    Whoa, if you want to control your character on the screen this is the thing to get. It’s got everything you need like buttons, a joy stick, bright colors. I would definitely buy more bright colors if I go to the store high.

    I bought the extra Joy-con wireless controllers so that my granddaughters can play with their friends. It’s a good idea to have extra controllers so that at least four players can play....and there will be no fighting.

    I decided to finally grab another pair of Joy-Cons. I had to get a pair that matched, I couldn't go with the others with two colors. Though, I can't say I think Joy-Cons are the best. The main complaint is they're small for my hands. It doesn't make them bad of course. There is one thing that does make them bad and it's the drift that can easily occur in the Control Sticks. I had them for about 2 months and I needed to send it the Left Joy-Con to Nintendo for repairs. Fortunately, Nintendo offers to repair them for free because of this reason for anyone. Even if you ave no proof of purchase. I'm happy with them overall though. They're great for local multiplayer games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Super Mario Party.

    we like these joy cons, color is vibrant. Hubby mixs/matches these with the red/blue joy cons sometimes to shake things up, lol. Make sure to buy a joycon grip for maximum comfort.

    We’ve had the Switch for three years and we have replaced these darn flimsy expensive controllers three times already. As a comparison I’ve been playing Xbox for almost ten years and I replaced two. Next time I will try a third party vendor instead.

    They look way better personally than what they look on the packaging picture. Totally recommend, you will immediately fall in love with these joycon. Kinda wished the Switch came with these, to be honest

    I've had a Switch since the day that it came out -- if you are wondering, you absolutely should get new joycons every now and then. Great replacement for my originals.

    Having to buy them in pairs means its a little pricier then other consoles controllers but then again there's a lo of games now where each player needs only one joycons so it's still a great value
