    Our Switch has been used frequently and the left controller was acting up. We could not find a replacement locally, and were fortunate to find replacements online. Thanks BestBuy.com

    Joycons are a little pricy, but if you're going for a good 4 player experience in Mario Kart or Smash they're a must buy if you only have 2 joycons. Build quality is pretty good, some of the features that make them pricy aren't always used, but they're controllers, and they work well.

    Not much to say here. Pretty pricey for controllers but that has always been the gaming manufacturer’s way of making money ever since wireless remotes came to market. They work as they should

    The Joy-Cons are essential at setting up your new Switch. These have always worked great for me and have never had any issues. I’ve been lucky to avoid any “drift”. Can’t complain!

    These were a birthday gift for my daughter. The colors are fantastic, and just what she wanted. I dont understand why nintendo cannot figure out how to make a a joystick that isnt prone to drifting. This would be my only complaint and its overall with any of the nintendo joycons.

    I bought a Nintendo switch but the grey ones were sold out so I just bought the grey joy cons separately for my switch. Works out because now I have an extra pair to play with friends.

    It’s nice to have extra joy cons so more people can join in. Plus these colors were originally thought to be Japanese exclusives, but now we get to enjoy them stateside. They feel sturdy and solid despite there compact size.
