    I bought the 2nd Gen. Nintendo Switch and it came with the neon colors red and blue . I don' t really like those colors so I decided to get the gray color Joy Con controllers . Cause the gray Joy Con controllers match the Nintendo switch display .

    Love the new color, bought it because the color was so unique and vibrant. Feels sturdy and is great to the touch with its matte finish. Looks good paired with the switch and joycon comfort grips.

    Wanted to get a different color Joy-Con to compliment the red/blue set that came with the Nintendo Switch, this worked out perfectly. Have had no problems with it since purchase and have very much enjoyed multiplayer games with four different colored controllers!

    These are perfect and just the color I wanted. Being christmas it was hard to find. I was put on the notify me list. Best Buy got them in stock I ordered them and they shipped and arrive super fast. The product was in excellent shape and they work great. We needed the extra controller for when we play a game of family Monopoly. If you've used a JoyCon controller you know they come with bumpers that make the controller bigger. Some don't use them. I personally really enjoy them. They make it easier pressing the bigger buttons rather the smaller. Pay attention when putting them on to the plus and minus on the bumper and the controller, to match them. I did not one time and had a mini heart attack because I couldn't get it off. Luckily, my boyfriend did. Learned my lesson. Overall, highly recommend.

    The joy-cons from the original console are nearly worn down after buying on the launch date (over 2 years). I love that they’re really made to last a long time, and I don’t have a case for them. Love these new crisp-feeing joy-cons. I know they’ll last a while.

    the one thing i love about the switch is that it comes with two joy cons, how ever i have a large family so these two bad boiis made a great addition to our system when playing multiplayer games such as mario kart , just dance, smash bros and others.

    I love the joycons as controllers. What's cool is that the Switch knows which color each joycon is in the settings, so on screen, you'll know that player 2 is the guy with the yellow joycons for example. I'd recommend a joy con controller grip, as some people need one complete controller to hold onto.

    Bought this on sale before the holidays. The ease of curbside at Best Buy beats any other store I’ve ci sides of this pandemic. This was the perfect addition to our sons Christmas gift and we put it to use on Mario cart right away.

    The colors on the box give the actual colors on the controllers no justice! Watermelon and neon pop out nicely. Not a fan of the Nintendo switch drift issue which is the reason why we need new ones
