Customer Ratings & Reviews

I, like many others, prefer playing the Switch in handheld mode. Unfortunately, this means being at the mercy of the Joy-Cons. I have had a ton of issues with these, specifically the left Joy-Cons. I am now on my fifth pair. The first had a de-sync issue which Nintendo repaired. The second had an issue where pushing the left stick all the way up wouldn't fully register so characters would just walk instead of run. The third had an issue where even when I wasn't touching the left stick, the character would walk left by themselves. Then the fourth immediately had a mushy feel to the L button and the left stick made a clicking sound right out of the box. Issues 2 and 3 happened just outside of Nintendo's one year warranty, so I had no choice but to purchase a new pair. Nintendo really should not be charging $80 for these as they are cheaply made. They claim that it's actually 2 controllers, but the single Joy-Con functionality is way too limited for that to be true. I really cannot recommend these. So many have had issues with them, and they are far too overpriced for what you get. Of course, if you play mainly in handheld mode, you really have no other choice. If you are trying to decide between these or a Pro Controller for docked mode, stay far away from these and just get the Pro Controller.

Got and the Purple and Orange option and Love it. The price should be a little cheaper as these things are not durable.

I bought these controllers to be able to play Mario cart with my friends on the switch, I like how small and compact they are, very easy to take everything you need with you wherever you want to go. The colors are more vibrant than I expected them to be which is a plus!

Perfect controllers - they're made by Nintendo so as expected are just like the ones that come with the Switch. Wish they weren't so expensive, but it's kind of like 2 controllers since you can use each part of the Joycon as a standalone controller with most games. Compared to the $40-$50 I used to spend on one Xbox controller, that's not awful put in those terms. The colors are much more purple and yellow than pink/orange like it may appear on your computer/phone screen.

Needed extra remotes for my brother's switch and these were the perfect ones. Always better to go for the OEM as opposed to 3rd party accessories.

Good value. I had 700 hours on my old ones. These are smooth and have no analog drift.

The battery life is great, portability, usability, everything. Yeah it's pricey but it's essentially two controllers and that's the same price as one Wiimote and less than ps4 and Xbox one controller. Buttons are responsive, color looks good, and the grips are great too. Definitely recommend if you have lots of people to play the switch with especially for upcoming games like Mario kart 8, Arms, Etc.

Great controllers. The colors are amazing and looks great on the switch oled

They work. Bought to replace the original controllers that failed after 1.5 years. Will see how these hold up too. I notice that the price has gone up quite a bit due to supply and demand.

Love the color on my controllers! They were so easy to pair and easy to use.

Needed more controllers for multiplayer games. Really like the colors, and it makes it easier to know who each controller belongs to

This controllers are amazing. The price Is a little high but for almost $80 you get 2 controllers instead of 1. It has multiple functionalities.

I bought these extra switch joysticks for when my granddaughter comes over with her friends so they all can have their own. Love the fact that I did n

They are like the Neon ones, but just black! That said, great to have a second pair incase your main ones have no juice or you want to play some 2 player action!

Right color, right time. I only wish they didn't drift so soon into their life! But when they work they're fantastic.

I like that I can choose different colors for my remotes Rather than the standard all black. I do think for the price they should come with the plastic part that makes them hold like a regular remote. It only comes with the side pieces...

Got my daughter a switch for Christmas. She loved everything about it and it’s fun for the whole family. However it only came with two white controllers so I bought the neon, orange and neon purple joy cons and they’re my favorite ones to use love the color orange.

My sons joy-cons were gettting old and worn out. He didn't take as good care of them as he should have. These are pricey but they are the actual joy-cons that come with the switch. I wish they didn't cost as much but they work as good as new.

Love these colors. Even brighter than they show online. Usual solid Joy-Con quality. Love 'em

My daughter is very happy with her new joy con control's. She loves the colors and make her switch look new.
