    We’ve had the Switch for three years and we have replaced these darn flimsy expensive controllers three times already. As a comparison I’ve been playing Xbox for almost ten years and I replaced two. Next time I will try a third party vendor instead.

    I bought the colored switch and would see others with same colored joy cons. I realized that with this pack the joy cons are opposite of the ones you received when you bought it so now you can have solid colored ones for your switch

    Pricey

    These little controllers work well, and the battery life is amazing. However, I feel Ninetendo is trying to match a market of consoles way out of there league when it comes to graphics power, speed, and style of games. $80 for two tint controllers no bigger than half of a dollar bill seems steep. They work as they should, and I have had no problems with them when it comes to use, but the high price matching with top tier console platforms is out of control. By no means do I believe anything Nintendo pumps out should be this pricey. I only got the controllers for Mario Party, nothing else as they feel funny when used on a controllers attachment. They lay around a lot because I only use then for one game and only when a lot of people are over that want to play. I am pretty unhappy with Nintendo, but there is no doubt that these controllers are nice and will last a long time even with my hatred towards their pricing decisions on their whole line of Switch consoles and products.

    I end up having to buy a set of Joy-Cons. I’m really happy I did so. It is really worth it to get the 2 year warranty in case it starts to drift. Like my old controllers used to do.

    I purchased a grey switch while I was looking for a neon set. Being that I figured I could just buy the neon joycons separately I picked up the greys. Finding the neon sign was a headache but they've quickly become my default set

    Nintendo has packed so much technology into these little JoyCons. From HD Rumble, to NFC Reader for Ambiio, IR tracker, wii mote capability, And the ability to make them into 2 separate controllers. Little pricey, but it is worth it.

    joy con drift doesn't seem to be an issue 4 these!

    I own every color option for joy cons and these are so vibrant and nice to look at. Joy con drift for this particular set is not a problem BUT I always recommend the geek squad protection plan in case it does become an issue. I have a toddler who thinks these are toys she can submerge in water or chew on and they work perfectly fine despite all the damage she puts them through! (the red and blue joy cons could never survive that!)

    Bought these to replace the stock Red/Blue ones that came with the switch. Absolutely love the colors but they start to do something called joycon drifting very easily. Would recommend looking into a grip with an inbuilt controller instead.

    High price but good value. For games like arms allows you to play two players with full motion controls and for games like mario kart you will now be able to play 4 player. Including the joycon that come with the system of course.

    I like these Joy-cons much better than the ones that came with the Switch, The texture is much better which helps with the grip. The colors pop as well. I recommend getting these.

    The redish color on the box isnt the same as the actual controller color but from seeing other people same joycons they all look that way. Otherwise joycons work perfectly and come with the attachments.
