    Basic: Beware of Drift

    If you are getting these to fix your joycon drift just beware that these controllers still pose the risk of drift. Luckily I have never had a drifting problem and just got these to have extra controllers. They have been great so far and no drift but I also think joycon controllers are extremely overpriced for how basic they are.

    These are much better than the original joycons I got with the console. Specifically, I was experiencing drift in the left hand joycon, a common complaint.

    I love that you get two controllers in one with these Joy-Con. With these and the ones that come with the Switch you basically have 4 controllers, which in my case is enough for the whole household. I bought a second Comfort Grip to go along with these as well. I intend to get the Charging Dock once it comes out so I can charge all 4 at the same time and so I don't have to mess with my Switch unless I am using it in handheld mode. I did take one star off because I have a really hard time removing the straps.

    I feel like it brings me back to my childhood a little bit... Where the green N-64 controller was always the one I got to use (my older brother got Blue and little brother had yellow). The joy-cons are fun and colorful, we have a couple sets so we have a totally red and totally blue controller. Love em!

    Power in the Palm of My Hands

    Small enough to fit comfortably in my hand, yet large enough in its scale of diversity, the "Joy-Con (L/R) Wireless Controllers for Nintendo Switch" has enhanced the way I play games. Whether it's horizontal, vertical, with a grip, or free, each position is designed to fit ergonomically, which enables me the freedom to play for countless hours at a time. Of all the consoles I've owned, the Nintendo Switch's controllers have to be my favorite by far. --With that said, I have to be light-handed/delicate when using Nintendo's Joy-Cons as to avoid the notorious "Joy-Con Drift"; however, Nintendo offers free repairs for this issue & will refund anyone who's been charged, to fix the defect, in the past. --I thinks that's a pretty good deal should I ever experience this issue myself. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my new pair. Cheers!

    These were replacements for the originals. Maybe it's me learning how to take care of them better, but these have held up much better. Or maybe it's because I got the insurance. It's like taking the car in for a noise that stops when you arrive.

    Bought these to open up the 4 player options for Mario Cart, overcooked, and others. They are the same as what comes eith the console, quick sync to the system and rechargable batteries make this an easy addition. Proce tag is a bit steep but keep in mind you are getting 2 controllers for most games

    The left blue that came with the switch did not work going straight up or down playhing Pikmin 3 deluxe. Don't think it was a drift issue. But these work perfectly. Now sending the original to nintendo for repair. My son really likes the colors.

    I bought these controllers with the purpose of playing Mario Kart with some family that was visiting during the holidays. I purchased these along with the wheels, and it was great. It was easy to operate, and did not take long for the kids to become attached tot these.

    Works perfectly! I originally bought the grey joycons due to the Switch being sold out at the time, and always wanted the original colors. Now the family has 4 joycons and we can all play Mario Party together.

    Was experiencing drift after a few years with the joycon that came with my Switch (gray). I bought these to use while my original set was being repaired. I love the vibrant color, it makes them easy to spot. I sometimes wish they would come packaged with matching left and right joycon, instead of two different colors, but I am very pleased with these. I've had them for a year, and no drift on this new set yet. I am considering maybe a new set with different colors!
