    Of course, brand new they work like a charm. These were replacements of the original controllers because the originals started drifting and I was afraid to fix them on my own and through nintendo, well, it wasn't economically wise to get them repaired when the cost was almost the same as new ones. So, hoping these will work for years to come w/o problems.

    At first I thought these were the same colors as the switch ones, which they are, but on different controllers. With these, you can have a set of full red or full blue controllers. Being one for symmetry I hated that the colors were different and this satisfies this need. Nice little surprise. Hope they do this will all other color schemes.

    The Joy-Con (L/R) Wireless Controllers for Nintendo Switch are a great addition to the Nintendo Switch. These extra controllers make it possible for the whole family to get in on game night.

    I'm typically very weary of buying game controllers from ebay or other online retailers, as I've gotten burned before. However, buying offical nintendo products like these from best buy, the experience has been great, and products have worked flawlessly. Always good to have an extra pair of joy cons, as we got the Mario party game, and the whole family now plays.

    Great little control

    We purchased this to be able to use with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, as this would allow four players at once (each set splits in two). While they feel a bit delicate, compared to some of the other controls that are available, they do the job and do it well. If controls were more reasonably priced, I'd go with the wireless pro options instead. All that said, the Joy-Cons are a great option!

    I had to get a new pair since my other ones were stick drifted. These work like new ans joycons often get drifted but i hate to keep buying new ones. Thus, its always better to get them here.
