    I wish Nintendo allowed the sale of one individual Joycon so I wouldn’t have to purchase a whole new set, but the pink and green colorway is cute and they work!

    I love that the joycons are replaceable. Eventually they get stick drift. Being able to just replace the controller is nice

    Joycons are inherently bad

    I love the colors. If you want to play any of the fun multiplayer and nintendo exclusive games, get the joycons. If you would rather have a better experience on any solo/first person game I recommend the holi-split pad (same price? And turbo mode). Joy cons make my forearms ache. If you have stressed and strained wrists from work, dont get joycons for single player handheld gaming. They also have less game hours on average in their life span than any main console controllers on the market (hundreds vs thousands).

    These controllers are great. I love the switch and especially that these can be used as part of one controller or as two separate controllers for multiplayer. The motion controls work great, also.

    While I cringed at the price for these joycons, as a big fan of the game, I really like how my swtich matches the theme. The colors are so cool being neon and I'm glad I make the purchase.

    One of my joycons had broken & I figured it was safer to just buy this than it would be to buy a single red joycon from a random seller. I was nervous to buy from here, though, because of some of the bad reviews, but I did it anyway. I attached it to my Switch last night and it works perfectly. The only thing I noticed that I didn’t see in any review is that the colors are switched— red on the left, blue on the right. I guess if I wanted to switch out the new red one for the old blue one I could have an entirely blue Switch... Anyway, so far it works.

    The pair that came with Switch wore out after 7/8 months. You need these to play. I wanted to add color so these where the only ones at time other then the gray ones. Works well

    My original joycons broke after 3 years (they started drifting so bad I couldn't play), so I got these while I get the old ones repaired. What a difference to have new ones!! No drift at all (I've been using them for two weeks now, like I said, my old ones lasted 3 years). They work perfectly, didn't need to calibrate, the grip is super comfortable, and the colors are *gorgeous.* The orange is slightly different than pictured––to me it looks more like a neon cheeto color rather than what looks like a darker yellow on the packaging. Still looks great tho.

    Xtra controllers for boxing and Ring exercise games, which I expect to get a good beating. Excellent product. Will also use for other switch games.

    Product works great as it is supposed to. I needed an extra set for when my friends come over and these get the job done. Nice matte feel to the material. Love that it comes with the bumpers and wrist strap. I highly recommend getting these Nintendo Made controllers over the cheap ones you can find online

    Great controller set. Love that it breaks it up into 2 controllers and allows us to play 4 players for Mario Kart and Mario Party. Perfect for when we have a lot of people over.
