    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!

    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

    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.

    Got the plan on this to combat drift. I think it will be a good choice because I do not treat my controllers kindly. Color choice was exactly what I needed.

    Whoa, if you want to control your character on the screen this is the thing to get. It’s got everything you need like buttons, a joy stick, bright colors. I would definitely buy more bright colors if I go to the store high.

    I wanted a second pair of Joy-Cons for my Switch and these were my first choice. They aren't kidding when they say they are Neon Red/Neon Blue! The colors are very vibrant and I love them.
