    These are overpriced, but the best option and my son keeps breaking things, so, well played Nintendo... Well played.

    I like having extra controllers because when I get together with my whole family we can each have a different color. They work great and haven’t had any issues.

    I actually really like the joy cons. They are excellent controllers when paired up in each hand but they are also really useful on their own individually to be used as impromptu party controllers for a large group. The thing that I really like about these controllers is that if you happen to already on the switch console with the neon Joy cons this set happens to have the colors reversed meaning that you can have either a all blue or all red switch because the left and right colors are in reverse.

    Geek Squad recommended new joy cons to fix our Nintendo Switch and it worked! So glad we didn't have to replace the entire console.

    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'm starting to understand how Nintendo can sell the Switch for what it does. First-party replacement or additional controllers are stupid expensive. With that being said these Joy-Cons are the exact same as the ones that come bundled with every Switch. They do what they were designed to do.

    Good pair of joycons with no drift issues. The pink is pretty dark though, you'd think it was just red unless you have another red one next to it.

    The Joycons are awesome. The HD Rumble feature really makes you feel the game. They are small and easy to carry. You should have at least two pairs so you can play multiplayers games like Mario Kart and make the experience extra fun.

    Distinguish Players

    These are great if you have the neon red and blue joy cons, because when you connect these controllers to games, it specifies which colors are which player number. Vs if you get all gray, you won't know until you look for the light on the joy con. It's a fun little way to distinguish players.

    I was lucky enough to be able to purchase a Switch on launch day, but they didn't have any bundles with the colored controllers. I really wanted that bundle but I also really wanted the Switch. Luckily my mom paid for half so it wasn't as big of a hit... but seriously, Nintendo? $80??? They are cool....

    Works as they should. none of them are built to last so be prepared to replace them at least yearly if the game is played often like my sons is.

    They are joy cons. They do joy con stuff. They work. But save yourself some cash and go buy the Japanese or Hong Kong versions on eBay or something. They do joycon stuff and are 40-50 bucks

    Joy-cons: Sometines you have to pay to play.

    Nintendo Switch joy-cons: two controllers for the cost of...well... two controllers. I get it, there's a lot of tech jammed into these little guys. 20 hour battery life, all the motion tech from the Wii controllers, NFC in the right thumb stick for Amiibo figures, an IR sensor, plus they can be used independently for multiplayer games. You need them to play, so they're less of an optional accessory and more of a "gotta have it" because if you want more players, you'll need more controllers.

    Great out of the box. Wish I didn't have to buy new ones because mine started having drift and were unrepairable. The price is ridiculous for when you can just get a full wireless controller for the same price.

    Wanted to get a different color Joy-Con to compliment the red/blue set that came with the Nintendo Switch, this worked out perfectly. Have had no problems with it since purchase and have very much enjoyed multiplayer games with four different colored controllers!

    I'm kind of a nerd and am wasting money collecting the different colors Joy Con come in. I was both excited (something new to buy!) and disappointed (something new to eat up my money!) when Nintendo announced new colors. But I had to get them. And they're cool.
