    These controllers are great, but prone to drift as they get older (usually caused by dust or debris). Always get the replacement plan when you buy them!

    They are good, but you know that after a while you have to replace them; they tend to get damaged over time.

    I bought these because old ones were wearing out (also experience beginning of drift) and all the supplies for replacement parts were sold out. Like colors and matte finish on it. Hope next time parts aren't sold out so I can keep the shells longer.

    Decent controllers

    Truthfully, Joy-Cons are great little controllers. The 3* review though is mostly due to the fact that they're "overpriced" and not entirely ergonomic (even with the wrist strap attachments). They're solid but not great for a good gaming session. I'd recommend just picking up a Pro Controller if you tend to play mostly solo and casually with other friends (without a switch) and use the two Joy-Cons as two extra controllers if it's REALLY necessary, or give the second friend you may chill with the Joy-Con Grip/Joy-Cons. Chances are, friends will have a Switch too nowadays so you can expect them to have Joy-Cons already in the worse case. Extra's aren't totally necessary UNLESS you really need to cater to family and you use your switch purely for affairs as such where they're less likely to have some Joy-Cons or a Switch for that matter.

    Great product . Exactly the same as the ones that come with a new console. I just needed these because my old ones wore out. They are just very expensive .

    Joy-cons are nice, but a little small is you have bigger hands. Good battery, response seems a little iffy at times (when playing 4-player games, sometimes responses go away, might be interference with wifi). Otherwise, not bad.

    Let’s admit it, the switch controls feel dinky and cheap. The sticks develop a wander eventually and you end up buying a forged painting from Red which ruins your whole day. It just sits in your mail to remind you how crappy your old joy-cons are. Then your wife reminds you constantly how that could have been avoided if you had bought her new ones a month ago when. She asked... After sleeping on the couch for a night you decide it’s a good idea to buy these the next day. Well 24 hours later you’re back using your pillow and the cat is back on the couch.

    I mean, the joy cons by Nintendo are already super great, besides the whole drift issue that comes from some of them, but I have to say, this color/version of them has to be the best. The picture on the box does not do it justice! The green is just so neon and vibrant! Against the black of the switch, it pops so well, and looks real good! Definitely recommend, if it's in stock!
