    They are joy cons. They do joy con stuff. They work. But save yourself some cash and go buy the Japanese or Hong Kong versions on eBay or something. They do joycon stuff and are 40-50 bucks

    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.

    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!

    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

    Geek Squad recommended new joy cons to fix our Nintendo Switch and it worked! So glad we didn't have to replace the entire console.

    Got 2 Nintendo Switch Wireless Controllers (one green and pink, one blue and yellow) so now there's no question as to whose is whose. They were thrilled and with the added charging station I think grandma might have even out done Santa. Happy grandkids, happy grandma!

    Multiple ways to play, docked into the switch itself, with the holder that looks like a dog, or one in each hand separately. At first they seem like they'll be too small but I haven't had an issue using them, no cramping or anything even after (probably) 6 hours straight. Definitely a great feature of the Switch.

    Small size is awkward at first if you're used to other systems, but the unique design is very handy once you're used to it.

    They don't last long. Get warranty if possible.

    The Nintendo switch controllers are probably the cheapest material and the most expensive controller i ever owned in my life. i had to get new controller very 4-6month and at over $69.99 each. If you have this same issue, Get the warranty. Learned the hard way. Horrible duration for controllers.

    Best 2 pack set controller

    I've always been hesitant to buy a 3rd and 4th controller for any console because of the price. Nintendo makes it easier to do local 4 player/party gameplay with a pair of joy-cons! This has been enjoyed the past 2-3 weeks and it was just for 1 game, many more coming as soon as we beat the current one.

    I like having extra controllers because when I get together with my whole family we can each have a different color. They work great and haven’t had any issues.

    Good pair of joycons with no drift issues. The pink is pretty dark though, you'd think it was just red unless you have another red one next to it.
