    While not the original color I was looking for ( I wanted the Yellow and Purple One) these were great. They look great on the Switch too. Haven't experienced any drift with them yet either.

    so far so good, no drifting issues with these! and love the colors a lot. I know with the drifting problems some controllers have, i'd still recommend this style. I broke my elbow a few years ago so holding a single controller is hard for any length of time, these allow my arm to sit in more comfortable positions and give me the ability to change positions without affecting gameplay much.

    My kids love the colors. They do everything I need with no stick drift. Only the Nintendo brand seems to work well with Mario party mini games.

    The colors are really pretty. The neon green and pink remind me of watermelon and it’s just too cute. It works and pairs just as well as the joycons that come with the switch. Price isn’t too bad

    I like the matte feel of these joy cons. It’s sweet to have these with the protection Best Buy so when they eventually drift. So far so good. I enjoy joy cons in general because of the freedom I have to hold them in any position.

    These additional Joy-Con controllers are an excellent addition for a Switch, they enable you to play 4-player local games, which makes titles like Mario Party so much more fun. The colors are true to photo, and my kids enjoy them.

    Great product! I bought these while I was waiting for my original Joy-Con to be calibrated (I use them EVERY SINGLE DAY!) I love the quality and how easy they are to pair up with my switch. The colors are super pretty too!!

    The colors are way nicer in person IMO. These usually stay on my Switch while my grey ones stay charged up on my charging grip, ready to go if I need to swap Joycons or play on the tv while the Switch charges. The price might seem high but these also work as 2 controllers sooo it kinda balances out!

    Great wireless controllers, flashy colors. Can be charged with the Nintendo Switch but much better with a four controller charger that guarantees all are ready at the same time.

    I actually bought these as additional controllers to the ones that come with the switch. Just as expected and adds a splash of color to the system! Fits perfectly in the quad charger and we have yet to have any issues with either controller. Lets us expand and play the 2-4 player games!

    These Nintendo Joy-Con controllers work as well as the ones that ship with the unit and can either be used to replace a broken controller or as additional controllers for multi-player games. The colors are exciting. Highly recommend.

    I really like these colors together. I was very excited to see these back in stock (joycons were sold out everywhere recently) and grabbed them quick. Pretty happy with these so far. There hasn't been any drift...yet *fingers crossed* but I did buy the protection plan just in case. Wouldve been a 5 star review but one of the joysticks is clicking when we use it. Still works though!

    The colors are opposite from the original joy-cons that came with the switch. Makes it easier for your kids to keep track of them. Item works effortlessly out of the box. Ordered pickup, item was brought out swiftly.

    A second controller is absolutely necessary for anyone who purchases a Nintendo switch. The joy cons are well made, definitely worth the price. They make single player experiences (like Zelda) enjoyable in a new way, and are a really creative way to approach multiplayer games. Good job Nintendo.

    Really cool joy cons. We love the colors and it was easy to replace the old ones. A little overpriced in my opinion.
