    Best Controller Out There

    These things are great. I have used the cheaper ones that are a single controller and these split joy cons are so much better. They have been abused and still work but I have gone through three of the cheaper ones in three years. I wish they would go on sale but I understand why they don’t because they are worth it at their regular price.

    Works great, even after a year of owning these. They're cute, vibrant, and functional! No drift, no problems at all. Battery lasts long and i am happy with the purchase.

    Works like new joycons should. The ones that came with my switch started drifting so I needed to replace them, now it feels like a new switch again, with cooler colors.

    These joy cons are very small.... smaller than i had originally expected. But they work and feels great despite my large hands. Battery life on them are also great as they are suppose to last for 20 hours of play.

    Overpriced necessity for multiplayer gaming

    Nintendo makes quality pieces of hardware. These are no exception. The controllers have a good solid feel, and there is a relatively high amount of tech packed into the Joy-Cons themselves (IR cameras, Gyros, Etc). For those with larger hands, cramping will occur if your into "all night gaming sessions" (unless you get the optional comfort grip sold separately). My own personal gripe is that the joy con "sticks" are not off set from the the arrow/buttons on both controllers. That leads to some accidental button pushing/control issues. All that being said they retail for significantly more than their competitors (i.e. Microsoft, Sony) charge for their controllers. That there is the rub. Nintendo does, what Nintendo does. If you factor in all the nickle and dime'ing that they do, like purchasing a grip/shell to hold these Joy-Cons, the high likely hood of having to buy a SD card for additional storage, over priced extra system docks; the fact is people will pay it. Hence the one star deduction in my book.

    These work just like the other Joy-Con controllers. They’re really vibrant in their coloring. Everyone notices them when they come over. They really pop compared to the red and blue ones and especially the grey ones. As for use, they’re just like any Joy-Con controller. Work well within about 10 feet of the console. They can get spotty reception if there is something between them and the console. I keep the console docked below the TV. If I’m laying on the couch, the coffee table can be between my hands and the console. When this happens, I have had some issues with responsiveness. This is no different than other colors or the pro controller.

    Need More Controllers

    Seriously, you need more controllers. The console only comes with 1 set. Some games use half a joy-con, some games you use them together. I purchased all different colors.

    I love the joycon color options. I bought the neon pink and green ones. They look fantastic and work great. Not much else to say. I guess if I had to list one complaint it would be that they are pretty pricey... but that's how most controllers are nowadays lol.

    Vibrant colors. Compatible with switch. Great for multiplayer games. Be careful with which way the detachable parts go in. If you put them in wrong it is a nightmare to try to fix it! Overall overpriced.

    Colorful Console Controllers

    Do you have more than one player of your Nintendo Switch? If so, you should do yourself a favor and pick up an extra set of Joy-Cons. The colors are personal preference but I’d recommend you consider a set with different colors for left and right. It makes it easier for your players to identify “their” controller. Nintendo prices these things high, but that’s what every console manufacturer does with their controllers. In a way, this CAN be two controllers though so that’s something to think about.

    My daughter broke one of the original paddles so we had to buy a new set. Originally she was looking for the blue but when she saw these neon ones she had to have them. She said she loves them because they are cool looking and sometimes when she is talking and not paying attention she would almost put the wrong one on the wrong side, since the originals were both gray. That doesn't happen with these because they are color coded. She said she loves these way more than the originals that came on the game. I would say they hold up exceptionally well. Overall very happy with our purchase :)

    A buddy of mine had purchased the Neon set Switch and I finally got a chance to see the colors of these Joy Cons up close. The blue and red neon really pops and I knew I needed to add them to my Switch. When my left joy con started having some thumbstick issues, I picked these up so I could keep playing while I sent my original gray one in for repairs. Still have these on even after getting it back because I love the colors so much. That aside, they function just like any other Joy Con does. Well worth it if you want/need to add another pair of Joy Cons to your Switch for multiplayer play.

    After an impressively embarrassing amount of gameplay on my original pair of controllers, the time for replacements had finally come. Using Best Buy was a no brainer, and sticking with Nintendo approved controllers is the only way to go. While I opted for a more muted color scheme, the option for a plethora of vibrant and expressive colors was available. I’d definitely recommend anyone in the market for new Switch controllers to click “buy” and get back to gaming!
