    Cool color combo, they’ve helped up well so far, took my son a year of abuse on the last pair to get drift, definitely recommend buying a warranty with any joycons/controllers

    The controllers are Nintendo and work as designed. Love the colors as my nephew went to Clemson. I know they’re Splatoon colors tho. I try to stick to original brand as much as possible to ensure the best game play. I’ve had third party before, sometimes I’ve been disappointed and sometimes not. But I’ve never been disappointed with Nintendo.

The Joy-Con controllers seamlessly adapt between handheld and tabletop modes, offering responsive controls and innovative motion sensing. The Pro Controller enhances long gaming sessions with its ergonomic design, solid build, and extended battery life. Both types are well-engineered, providing reliable performance and enhancing the overall gameplay experience on the Switch. Whether for casual play or intense gaming sessions, these controllers significantly elevate the gaming experience.

    I had to replace my older Joy-Cons and these fit the bill. And I love the colors. They work great with the rechargeable hand held device for the Nintendo Switch.

    My original joycons broke after 3 years (they started drifting so bad I couldn't play), so I got these while I get the old ones repaired. What a difference to have new ones!! No drift at all (I've been using them for two weeks now, like I said, my old ones lasted 3 years). They work perfectly, didn't need to calibrate, the grip is super comfortable, and the colors are *gorgeous.* The orange is slightly different than pictured––to me it looks more like a neon cheeto color rather than what looks like a darker yellow on the packaging. Still looks great tho.

    Bought these to replace the old original controllers that were starting to malfunction. According to my kids, after a lot of use the old controllers started to drift while playing games Mario Kart. So far they work great and we love the new neon colors. They are a bit on the pricey side, however, I have been disappointed with knockoff /generic controllers in the past.

    My original controllers were eaten by my dog so these were a great replacement. Work well and durable (except when a dog gets them). Also love the colors

    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.

    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!

    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.
