    These are no different than the standard Joy-Con that come with the Switch as far as quality and functionality. Bit pricey for what they are, though. The little control sticks can feel a bit flimsy when playing more intense games.

    Do they work out of the box, yes. Will one or both controllers get the famous Joy-Con drift problem when you are you are at most vulnerable state when you are stressed out and just need the soothing sounds of Animal Crossing but you can’t enjoy it because the controller is not acting right, also yes. I have my original set, and the one that I just purchased with Geek Squad protection. Even though Nintendo offers a free return process for the controllers long past it’s actual warranty period, the first time I got the drift it took them about a month, to send me a replacement. When they work.. they are great. But when I need them to work, my soul screams in pain. It kills me that Nintendo still hasn’t figured out a way to prevent this from happening.

    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!

    These additional Joy-Con controllers are an excellent addition for a Switch, they enable you to play 4-player local games, which makes titles like Mario Party so much more fun. The colors are true to photo, and my kids enjoy them.

    Exactly as described. Colors are vibrant. A little difficult to slide off the joy con straps but overall easy to use.

    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!

    While not the original color I was looking for ( I wanted the Yellow and Purple One) these were great. They look great on the Switch too. Haven't experienced any drift with them yet either.

    The colors are really pretty. The neon green and pink remind me of watermelon and it’s just too cute. It works and pairs just as well as the joycons that come with the switch. Price isn’t too bad

    Great product! I bought these while I was waiting for my original Joy-Con to be calibrated (I use them EVERY SINGLE DAY!) I love the quality and how easy they are to pair up with my switch. The colors are super pretty too!!

    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.

    A little overpriced, but if they included the grip accessory with it then maybe it'd be worth it. Other than that they work great, and the colors are nice and vivid on them too.
