    I was avoiding the red/blue JoyCons because I thought they'd be obnoxious, but they're actually quite sleek and far more functional than the Wii-motes of its predecessor. Very pleased with this particular purchase.

    My 7 year old goes through these. This is the third pair and glad they give us this option to purchase alone as replacements. Need for any gamer child.

    They work well and haven’t had any issues. I like that they’re the opposite of the other ones so I can have both blues or reds on.

    It doesn't matter what controllers you take home but the colors are vibrant and stand out from the standard red and blue. Still pricey but you gotta remember you're essentially buying two controllers

    I mean, it's a Joy-Con... You should know what to expect here :). I docked one star because the price is a bit high, thanks Nintendo. Also think most of the color options are ugly, but my son wanted orange and this was as close as I could get.
