    Wanted a second pair of Joy-Con's for my system and these work great they come with Joy-con straps which is cool. Plus with set that comes with system for certain games you can use each set as two controllers so now you can have Mario kart party with just two sets of Joy-Con's which would make them 4 controllers for that game.

    Joystick remotes break down so easily! Remember N64 remotes and playing a game where you had to pull back hard on the joystick or spin it fast? I remember going through a remote every 3 months or so. These break down a little slower but it's the same defect 20 years later. My son got almost a year out of his Joy Cons but the $70 for replacement remotes is a little steep. Ehh, he was happy with the colors. They're the reverse of the ones he already owns.

    Good color combo, works well. We usually have to upgrade every couple years due to use, I’d say good value !

    Bought my first Switch which was the Oled model. I needed extra Joycons to play with my family. Always loved the way the blue and red Joycons looked. Classic switch colors. They work great! I will be buying more.

    I bought these joy-cons for my 8 year old as the original ones that came with his switch were acting up. He is a fan of Splatoon 2 so I thought they would be perfect! He loves the colors and always comments on how he likes the way they feel when he holds them!

    Pick these up as a Christmas gift for my kids switch I bought them extra controllers come in handy for games such as Arms and Mario Kart. Not much else to say other than that they work well. A little too small for my hands but I'm getting used to it and a bit pricey for what they are otherwise pretty good product.

    I purchased this to add to our other controllers to play Mario party with our family. They were easy to pair and now my kids prefer these over their other controllers. Like all other Nintendo gear, they are well made and easy to use. Great Product.

    It was nice that they had these available in my area when no places around where I am currently living have these colors. This is the second set. Unfortunately the first replacement pair developed really bad stick drift within a week. On the plus side, BestBuy replaced them no questions asked and now it works as expected. We have had all together 4 switch consoles in our house this was the only pair to ever get stick drift.

    My other controllers got worn out and made my charater run with out my hands on the controller. So they do wear out after like 80 hours of play, but I love my fun colored ones so I can tell the difference in which one is broken

    We have 5 kids and wanted to add some controllers so they can play more of the games together. These work perfectly and we love that you can add them together. We chose to get the multicolored ones so when you add them with the two that came with the system you can have one full blue one and one full red one!

    Quality controllers. I love having this extra pair while I have my other ones charging on the console. They also make playing games in bed comfortable when they are detached. Innovative for people like me that can't stop playing even when they're trying to go to sleep.
