    These controllers are great! I love the fact that they’re not the typical grey or blue/red combo that come with the unit.

    Joy cons are great but absurdly expensive

    I love the idea of the Joy Cons and the fun variety of colors they offer them in, but even on sale it’s absurdly expensive. They are nearly 1/3 of the price of a new Switch. Otherwise, I very much like the feel of them.

    Switch essential

    This is a must purchase for any Switch owner. It's expensive, but it's a huge upgrade from the nunchuck day of the Wii. Unlike the nunchuck, both side of the controllers can be used independently and you don't have to worry about the cable in between. On games that only require one joycon, each player can grab one to play. They are not as durable as the Wii controller so make sure you get the protective cover for them.

    Nintendo doesn't get enough credit for their ingenuity. They may not be considered mainstream in today's gaming world, but that's doesn't stop their competitors from trying to follow in their foot steps and failing. Xbox had the kinect which has been mostly scrapped and the Playstation had the move which has been resurrected thanks to VR. The JoyCons are essentially the next generation Wii mote and they are fantastic. I've heard complaints above size, but with my larger hands they still seem to fit just fine.

    Original Joycons started to do the dreaded "drift", was finally time to replace with some new ones. Like the colors available and paired/synced with my Switch immediately without issue. And most importantly, these solved the "drift" issue I was having!

    The official nintendo joy-cons are very high quality and I have no complaints about them or their battery life. However, they are way too expensive. $80 for a game controller is just too much.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
