    Got these for my son as i didn't want him messing up my zelda ones. So far they have held up! Have had drift problems in the past. Also this wasn't really the color I wanted but settled as the others were out of stock.

    These controllers are great. Not only are they neon green and pink, but they work fabulously with the Nintendo Switch and add an extra 1-2 people (depending on the game) to your gaming!! If you're looking for extra joy-cons, definitely go with the color!

    Well made, like the ones that come with the Switch. For those with the blue/red Switch, the add-on controllers are reversed in terms of colors so that you don't have two of the same color rights/lefts. These will come in handy when Mario Kart comes out this week!

    Bought the item to help my daughter pass time after original joycons got the drift. Still planning on getting the original fixed, but We love the colors and it's nice to have a controller that actually controls

    Apparently I’m not the only one who has had problems with the joy cons and drift but I guess that’s just from wear and tear nonetheless I love my switch and the joycons it makes multiplayer games that much easier and I love smash ultimate

    Buying extra joy-cons are a must have for multiplayer. They are on the pricey side. You can use them as 1 unified or 2 separate controllers. Great battery life. The joycons are of great quality, the smooth edges, joy sticks are tight, and buttons have good action.

    Great value, comfortable and versatile

    "Oh boy, more wiimotes" Not exactly. The joycons are quite versatile and I am impressed with the thought Nintendo put into the Switch and all of its accesories. The grips combine the two into a serviceable controller. Yes, the pro controller and any other standard controller are more comfortable. But this will do. The real strength shines in using each as separate controllers. You in essence get two controllers for the price of one. This won't do for every game, but it will do for many of the better simplistic multiplayer games (Bomberman, most likely Mario Kart) Nintendo even includes a top snap on contraption for more heft and comfort to be added. I've heard no complains from any of my casual gaming friends regarding comfort or confusion. Invest in a pair or two of joycons for multiplayer sessions and grab yourself a pro controller for any extended sessions on single player games

    Great product and color. The black and gray look changes up the look from the original gray and blue that came with my Nintendo switch. Plus I needed extra controllers so the family can join the fun.

    They have worked great as place holders for the joy cons we’ve sent out for repair. Kids love the colors and keep fighting over who gets to use them. Always nice to have genuine brand products as well.

    These work as well as the originals. There is no stick drift after initial testing, but I won't rule it out from happening down the line. I love the color.

    The price is a little high… but other than that they were really easy to connect to my switch. The colors are very bold if that’s what you’re into.

    As advertised. Same as OEM controllers except the colors are opposite so if the original is still working, you can have both left/right red or blue.
