    You never really know if the “extra” controllers will work as well as the ones that come with the system. These work just as well! They hold a charge. Response from the controllers to the system is great. Plus, who can resist bright neon colors?! Would definitely purchase them again!

    If you plan to play any multiplayer games, I highly recommend buying an additional set of joy-cons. The neon colors are bright and fun.

    Power in the Palm of My Hands

    Small enough to fit comfortably in my hand, yet large enough in its scale of diversity, the "Joy-Con (L/R) Wireless Controllers for Nintendo Switch" has enhanced the way I play games. Whether it's horizontal, vertical, with a grip, or free, each position is designed to fit ergonomically, which enables me the freedom to play for countless hours at a time. Of all the consoles I've owned, the Nintendo Switch's controllers have to be my favorite by far. --With that said, I have to be light-handed/delicate when using Nintendo's Joy-Cons as to avoid the notorious "Joy-Con Drift"; however, Nintendo offers free repairs for this issue & will refund anyone who's been charged, to fix the defect, in the past. --I thinks that's a pretty good deal should I ever experience this issue myself. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my new pair. Cheers!

    These were replacements for the originals. Maybe it's me learning how to take care of them better, but these have held up much better. Or maybe it's because I got the insurance. It's like taking the car in for a noise that stops when you arrive.

    These are just like the regular controllers, but in brighter colors. Several color combinations to choose from. There are two main advantages to having these controllers. First if you have someone with a particular color preference. Second by having four separate colors it is easy to designate individual controllers to household members if you like each member to have their own controller. However, they seem overpriced.

    They don't last long. Get warranty if possible.

    The Nintendo switch controllers are probably the cheapest material and the most expensive controller i ever owned in my life. i had to get new controller very 4-6month and at over $69.99 each. If you have this same issue, Get the warranty. Learned the hard way. Horrible duration for controllers.

    Just got a couple to replace the original that came with the console two years ago. They still work fine but the left stick is losing some accuracy. So I can still use them to play party games and such. These can be a bit expensive, so I bought them during a holiday sale.

    Not much to say, they are Nintendo joy-cons. They work (yes aside from the potential for drift down the line with with all of them). Think Nintendo still does free repairs though.

    These are a must have for one of my favorite games on the Nintendo Switch- Just Dance! I had to get an extra set of controllers so more people can join in on the fun! Make sure you wear the straps that come with the box otherwise it will slip right out of your hands as you fling your arms in the air dancing!

    The tech behind these is great. I literally can lay on the couch in any position, upside down, backwards, my hands on either side of the room, and I can still play the switch. I was slightly disappointed that they become less responsive occasionally when held behind a body part (usually a leg while I have my knees tucked on the couch). I have to reposition myself get get the connection back. This is rare, though, and I absolutely LOVE MY SWITCH. So that's that.
