    I've heard of people getting off market controllers that don't work very well. These work well with the switch, as well as individually.

    It is a little too expensive. But handy too have around as a spare controller. Would buy again out of necessity.

    The best controllers for the switch are the 1st party Nintendo controllers, no contest. I've tried multiple alternate controller types and nothing works as well or as smoothly.

    Needs Revision

    It's unfortunate that Joy-cons have a history of eventually skipping upon regular play. There needs to be further revision of these so that this isn't a common problem OR there needs to be an affordable replacement option!

    I wish Nintendo accessories were cheaper. I'm afraid will have to buy multiples over time with known issues.

    Eh- these keep breaking but there aren’t any alternatives and my boys are rough with them. These are still going for now (fingers crossed). Definitely but the warranty.

    If you owned the switch it’s always good to have a joy con controller because it’s not only you can merging into one on regular size controller but you guys have on turning to the size and you have two small controllers you can do fights on and play Mario kart racing.

    This makes the 4th pair of Joy-Cons I purchased. For some reason they work for awhile then eventually have issues. The left controller in particularly give the most problem. Last I heard Nintendo has acknowledged the problem and is now fixing the controllers for free. If so I plan to return all the other controllers for repair.
