design fits snugly in my hands, providing a natural and effortless grip during long gaming sessions. The buttons are responsive and well-placed, ensuring smooth and accurate gameplay. Whether I'm engaging in high-intensity battles or playing casual games, the controllers offer precise control and an immersive experience. One of the standout features of the Joy-Con controllers is their wireless capability. The freedom to detach them from the console and play wirelessly adds a whole new level of convenience and flexibility. It allows me to find the most comfortable position while gaming, whether it's sitting on the couch or lounging in bed. The wireless range is impressive, ensuring a stable connection even when I'm a bit farther away from the console. The Joy-Con controllers offer unique features that set them apart. The HD Rumble technology provides tactile feedback, enhancing immersion and adding a new dimension to gameplay. It's remarkable how the controllers can simulate subtle vibrations or more pronounced sensations, making gaming experiences truly come alive. The built-in motion controls further expand gameplay possibilities, enabling intuitive movements and gestures for a more interactive and engaging experience. Another impressive aspect of the Joy-Con controllers is their versatility. Each controller can function independently, serving as a fully functional mini-controller for multiplayer gaming. This means I can easily share one set of Joy-Con controllers with friends or family for exciting local multiplayer battles or cooperative gameplay. The ability to use them as separate controllers or attach them to the console for a more traditional gaming setup gives me the best of both worlds. Battery life is always a concern with wireless controllers, but the Joy-Con controllers excel in this aspect. They boast a decent battery life that allows for extended gaming sessions before needing a recharge. Additionally, the controllers charge quickly when attached to the Switch console, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum gaming enjoyment. Lastly, the Joy-Con controllers are backed by Nintendo's renowned build quality and reliability. They are sturdy and built to withstand the rigors of gaming, ensuring long-lasting durability and performance. The seamless integration with the Nintendo Switch ecosystem and the support from an extensive library of games further solidify their value. In conclusion, the Joy-Con Left and Right Wireless Controllers are an essential accessory for any Nintendo Switch gamer. Their comfort, wireless capability, unique features, versatility, impressive battery life, and reliable performance make them a perfect companion for immersive gaming experiences. Whether playing solo or engaging in multiplayer battles, these controllers deliver on every front. They have earned their 5-star rating and continue to be an integral part of my gaming setup.

    The Joy-Con controllers are great whether combined as a single controller or separate for 2 players. Controllers are wireless and motion sensitive. Bought this pair to be our second set to support up to 4 players. The product is a little pricey but our first pair has held up and still work like new, even with 3 kids using them on a regular basis.

    Same set of joy-cons that come with a new switch. Everything works as it should. I had to pick up a set since my last ones started “drifting” and making some games unplayable from a controller point-of-view. The old set lasted two years, so hopefully these last longer or at least hopefully Nintendo fixed what was causing the drift problem in the first place.

    These are the same kind of joycons you get with the switch to begin with. Got them for 4 player games. good quality you expect with Nintendo products. Easy to install. Just dock them on the switch to connect them the first time. East to use. Very fun. A little expensive but that just comes with the market. Have fun!

    These controllers are exactly like the ones that come with the Switch. If you like the feel of the originals, you'll like the feel of these. No surprises, good or bad, there. However, it comes with no storage method. Not a stand, not a holder, nothing. So you basically have to buy a stand or leave them sitting around somewhere. They're not like typical controllers that can sit nicely on their own. They have no solid structure and look like 2 small tv remotes, and I stress small. So you either buy a stand (and I recommend the charging stand), or you sit them down and risk damaging or losing them.

    Many of the game titles have multiple player modes, so you need more controllers. Each joy-con can function as an individual controller but I think most people prefer using it as a full controller with both joy-cons. Using the single can tire you fast. I recommend getting the insurance for $11. These haven't proven too durable with younger kids.

    The joy-cons work perfectly, there have been no drifting issues yet but dont expect those to possibly hit until over a year or more. The colors are pretty and bright.

    Love the colors. I wanted to get four joycons so I could play Mario kart with friends and wanted to get something fun to go with the neon red and blue joycons I got with the console. Overall quality is great, exactly what you would expect since it’s a Nintendo product. Really you’re buying these for the colors and these go well with what I had.

    No gaming console compares to the Nintendo Switch. These controllers are an essential addition to the system- especially since these additional controllers are reversed from the original switch controllers. Now you can have an all neon red or all neon blue set! Good to have for lots of friends to play together, and a great back up set just in case as well. A Must Buy!

    I wasn't initially sold on the idea of the joy cons, until I started using them. They are a great, cordless way, to game 3 or 4 player split screen or couch coop in the traditional way going back to the N64 or the SNES with the multi tap. They are a little pricey, IMO, but they do work well and it is very nice to have an extra set for when friends come over and want to game.
