    Amazing designs on the controllers. The wrist straps are very unique. Great for anyone looking to set their switch apart from others.

    They look great and have great battery life. They also seem to be very durable and the special designs really pop out on these controllers.

    In the case that you might not have heard, the Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons (controllers that look like these ones which attach to the console itself) have a tendency of "drifting" after some time of usage. Drifting means that the control sticks are sensing that you are moving them into a direction when you are not even touching them. Imagine playing a game and the character you have starts moving into a random direction without you even controlling that. You can also test this by going on the Settings where there is an option for Controllers to calibrate the control sticks. I bring this up because it is a big variable on purchasing Joy-Cons. They are expensive, and knowing that they might "Drift" over time can be a reason to not buy them and instead buy a more traditional controller like the Pro Controller or cheaper USB controllers. The big selling point on this particular set of Joy-Cons is its design. Sure, it is a Skyward Sword Edition, but it really applies to any main Zelda Game where the Master Sword and the Hylian Shield appear. And, if you are a Zelda fan, these do really change the Switch appearance really nicely. At the very least, you will get a collectors item even if it begins to "Drift".

    I’m so glad I was able to pick these up here at Best Buy, since preorders for these sold out quick. For any Zelda fan, these are a must buy!

    Bought these new joy cons to replace old Switch joy cons with drift. So far they work well! I like the look of the Skyward Sword edition.

    These are easy to connect and unique from the regular controllers. Pricing was the same as regular joy cons—all the more worth it.

    The details on these joy cons are so cool. Besides it being a regular joy con it's totally worth the mark up for the design.

    My original joycon that came with my Switch ended up getting the drift issue around the end of 2020 and throughout 2021 it just gotten worse. I got lucky to find this guys in stock in store. The color and design are really well done worth to have for any Zelda fan. Sadly this guys are built like the other joycons so drift at some point will happen. One thing I noted that when attached to the console it is a very firm and stable attachment compare to the original that came with the console.
