    Son loves these but the controllers seems to start drifting after a while. That is sad cause these controllers are not cheap. Nee to bring price down if having to purchase often. But that’s Nintendo and I let them know too. But the service was good with Best Buy often purchase from you. Keep up good work..

    If you haven’t held them, the joy cons are a controller(s) that have a really solid feel. The two shoulder buttons can be tricky for my larger fingers sometimes but it’s not too bad. I love the clicky buttons, they have great tactile feedback. The battery life is what it is. I will say that these have survived a couple drops and still work great.

    The neon joy cons are beautiful! They add the perfect touch of color to the Nintendo Switch! They are small but manageable. I use mine connected to the Switch and they work great!

    Pricey Tech

    Don’t get me wrong, I actually enjoy the Joycons. I think Nintendo struck gold when they created them, along with the Switch. But the amount of tech inside them causes them to be quite pricey. And mine only lasted two years before the left control stick started drifting - hence why I bought a replacement pair. I also wish they came in different colors (more variety) or that the red and blue options weren’t neon. (Online it doesn’t look so bad - in person it’s really noticeable)

    I bought these to play with friends but due to covid-19 thats not gonna happen for a while. On the plus side I now have more than enough controllers for when everything goes back to normal. I also got these on the chance that my original controllers catch the drift. You never know and I got the warranty just in case.

    Of course, brand new they work like a charm. These were replacements of the original controllers because the originals started drifting and I was afraid to fix them on my own and through nintendo, well, it wasn't economically wise to get them repaired when the cost was almost the same as new ones. So, hoping these will work for years to come w/o problems.

    At first I thought these were the same colors as the switch ones, which they are, but on different controllers. With these, you can have a set of full red or full blue controllers. Being one for symmetry I hated that the colors were different and this satisfies this need. Nice little surprise. Hope they do this will all other color schemes.
