    Although for adults they might seem a bit small, they are fine for small hands. I do like the unique way they can be used together by one player, or can be split up and used by two simultaneously. The Switch is definitely an innovative console and these controllers are a huge component of that design. + They provide an adapter to make the triggers easier to press + They vibrate in a subtle way that enhances the experience + Fun colors + OEM + No drift (so far) + Responsive joystick - Pricey (although comes with 2) - A bit small when used individually

    The purple joy con immediately became my favorite colored joy con the second I took it out of the box. It's such a vibrant, dark purple and it matches perfectly with the Mario Red joy cons. The orange one is a lot more bright and I wish it was a similar darkness that the purple and Mario red ones have, but goes extremely well with the purple or the neon yellow just in time for fall. :) The controllers literally slide onto your Switch and can be used instantly. The time it takes to open the box and begin playing a game on your Switch couldn't be any faster!

    Perfect Controllers

    Perfect controllers - they're made by Nintendo so as expected are just like the ones that come with the Switch. Wish they weren't so expensive, but it's kind of like 2 controllers since you can use each part of the Joycon as a standalone controller with most games. Compared to the $40-$50 I used to spend on one Xbox controller, that's not awful put in those terms. The colors are much more purple and yellow than pink/orange like it may appear on your computer/phone screen.

    Joy-con drift solved

    Original Joycons started to do the dreaded "drift", was finally time to replace with some new ones. Like the colors available and paired/synced with my Switch immediately without issue. And most importantly, these solved the "drift" issue I was having!

    Bought these to have extra controlers for my OLED model. This allows me to have up to 4 players. 2 more sets can also be linked and used for up to 8 players but at $79 per its kind of expensive in comparison to buying the actual game system with controllers included. But they work great and add some additional color to the system.

    These controllers are great. Drift is a real issue but the original ones last way longer than the knockoffs, so they're worth the extra money.
