    Bought these extra so all my kids could play. They work great and they’re now all enjoying games together.

    They're joy-con. Love 'em or hate 'em, they're exactly as advertised. It could be my imagination, or maybe the fact that I played with my original ones for hundreds of hours before getting a second set, but these seem to be even more well-made and slightly more hefty than the ones that came with my Switch. I don't know if there have been any hardware changes to the Joy-con since I bought my Switch last March, and it very well could just be in my head, but they feel nice and it's great to have an extra pair around when I have friends over to play ARMS. I bought a charging base that charges two joycon and one pro controller, and I rotate out which joy-con are attached to my Switch and which ones are loose so they're being used evenly to hopefully increase their lifespan. It's really nice to be able to keep a pair connected to the Switch and have another pair to use when in docked mode, since some games feel really nice with the joy-con rather than the pro controller, and I can still just pull my Switch out of its dock with the other pair already attached. It's a great way to keep all four charged too, since they charge on the Switch in its dock as well as on the separate base.

    A Good Idea To Have

    Seamlessly fit with my Animal Crossing Console screen, though not the dock. A good idea to have as back up for when your joy con batteries run out, want to play with another, or just in case something happens to your systems own controllers. I feel better knowing I have them and use them in place of my collector joy cons often to preserve them.

    I got this pair of joycon so that we can play multiplayer games on Switch. Theses are identical to the set which came with the Switch. The colors are nice. I chose a different set of colors from my original joycons so that I can easily differentiate them. Everything works as it’s designed. I would recommend getting the original NES joycon instead of third party ones.

    Bought these Christmas of 2019 and one year later (12/2020) they work completely fine. No connectivity issues, they respond accurately to motion and the colors have not faded. My 12yr old is ROUGH with anything she has, so for these to still be going strong, A+. However, they are more expensive than what they need to be. 1 point for you capitalism.

    Clever controls. Very nice quality. $80 bucks is a bit much. They are tiny and hard to use when using them each as a separate controllers. But you need these in many cases. So technically for many games you are essentially getting two controllers for $80 dollars so if you don’t need the joy cons. Save a lil and get the pro controller.

    Great addition to our nintendo switch. Still think they are a little pricey especially since it doesn't include the controller that cost $30 more. But they work great and I love all the different colors. I have four children and they all have their own set. Wish they would go down in price. But other than that they are great!

    If you have friends you should buy an extra pair of joy-cons. I personally have gotten much use out of a spare set, and have yet to get the infamous drift issue after a year of use.

    These are amazing controllers, i like that they are wireless, very light, compact size and very responsive and holds long battery charge. It comes with a removable lanyard (highly needed when playing Mario party). In my opinion, the nintendo switch and these joycons are the best gaming family system. It adds fun times during this unforseen circumstance.

    After Santa delivered a Switch, a few games and an accessory or two, all was well. That is until your wife wants to challenge you kids in Mario cart races and other Mario based games. Thus, a trip to Best Buy was in short order. Because the Switch is my sons, he chose the all gray model of controllers. My daughter's however wanted color and something different than that bratty brother. These two controllers linked up easily and provide enough access for bo one to have to sit in the "pits." Happy racing, or whatever is your game of choice. This is a must have for those who have a few kids, or great to have for sleepovers.

    I bought these for my Nintendo Switch because I wanted to keep the originals in tact. Nice vibrant colors and work nicely just like the originals. Comes with the straps so you can loop it onto your arm and nice to have for additional players. If you're considering buying an additional set of joy-cons I definitely recommend getting some, even if it's not in this color!

    Only thing i can say is these are a must to buy if you want to play with multiple people at once!! I mean they do what they are meant to do... I can only say they work! But way to expensive for such things!! Nintendo likes to play hardball with their product prices!

    I have a Nintendo Switch that came with blue/red Joy-Cons. I needed two more, and this package allowed me to have a complimentary set to the ones that came with my Switch. The blue/red switch bundle comes with a left blue and a right red. This pack contains the complimentary left red and right blue. They were easy enough to pair. I just wish they were cheaper.

    You will need more joycons for your switch. Get some that your kids will like the colors of. Our daughter loves the pink one the most. They are just like the ones that came with the switch, just different colors. Only wish they were cheaper in price while maintaining the quality.
