    Must have extra controllers for family fun! Kove the classic colors option to go with my OLED white ones, was able to connect right away and enjoy that night! Now I can have them on the go as well to play with friends and family anywhere!

    If you bought a Nintendo Switch with the included neon blue and red Joycons, these are perfect for completing a set of each color. That's because when you buy this 2 pack it includes the opposite color side from what's included with the system. My kids and I absolutely love it. -1 star because the Joycons sometimes tend to have "drifting" issues where, after months of use, the switch believes the sticks are moving on their own while playing. Nintendo was able to fix this problem for me twice for free by sending them in for repair. To be clear, I have not had any problems with this particular set I bought at best buy. The problem popped up with the ones that came with the system at launch back in March of 2017.

    Color schemes are customizable with a few caveats. Only the lefties can be Magenta / Orchid /Pink. Only the righties can be Turmeric. All other five colors can be applied on either Joy-Con. (Blue, Grey, Green, Red, Yellow) If you are not fussy about colors, no need to worry about it. Easy to set up peripherals. Authentic Nintendo Switch Accessories. Exactly what it says on the tin.

    We like the neon pink and green colors because it gives everyone a different color controller when playing together. While I do feel like they are overpriced, it is Nintendo and unfortunately that is just expected.

    Bought this for my daughter and after a year still holding up well. I recently Had to replace the joycon thumb stick on the right joycon due to kids dropping it. Kids must have dropped at least a hundred time before it broke. So as for quality I say its well made and will for sure survive a few accidental Drops. I am happy with my purchase.

    Work the same as the ones out of the box! Plus the colors are opposite so you don't get the controllers mixed up

    I bought these because my previous Joy-Cons were suffering from major drift issues. I've had them for a few months now and they seem to be fine. I really hope they don't fall victim to the same issues as the other ones. Nintendo has said that they have fixed the issue with newer controllers but the jury is still out on that. I'll definitely follow-up on this review in the future.

    It’s impressive what the joy cons can do. From motion controls to getting your heart rate through the IR sensor when playing ring fit. Joy con drift is an issue although I have yet to experience it on my 3 pairs of joy cons. Many have had issues with it but Nintendo will repair it for free if it ever happens. My biggest complaint is I prefer the size of the pro controller. The HD rumble is impressive.
