    Joy-cons: Sometines you have to pay to play.

    Nintendo Switch joy-cons: two controllers for the cost of...well... two controllers. I get it, there's a lot of tech jammed into these little guys. 20 hour battery life, all the motion tech from the Wii controllers, NFC in the right thumb stick for Amiibo figures, an IR sensor, plus they can be used independently for multiplayer games. You need them to play, so they're less of an optional accessory and more of a "gotta have it" because if you want more players, you'll need more controllers.

    A great addition to my switch play--no more lagging or sticking joysticks! The colors feel closer to plum and goldenrod than purple and orange, but that suits me just fine! The new controller colors make is easier to play in groups of 8!

    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.

    Buttons were self-selecting/scrolling...knew child had worn out the buttons but didn’t occur to me to get replacement controllers for whatever reason?? His switch performs as new since receiving Cool unique colors give it a bright new look too.

    I love my Nintendo Switch. These joy-cons added nice color to my set up and I love it because Splatoon 2 is my favorite game; the colors match the game. I had previously bought a splatoon sticking skin for my Switch consol and joy-con holder and so this addition is great for that.

    Good licensed joy cons that do what theyre supposed to as theyre supposed as opposed to 3rd party equipment that sometimes has glaring issues

    The set of Joy-Con are working great. Our kids are hard on them, including dropping them from time to time, and they get a lot of use. They seem well-made. We really like the convenience of being able to charge them in the charging dock (available for purchase separately).

    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.

    I bought this for my daughter for her birthday. She loved them and her and my other kids use them to play against each other. Now more people can play on the games which has helped a lot during Covid-19 stay-at-home orders. Worth the buy for sure!

    This is very useful to purchase, giving all who comes over more options when it comes to playing in a large party and it is even better if you purchased the blue and red controllers as well because you are getting closer and closer to forming your own little mini controller rainbow.

    I loooove the color of these joy cons! I've been using them for about a month and have had no issues with it so far. I bought these as back up because I heard that the Nintendo joy sticks can drift after a while but it has been fine.

    Great fun colored joy-cons. These are cool because technically they can be 2 separate controllers or 1 controller. All the multiplayer party games you could think of work natively with joy-cons, and they're well made.
