    Beautifully innovative, but may not be right for e

    I have both a Nintendo joycon and a pro controller. I really enjoy the joycon as it can be split into two seperate controllers and be used by two seperate people, I think its extremely innovative. The rumble features in my opinion are on par with Sony and I have found the motion controllers to be very cool myself. However, buyers should be aware this product does not come with a grip (essentially the piece that holds the two joycon in one controller frame). It's just the two individual pieces not attached. The grip is approximately an extra 15 bucks. In addition these controllers are likely in addition to the pair that comes with the switch. These controllers do need to charge and the only way to do so is to have them attached to the switch console itself, which means you cant also charge the joycon that came boxed with the switch at the same time without another product. If you're going to buy the extra joycon I would recommend either a charging grip (which can be plugged in via USB- c to a wall charger or a charge station. I also recommend if you play more solo and less with friends to check out the Nintendo switch pro controller. This feels similiar to an xbox 360 controller and can also charge independently with a USB - c cable.

    Needed a new pair as my old ones began to start drifting. These actually were on sale when picked up, but still expensive for the lowest form of control for any game system. Not the fault of Best Buy but still.

    For standard joycons, they’re a good set. Vibrant colors, the new-controller responsiveness. They paired immediately out of the box and I haven’t had any drift or dropped connected even during long play sessions.

    Great Remotes, we have 4 sets.. all of them have been good solid devices.. they are a little expensive. we had an issues with one of them... and nintendo was willing to fix it out of warrenty, but luckily we figured out what was wrong and were able to fix it ourselves before we shipped it back to them with a pre paid label.. so glad when companies are willing to step up and fix / replace items.

    A must have when multi-player is involved. The colors are also great for distinguishing controllers.

    These work great and we have had no issues since purchasing them in March 2021 (it is now November 2023). I recommend genuine Nintendo products over third party - they always seem to last longer and just generally be better.

    Great controllers and awesome colors nintendo has put out. The only thing is the price I would still pay for the OEM ones then some cheap ones online still worth the price in the long run.

    These joy cons are a little bit expensive, but they work great and are much needed for 4 player multiplayer games.
