    First off I'm reviewing this product solely on the principle of what it does as its intended. I myself have not experienced joycon drift on any of my pair of joycons but YMMV. Secondly I picked these up because I needed more controllers for smash bros which brings me to my first positive. You technically get two controllers with each pair of joycons when played with on their side so it eases the $80 price tag. Next positive are the colors which I think Nintendo tends to do right making each pair distinctive and unique. My one con I can think of which again I haven't experienced myself is the drifting issue which must suck for those that get it.

    Not too much to add here except the colors are vibrant and great for kids knowing which ones are theirs but too small for extended use for adult sized hands.

    They are joycons. A bit pricey for a controller, but worth it if you need them. Plus the colors are gorgeous!

    These joy cons work just like the originals. They have been a great addition to playing with 4 player games and for using them together as a single controller.

    Bought these to rreplace the (drifting) Joy-Cons on my wife's switch. She adores the (ugly) color scheme and so far they're holding up well. Just wish they weren't so expensive considering how prone they are to JoyStick Drift.
