    Swapped this out with my original controllers in case of breakage or drift. I have a special edition Switch and the controllers are not easy to replace if it breaks. Works as intended so no complaints. Wish it wasn’t so pricey though.

    We bought these joycon controllers to replace the other joycon controllers my son had that got scratched up and didnt work anymore due to a faulty joy con comfort grip. So far with a new joy con comfort grip these controllers are good though sometimes my son complains that his joy con controllers are glitchy.

    I love the Nintendo Switch system but I'm less enthused about the Joy-Cons. They have a tendency for the sticks to develop drift in a more faster means than your average controller with larger sticks, requiring more care to keep in shape. They're also a bit awkward to handle thanks to that stick placement. Honestly, if the kinds of games you and your fellow players (friends, family, whatever) require them, these are fine, but I'd rather use Pro Controllers or similar options for more traditional games on the Switch. AMAZING choice of colors though! Can't go wrong with the many vibrant choices Nintendo offers and this is probably my favorite combination.

    My left joy con on my original Switch wouldn't stay put. It would slide out without hitting the release button on the back. I tried to repair it (with a metal switch) but I messed it up. So I was forced to get a new set. While having colored controllers for the sake of having a colored controller doesn't mean anything to me, I kind of like the neon yellow color as it really stands out. But that's just personal preference. They work great and are easy to set up. My only complaint, and I'm sure a lot of people have it, and there's really nothing you can do about it, is the price.

    They work. Bought to replace the original controllers that failed after 1.5 years. Will see how these hold up too. I notice that the price has gone up quite a bit due to supply and demand.

    Joy-Cons are must haves

    Besides the pro controller, extra Joy-cons are a must have for useful multiplayer fun as using each side of a Joy con can be difficult if you have big hands.

    Perfect Controllers

    Perfect controllers - they're made by Nintendo so as expected are just like the ones that come with the Switch. Wish they weren't so expensive, but it's kind of like 2 controllers since you can use each part of the Joycon as a standalone controller with most games. Compared to the $40-$50 I used to spend on one Xbox controller, that's not awful put in those terms. The colors are much more purple and yellow than pink/orange like it may appear on your computer/phone screen.
