I really appreciate that you can buy a single joy on instead of having to buy the pair. Everything is working great and if my son breaks the other joy con then I know where I’ll buy it from.

Not much needs to be said here! Bought an extra joy con and it works great. Can’t wait for somebody else to throw it across the room during Mario Kart.

I was glad to see you could buy this separate from the Left one; I was afraid I needed to buy a pair when the Right one stopped working.

Great additional controller. This controller is exactly like the ones that come with the Nintendo Switch. Works great. I had to look online to see how to connect it.

"It is the same as any other joycon", my son said. A little pricey but cheaper than buying two, since we only needed one.

Yes, they begin to drift, but Nintendo fixes/replaces them without any hassle when you contact support, without needing to show a receipt/date of purchase.
I had to replace mine after a child dropped the Switch and it landed on the Joycon. It tore apart.

Many will agree that buying $80 joy-cons when only needing the right or left isn't worth it. A very convenient accessory when in need of replacing right joy-cons.

Works well as expected. Not extremely pricey for an original joy con but it’s not cheap either. Just glad it’s not more expensive than it is.
