    These cost way too much, but what ya gonna do. They never last long and seem to need to replace them once a year. The knock off ones cost less but do not work well.

    I love the joycons as controllers. What's cool is that the Switch knows which color each joycon is in the settings, so on screen, you'll know that player 2 is the guy with the yellow joycons for example. I'd recommend a joy con controller grip, as some people need one complete controller to hold onto.

    I bought two different sets of these. I had no issues with any of them and they made it so that the whole family can play together.

    I bought this extra set of joy cons about four weeks ago. They work really well and they’re really cute! They motivate me a little bit more as I play splatoon 2! :) One thing that I have noticed is that one of the joy cons seems to be slightly loose on my switch. My switch is only about two months old and I’m careful removing and putting joy cons on so I’m not sure what’s up with that. They come in handy when I need extra set of joy cons to play Mario kart with friends.

    Great and extra cool with a neon switch.

    I actually really like the joy cons. They are excellent controllers when paired up in each hand but they are also really useful on their own individually to be used as impromptu party controllers for a large group. The thing that I really like about these controllers is that if you happen to already on the switch console with the neon Joy cons this set happens to have the colors reversed meaning that you can have either a all blue or all red switch because the left and right colors are in reverse.

    What is there to say?

    I'm starting to understand how Nintendo can sell the Switch for what it does. First-party replacement or additional controllers are stupid expensive. With that being said these Joy-Cons are the exact same as the ones that come bundled with every Switch. They do what they were designed to do.

    Purchased as a replacment set for one of our grand children, as apparently the old ones were not doing well. Excellent investment, as she is much happier now.

    Distinguish Players

    These are great if you have the neon red and blue joy cons, because when you connect these controllers to games, it specifies which colors are which player number. Vs if you get all gray, you won't know until you look for the light on the joy con. It's a fun little way to distinguish players.

    Wanted to get a different color Joy-Con to compliment the red/blue set that came with the Nintendo Switch, this worked out perfectly. Have had no problems with it since purchase and have very much enjoyed multiplayer games with four different colored controllers!

    I'm kind of a nerd and am wasting money collecting the different colors Joy Con come in. I was both excited (something new to buy!) and disappointed (something new to eat up my money!) when Nintendo announced new colors. But I had to get them. And they're cool.

    Pricey... but Cool Colors

    I was lucky enough to be able to purchase a Switch on launch day, but they didn't have any bundles with the colored controllers. I really wanted that bundle but I also really wanted the Switch. Luckily my mom paid for half so it wasn't as big of a hit... but seriously, Nintendo? $80??? They are cool....

    Needed new joy-cons. My original ones began to not work. They would drop the connection and lag. They work how they should. My order was quickly filled and picked up. Bestbuy was the only store in the area who had these in stock!
