    I bought these for two reasons. The first is I like purple and orange. And the second was I wanted something other than the standard blue and red

    Love these!! I wanted the gray switch but at the time they were hard to come by, so I had to get the red/blue joycons. These made my dream switch!!

    These are the first joy cons I have bought that didnt come with my system and I absolutely love them. They really pop and look great. They are my main set of joy cons now.

    We had to buy replacements after the original joycons that came with the Switch started to drift. It took two years but it happens to all controllers eventually. My only issue is that I feel that they are little pricey. But that's not Best Buy's fault. They are same price everywhere,

    There are a lot of multiplayer games on switch to play, this is a great for basic game play in multiplayer. I believe all the pro player will have their own joy.

    Bought these so 4 people could play switch. Recommend a charging dock so you don’t have to keep changing them out on the switch console to charge. Nice colors.

    I love the concept of joycons. They’re one of the smartest things nintendo has ever done. They play right in to that philosophy that gaming should be FUN. HOWEVER, these things are disgustingly overpriced. Especially since the drifting can still be a common issue.

    These switch controllers are in awesome colors. It is sad the tracking mechanism went out on the old remote, I am just hoping this one works as good as it looks!
