    My nieces needed some new controllers for the switch and I shockingly found these on sale (never happens). These are great, just wish they lasted longer before getting "stick drift"

    My son dropped his Nintendo Switch and it broke one of the tabs so the controller wouldn’t stay on good. I decided to buy him a new set. I was able to switch the controllers with my daughters switch, so now she has red controllers and he has blue. So it all worked out in the end.

    so I dont' have peeps over all the time but when the wife and I do and they are not hardcore gaming types we throw in Mario party and it always seems to be a popular pick. these controllers work great for the game though sometimes I need to instruct the others on button usage. they are like the ones the switch comes with. so if you like those you'll like these.

    We already have the blue and red Joycons, but with more than one kid in the house, we decided to get a second set of controllers in colorless grey to end the bickering over who gets to be red and who gets to be blue. Ah, the joys of parenting. Lol. If you have kids that argue incessantly over anything and everything, get these.

    Indeed, very excited to own the Gray Switch. The Neon Blue/Red adds a whole new level of excitement to the experience. These are not very gaudy, rather subtle enough, just the right amount of shine. Initially I thought I would save this exclusively for my kid's use. But I must confess, I have been using them more than my KIDS.

    I bought this on a whim as the red/blue/grey combo wasn’t really doing it for me. I haven’t had any sync issues with them either. The color contrast looks great on my Switch in addition to getting two additional controllers for multiplayer games. It’s not a necessity, but if you’re looking to get more controllers that aren’t red, blue, or grey, this is a great choice.

    The Nintendo controllers are quite pricey when you compare to XBox/PS, but not when you consider what's included (IR, accelerometer, touch controls). This "one" controller can quickly change into two, though it feels small in my adult hands in this configuration. Overall, this is a great product and a must-buy for anyone who wants to play multiplayer games on the Switch.

    I've had these controllers (and various other colors) for a few months now and have had no issues with joy-con drift. I had purchased the plain neon green ones (both right/left neon green) years ago and experienced drift with those almost 1-2 months after buying. However, if you personally start experiencing that problem, Nintendo is still offering free repairs through their website. It took about 2-3 weeks for my other ones to get repaired during this pandemic - including shipping to and from them. I would say these controllers are worth the money because you get 2 controllers (technically). I will say these are not the best options for people with larger hands and would recommend the pro controller if games are compatible with it.

    Good battery life and although small for my hands, perfect for my 6-yr-old's. Being able to use as 2 distinct controllers in different orientations = smart & fun engineering.
