    Had to buy a new set because my old ones started to drift. Works well, does what it's supposed to do. No issues at all!

    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.

    I know that some people aren’t games of the joy cons, but I love them. Whether you’re playing by yourself or with a friend for some games that option is tight. I’m glad Nintendo is not stagnant with controllers. Sure the Xbox or ps4 controllers are good, but sometimes some bit of experimentation is necessary!

    Bought to have 4 players for mario kart. They make a perfect pair for each of my kid's favorite colors. Like all Nintendo products, great quality. Buttons and analog controls are responsive and provide a pleasant click. They are, unfortunately, quite expensive.

    These aren't my favorite controllers, but they get the job done and they are unique to the system. I'm learning to use them, but I prefer the classic Nintendo 64 feel.

    Open box joy cons at a great price, took a chance, 100% satisfied. Not a mark on them, work perfectly. Interestingly, the colors are switched from the ones that came with the console, so now i have paired colors!

    I bought a 3rd party controller to play with my little brother but when I tried playing with his original Nintendo controllers I realized nothing compares to how the original handles. So I had to get myself a pair. Plus this color is so cool

    I got these Joy-Cons to both add another player and to 'switch' up how my controllers look from time to time. I love the feel that any Joy-Con has and these vibrant colors add another level to the console. I would 100% recommend this pair of colors or any other that better suit the player's preference!

    I purchased these controllers so I could play Super Mario Party with my wife and 2 kids. Now my daughter has her own pink controller and my son has his own green one. They are so excited every time I give it to them, makes the purchase totally worth it. Also it was super easy to synch them to my Switch.

    I was having problems with original control, nintendo will fix it since its still under warranty, had to get a new one while i get the other one back, i think controls are too expensive and don't even include the piece in the middle to hold it as one, i don't blame Best Buy, the price is the same everywhere
