    Joycons are inherently bad

    [Employee of bestbuy] I love the colors. If you want to play any of the fun multiplayer and nintendo exclusive games, get the joycons. If you would rather have a better experience on any solo/first person game I recommend the holi-split pad (same price? And turbo mode). Joy cons make my forearms ache. If you have stressed and strained wrists from work, dont get joycons for single player handheld gaming. They also have less game hours on average in their life span than any main console controllers on the market (hundreds vs thousands).

    Joy cons, get extra pairs for group games (Mario Kart, Mario Party) or get some just to act as spares.

    Great purchase to replace older Joy cons. Had no choice but to buy a red and blue switch (only one available) wanted to replace with gray!

    I wish Nintendo would pull a card from their 90s playbook and start releasing these in all manner of colors. Translucent purple, dark green, Pikachu themed. Just keep em coming.

    I bought the grey Nintendo Switch and was happy with it. These are a bit flashier but still solid controllers. I'm glad they were in stock, sometimes it's difficult to find this color.

    Controllers work great. I do wish Nintendo would reduce the cost of these a little but the quality of the controllers is great regardless.
