    Do they work out of the box, yes. Will one or both controllers get the famous Joy-Con drift problem when you are you are at most vulnerable state when you are stressed out and just need the soothing sounds of Animal Crossing but you can’t enjoy it because the controller is not acting right, also yes. I have my original set, and the one that I just purchased with Geek Squad protection. Even though Nintendo offers a free return process for the controllers long past it’s actual warranty period, the first time I got the drift it took them about a month, to send me a replacement. When they work.. they are great. But when I need them to work, my soul screams in pain. It kills me that Nintendo still hasn’t figured out a way to prevent this from happening.

    While not the original color I was looking for ( I wanted the Yellow and Purple One) these were great. They look great on the Switch too. Haven't experienced any drift with them yet either.

    Left joycon not working

    Ugh Either I have awful luck or Nintendo has awful manufacturing because I has issues with the left joycon 3x in a row ! Seriously! The left joycon doesn't hold sync with Switch and inputs would be wrong . I returned it and I had the same issue with the next version. I had this issue with my launch system left joycon and had to call nintendo to fix it . That's what I did here , and they fixed it and shipped it back to me free of charge . Call 1-800-255-3700 if the controller feels to de sync and occasionally inputs are off . That being said once they do work it's nice . The HD rumble is a nice feature and more advanced motion controls work nicely . I miss a D pad but I do like you can play games with a single joycon. Now that I have 4 working joycon , I will never buy another set . Grey color looks adult and overall it's not bad . I wish it was cheaper but being able to split up and play 4 player with 2 joycon sets is nice . Battery life is fantastic. So yeah the issue with left joycon is a serious issue so that should give you caution. Maybe it's been resolved in newest controllers but still something to think about .

    Bought these joycons so that the whole family could play together. We are enjoying the multiplayer Party games, and now we can play 4 at a time. They were very easy to sync with the switch. My son has even synced them to his switch lite for multiplayer fun

    The switch is booming this past year, and I love it. What else do I love with it? Joy-cons. These are such cool controllers and I love variety of colors in my products. The green and pink really pop and are so vibrant. As for how well they work, just like any other Nintendo product, nearly perfect.

    The colors are really pretty. The neon green and pink remind me of watermelon and it’s just too cute. It works and pairs just as well as the joycons that come with the switch. Price isn’t too bad

    so far so good, no drifting issues with these! and love the colors a lot. I know with the drifting problems some controllers have, i'd still recommend this style. I broke my elbow a few years ago so holding a single controller is hard for any length of time, these allow my arm to sit in more comfortable positions and give me the ability to change positions without affecting gameplay much.

    I had to replace my red and blue stock controls the switch came with because my dog found them and tore them apart. I looked online and found the Splatoon colored controls which looked awesome, the girls in the family definitely appreciated the brighter colors. They also played really well.

    I bought this extra set of joy cons about four weeks ago. They work really well and they’re really cute! They motivate me a little bit more as I play splatoon 2! :) One thing that I have noticed is that one of the joy cons seems to be slightly loose on my switch. My switch is only about two months old and I’m careful removing and putting joy cons on so I’m not sure what’s up with that. They come in handy when I need extra set of joy cons to play Mario kart with friends.

    I like the matte feel of these joy cons. It’s sweet to have these with the protection Best Buy so when they eventually drift. So far so good. I enjoy joy cons in general because of the freedom I have to hold them in any position.

    These additional Joy-Con controllers are an excellent addition for a Switch, they enable you to play 4-player local games, which makes titles like Mario Party so much more fun. The colors are true to photo, and my kids enjoy them.

    Great wireless controllers, flashy colors. Can be charged with the Nintendo Switch but much better with a four controller charger that guarantees all are ready at the same time.
