    Absolutely love this new color. So much nicer than the original red and blue controllers. The controllers buttons and joy stick are very smooth to touch and it even comes with a nice easy to adjust protective case. This purple and orange are the best colors out yet!!

    These colors look great. They work just like any other Joy-Con. I hope they last longer then the original set that came with the switch. It seems all joy-cons have or will have connectivity issue.

    Needed a new pair as my old ones began to start drifting. These actually were on sale when picked up, but still expensive for the lowest form of control for any game system. Not the fault of Best Buy but still.

    Beautifully innovative, but may not be right for e

    I have both a Nintendo joycon and a pro controller. I really enjoy the joycon as it can be split into two seperate controllers and be used by two seperate people, I think its extremely innovative. The rumble features in my opinion are on par with Sony and I have found the motion controllers to be very cool myself. However, buyers should be aware this product does not come with a grip (essentially the piece that holds the two joycon in one controller frame). It's just the two individual pieces not attached. The grip is approximately an extra 15 bucks. In addition these controllers are likely in addition to the pair that comes with the switch. These controllers do need to charge and the only way to do so is to have them attached to the switch console itself, which means you cant also charge the joycon that came boxed with the switch at the same time without another product. If you're going to buy the extra joycon I would recommend either a charging grip (which can be plugged in via USB- c to a wall charger or a charge station. I also recommend if you play more solo and less with friends to check out the Nintendo switch pro controller. This feels similiar to an xbox 360 controller and can also charge independently with a USB - c cable.

    It was nice that they had these available in my area when no places around where I am currently living have these colors. This is the second set. Unfortunately the first replacement pair developed really bad stick drift within a week. On the plus side, BestBuy replaced them no questions asked and now it works as expected. We have had all together 4 switch consoles in our house this was the only pair to ever get stick drift.

    Expensive but necessary

    Way too expensive for what they are, and plagued with software and hardware bugs. Recalibrating them from the main menu sometimes works, but sometimes they just quit working correctly. I bought these to replace the stock ones that got stuck with one of the sticks always pushing "up". It's also annoying not having a proper d-pad. I understand why they had to do it this way, but it makes certain games really difficult.
