    Bought these as a second set to replace original ones that had a drifting problem. Good color. Nintendo is always fun. But be careful Joy-Cons sometimes suffer from drifting.

    Way too expensive for what they are, and plagued with software and hardware bugs. Recalibrating them from the main menu sometimes works, but sometimes they just quit working correctly. I bought these to replace the stock ones that got stuck with one of the sticks always pushing "up". It's also annoying not having a proper d-pad. I understand why they had to do it this way, but it makes certain games really difficult.

    Great controllers and the kids love them when paired with games like bowling or other sport type games. They are sturdy and charge fairly quickly. They were easy to pair to the Nintendo Switch

    I have both a Nintendo joycon and a pro controller. I really enjoy the joycon as it can be split into two seperate controllers and be used by two seperate people, I think its extremely innovative. The rumble features in my opinion are on par with Sony and I have found the motion controllers to be very cool myself. However, buyers should be aware this product does not come with a grip (essentially the piece that holds the two joycon in one controller frame). It's just the two individual pieces not attached. The grip is approximately an extra 15 bucks. In addition these controllers are likely in addition to the pair that comes with the switch. These controllers do need to charge and the only way to do so is to have them attached to the switch console itself, which means you cant also charge the joycon that came boxed with the switch at the same time without another product. If you're going to buy the extra joycon I would recommend either a charging grip (which can be plugged in via USB- c to a wall charger or a charge station. I also recommend if you play more solo and less with friends to check out the Nintendo switch pro controller. This feels similiar to an xbox 360 controller and can also charge independently with a USB - c cable.

    Not much to say here. The Joy-Cons work, they are just as functional as the ones that came with the switch. I like the fact that they are in a different color.
