Great to have
Love these, they do what they’re designed for. When I bought my Nintendo Switch, the left controller stopped working. So I ordered these and they are great.
Great service
We bought these joy cons as the original ones with my sons switch had started drifting. They arrived well within the allotted week. We love the bright colours of this pair too!!
Works well
Bought a couple of months ago to replace a broken controller – still works absolutely fine. Need to replace the other one now though as thats going!
Worked perfectly.
Worked straight away when attached to my sons switch. Have tried cheaper ones and have realised sometimes you just have to pay for the proper thing if you want the proper results. Still think they’re expensive for what they are, but that’s nintendo for you.

Nintendo 'non existent drift' problem replacements
Got them to replace the drift issue. This is my 4th set since the switch came out (got it at launch) apparently they have sneaked out improved versions with the new zelda official ones. Just admit you have a faulty design and own it nintendo, I’ve now spent more on joycons than buying a switch lite. 4 stars as the service from amazon was excellent but the product is not built to last (2-3* for the product)

Good quality and vibrant colours.
Great controllers as expected. Comfortable to hold, though quite small for adult hands. Bright colours and come with the straps too. Would recommend
Great produc
Bought these as previous controllers started drifting and sticking. I have seen cheaper ones but they are not nintendo and I’m not so up on tech and thought they could be difficult to connect. I was dreading connecting these but had no problems whatsoever. Easy. Now have a happy 10 year old.
Nice change!
The colours are really vibrant and pooing, especially next to my camo dbrand skin almost like the neon blue and neon yellow make the green of my camo skin. I will be back to adjust if I get joycon drift again.
Great product.
These controllers are very great if you want another pair to go with your Nintendo Switch. They are easy to manage. Plus, they come with controller straps if you are doing something with a lot of movement. Highly recommend!
Essential but pricey
It would be five stars but the price Nintendo charge for these is extortionate.
Arrived quickly
Good as a new joy con could be.
Nintendo had legal problems about these joy-con.
Apparently they were easy to break so you have to buy a new one and the price is more expensive then a game itself.
My old ones are still both working after 1 year (little bit more loose the left one now), I bought them just for spare.
Anyway if you have a broken one, Nintendo should fix it for free.

Works grea
The joy-con works perfectly and was really easy to connect. I’ve knocked a star off because my old joy-con started drifting pretty quickly, and I know a lot of switch owners have had the same issue.
It does work like the 1 that comes with it.
I have read reviews that they don’t last long but it’s too early to tell at the moment. It connected straight away and works exactly the same as the original stick that came with it. From what I have read elsewhere it is a common problem the left joy con fails quite fast so I’m not sure why nintendo think it’s acceptable to charge these prices.
Replacement for the original dreaded joy con drif
Suffered the dreaded joy con drift and bought this joy con whilst the drifting one was sent to Nintendo for repair
Great purchase and worked well. Brighter than the photo and looks great with the left purple joycon from the purple and orange se
Great value
I had to get a new left joy con because it stopped working so I decide to just get the set I’m really in love with them and the color is amazing very vibra

It works (for now)
Everybody knows about Joycon drift. My original controller started drifting and it made game play really difficult and awful. This controller obviously works at the moment and has improved game play amazingly, but I don’t know how long it will last and I don’t really want to keep buying new controllers. I hope Nintendo solves this issue soon.
Perfect replacement for the Nintendo Switch if you have Joy-Con issues
I think that 60 or whatever for fixing the nightmare Joy-Cons is something that anyone is going to be happy spending.
I bought these for my friend as her Switch was playing up – and she is super happy with these (plus they look great!!!)
It’s a shame that these are something that will break over time but the replacements are cheap enough and they are the genuine ones.
I’d recommend to anyone.

Works Well For Now
I recently bought a switch from amazon and the joy cons stopped working. Amazon refunded me for them and I got these. They work well so far, but I know everyone has been having issues with nintendos joycons

Joy cons best to buy
I got a pair of joycons a few weeks ago that were styled N64 … They were 40 quid and honestly .. they felt terrible and cheap the Nintendo products feel as you’d expect… Slim. Yh switch always feels better with Nintendo products! It’s a fact . These joyscons were as described and send very quickly … Also the blue and yellow works …
Great colours
Needed extra joy cons for 4 player games, these are great! Only had grey before so chose something colourful. Lovely and bright and now the kids have their ‘own’ colour.
Perfect additio
Such a great addition to our switch! With having to be home together without our family this Christmas we thought we would purchase these joy-cons….they are fab…vibrant colours and have be used daily!
Love the colours!
I bought this product to make my switch stand kit from the rest of my family and I love the bright Green & Pink! The pink doesn’t photograph quite as vibrant as it is in real life, it is slightly limitation to the original red one, but it still stands out enough for me! They feel slightly more matte than the original joy-cons which I prefer too! They work perfectly.
Drif
I got these because I had no way to prove my purchase of the old ones to get them fixed. However I had barely had these for a week before the left controller started drifting. It was even worse than the old one; I could not play any of my games, especially Animal Crossing, and therefore had to go back to using the old one where the drift is manageable
Work perfectly and great price for used Joy Cons
Work perfectly. Connected up and let charge up and they worked as soon as I started up the Switch. Tested them wireless too and work as they should. Great value.
Great switch controllers, is the bright neon pink and electric green. Feel great to use, just like the set that come with the console.
A must for those big party games!

Nintendo doing what they do best - eventually.
Bough as a spare set of Joy-Cons for our household as we have 2 switches and do a fair bit of multiplayer:
They are Exactly what you expect when buying First Party controllers from Nintendo – hopefully the drift problem has been resolved.
As an additional bonus; the Colour of both controllers is very eyecatching, and unique compared to the colours that are shipped with the console.
A Great Pai
These work just how you expect then to work! Needed some extra controllers for multiplayer, bought the purple and orange and have to admit, the picture on the package doesn’t compare to how wonderful and vibrant these colour are!! I also find the price justified, I’ve seen each controller sold individually in my area so getting two for the same price for one is a bargin for me!

Does what it says on the ti
These arrived around 4 months ago so I’ve had a good amount of time on them. High quality controllers.
You may pay less for third party, but you won’t get the quality of these with that.

Purple Perfectio
I really like the fact that you can buy the Joy-Cons in different colour ways. I have paired the purple one with my pink Joy-Con from another set and they look great together. 1 star off for the price – I do think they are a tad expensive. I have experienced no ‘drift’ issues with this set.

Amazing!
They’re amazing! The blue and red joycons came with my switch, I brought about 2 years ago. The pink and green joycons are the ones I brought for 60. Which is better than any shop near me can offer.
Unlike the original blue and red cons, the pink and green controllers are matt, and they’re so much better. They feel much more sturdy, and they look sleek compared to the originals.
They may appear dead (drained of power) at first, but slot them into the switch, and they connect instantly, with the cons about half charged.
Overall, really happy!

One of the better colour combos (blue/yellow)
This is the second set of joy cons I’ve bought – the first being the orange/purple set. What can I say, these are minty fresh and look great. Touch wood, I’ve never had joy con drift. But I tend to use a Pro controller the most. I wish these were a bit cheaper, 60-65 is a lot.

birthday surprise ruined
eceived my order today ,brilliant next day delivery, however it was a present for my grandsons birthday, who i was looking after today,asked alexa why light flashing and said parcel will be delivered today, however rather than stopping there went on to say what was in parcel so gutted as granson heard,future reference do you need to say whats in parcel?
Working perfectly
Bought these to replace my original drifting pair. The colours were swapped from my original Switch which I didn’t even notice until someone else pointed it out.
Whether or not these will also suffer from drift, who knows. For the last month or so though they’ve been fine and had a decent amount of use.

Snazzy
Bought these to replace my origional joy cons as the movement stick seemed to get stuck and my characters kept moving long after I had taken.my hand away. Love these colours and have made my switch look new and can play my games now without inadvertently walking off cliffs

A little overpriced
They’re just regular Nintendo switch joy-cons, can’t really say any more than that. So it would be 5* for quality.
However I’m giving 4* since I think they’re overpriced, but you’re not going to find them cheaper as obviously only Nintendo makes these.
I like the product but I'm a little sore about how much this cost me
I hate that I have to pay this price for Switch controllers but they do work very well. Would be nice if Nintendo included a controller grip with these at it would have cost them pennies to do but it’s going to cost me a tenner to but one.

Additional controllers important for more than 2 players
If you’re playing on the Switch and you want to be able to play with more than 2 players for the games that support it, this is a must. They are also interchangeable with the original ones, so you can give your Switch, a “switch up” in looks.

Bright!
Expensive but necessary. Really bright vivid coloured. My son was made up with these. I don’t find the controllers however in the past to be greatly effective for very long. Hoping these do better.
Solid build
Bought to replace original V1 Joycons which suffered from awful drift (even after replacing analogue sticks. Deicided that as its been over 3 years since I got the switch then even though they’re expensive replacements were needed. Quick well packaged delivery, instant connection, colours very nice and not too ostentatious. My boy loves them! He uses them for hours every day and they’re holding up well so far.

My favourite colour combo
I bought these after the joy-cons which came with my original Switch started to drift. I’ve given them 5 stars for now since I’ve been using them pretty constantly and they haven’t started to drift yet, but I’ll come back and change this if they ever do.
Aside from that, this is my favourite colour combo for joy-cons. The colours are so bright and vibrant.

perfec
After previous issue of waiting 2 months for the same item I thought I would try again and came with 2 days.
works great, genuine parts and quality.
kids happy more of us can play together on their fave games
Nintendo controller - perfect.
Joy cons are working brilliantly, the range is good and battery life is excellent. Really one of the best controllers available, especially when playing with family and friends. The colours look awesome although I wish I had chosen the yellow ones now 🙂

Really bright!
Please note that when they state Neon Orange they really mean it! The pictures make it look like a more muted orange but the Joycons are rather bright!
Really nice pair though, the colours are vibrant and after my original pair deteriorated over the last few months (ending with severe joycon drift) I was due an upgrade. I had used them for a couple of years though and have around 1,000 hours of gameplay logged so they lasted pretty well.
These new Joycons feel great, and look great. So I hope to get a couple of years use out of them.
As Expected
Although I think these are quite pricey for what they are we’ve never had a problem with the original joy cons that came with the console but have gone through 4 cheaper wired controllers that have all developed faults. Hopefully these will last as well as the first pair that are still going strong 18 months down the road. Daughter loves the colours more than the blue/red set.

Costly Multiplaye
Product arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I purchased these as a backup set for when my other Joycons are charging or when I want to have 4-player co-op.
I struggle to see how Switch Joycons are value for money considering what they are. I suppose comparitively, controllers for other consoles sell at roughly 40 and these translate to 2 controllers if used singularly.
They work well enough so far, haven’t had any issues with drift. The battery life could stand to be a little longer but then again modern technology doesn’t tend to have great battery span.
You could probably get a knock off set for much cheaper than this but I can’t say how well they would hold up. Nintendo items do hold their value well so you could easily sell these in a few years for 30-40 if kept in good condition.

Decent controllers
Needed an extra pair so I could play with family. These do the job but are expensive (as is everything to do with the Switch) and I’m not sure how long they will last as my original pair starting making squeaks and clicks when moving the sticks after only a couple of weeks. Like these colour options though!

Great controllers
I was looking at purchasing some additional controllers for my Nintendo switch for months, but found it difficult to justify because of the expensive price. I finally found these, and they were a reasonable price so I made the purchase. I’ve had them for a couple of months now, and they seem to work exactly the same as my original ones that came with my switch. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for additional controllers.

Love the different colours
Couldn’t find these colours (blue and yellow) in many shops so brought from amazon – wanted something a bit different to the original colours
genuine joy-con and work perfectly
great to have another pair for when the battery runs out or having friends over.

Nice neon controllers
With orange being my favourite colour, I had to get these controllers for my switch! The colours are bright and the orange and purple work really well today! I have had no issues with the controllers and they are made really well!

Ideal
These Joy Cons are really pretty, and mean we can alternate with different colours for our Switch. They also worked perfectly after just an hour or so of charging and don’t lose battery too quickly. My only comment would be on the price, as they are a bit expensive. That being said, I do imagine we’ll get a lot of use out of them

Bit expensive honestly
I bought these for my boyfriend after the pair of joycons that came with his switch broke. Slightly annoying to charge so much for something that breaks so easily and so few people know how to repair. I still think the switch is a brilliant console though and I love the colours of these joycons.
Swish and Flick
I love these colours, I got them so I could play with a few more friends in group games. They work great, and they look great – and it’s for the best because my Neon Blue one has gone a bit dodgy since.
Price is a little high but I guess controllers normally are around that ballpark figure.
Received my Joy Cons (purple & Orange) today and they look fantastic!
They are a little pricey but well worth the look. My Switch now has a touch of colour.
Packaging 2nd to non. I paid for quick delivery and they came as quick as possible…great service!

Love the colour scheme and they seem perfect so far.
I wanted a second set of Joy Cons and decided to get these as soon as I saw them on pre order….
They look fantastic, great colours and they have performed perfectly so far, I haven’t taken them off the Switch since they arrived and don’t think they’ll be coming off it anytime soon, the original grey set have now become my back up pair or for use on the grip at home when my Pro Controller needs a charge.
Love the colour scheme and somehow they seem more accurate and responsive than the original set that came with the console so definitely all good, 5 stars.

*UPDATE* 5 -> 4 Stars
Quite quickly, I noticed a loud ‘spring sound’ whenever I moved the joystick on the right joy-con. After a few days, Amazon promptly issued a replacement, which has been great so far. From reading in forums relating to the same issue, it seems Nintendo’s quality control is in serious need of review…
*ORIGINAL*
I’ll keep it brief:
The Joy-Cons are great – better than the ones that came with my Switch, which have a slight wobble when attached to the console.
The colour scheme is great and suits my personal preference.

Good product, greatly overpriced. #Nintendo
They work as expected. This is a lot of money for two chunks of plastic with a few buttons included, though. I bought this set because ONE of my joycons broke, and unfortunately Nintendo don’t sell these separately.
If only one of yours needs replacing and you don’t mind preowned electronics just pick up a second hand one from Ebay or a shop, I only bought a brand new pair because I couldn’t get past not knowing if a preowned joycon has been in some kid’s mouth or something gross like that.
Just to note that these are the same as the standard ones that come with every console.
The joy-cons are very space economic making it easy enough to carry them in a travel bag and, even though they are small, they are still easy to use with some great motion sensors.
No problem recommending them so far.

Brand new, nowadays these controllers cost a lot of money but i like these controllers because of the two different colours. I wish the price for the controllers were 40 pounds and not 64.99 otherwise i have no problems with this controller and the design.

The product is great! Although in the descripion you need to write that it comes with 2 joy-con straps as I had bought them separately, as it doesn’t say that it does come with the controllers.
So anyone buying these controllers don’t buy the straps as it comes with the controllers too. Unless you do want different colours as these come with plain black straps.

The colour of the two controllers are fantastic but maybe just a tad bit of a deeper pink/green than the Pro Controller of the same colour scheme. I picked these up after my original left joy-con was beginning to slide out of the mechanism without pressing the release button.
The price is quite steep compared to Xbox One & PS4 controllers, which can be found for around 30 – 50 depending on where you look new at the time of writing, but they do contain all the features of the joy-cons that come packed in the box – including Amiibo, IR and gyro functions. They come with great battery life and when connected to the dock will charge alongside the Switch itself.
My only one recommendation would be to grab a Pro Controller for around 55 (again at time of writing) if you’re looking for something a little bit more familiar to controllers of other consoles. Unless you want 4 player co-op with these two additional joy-cons.
Perfect item, but a tad expensive!
Very expensive… but I can’t help loving the Joy Con’s, and a spare set is always handy. Little tip for those who are idiots like me, the way to remove the supplied grip is by using the little white button on the bottom as opposed to pushing in the release button at the top (i.e. the one you use to release from the Switch).
4 stars only due to how ridiculously expensive these are, however, Amazon should get 5 stars for sorting out the issue I had with my first set. Basically, even though I updated them the right Joy Con (the Pink one) didn’t work properly when it wasn’t connected directly to the Switch. However, this being Amazon, I had no issues returning them and the replacement was delivered the next day, before my return was collected. If only Customer Service was this good everywhere!
Great all round!
I bought these joy-cons so I had extra controllers if I happened to have friends or family wanting to play as well. The joy-cons arrived a day earlier then expected! They work and look great!, very colourful to go along with the blue and red joy-con. Delivery was spot on, no damage at all. So like the title says this was great all round!
Really great pair of Joy Cons in a great colour choice! If you have the other coloured Joy Cons, this makes for a headache of colours! Very easy to use and well packaged. Essential for playing with more than 2 players on your Switch. Shame the price is so high for these though (over 60 currently), could do with being about 20 cheaper but that’s life.

Love the colour of these joycons much like the original blue and red, very vibrant they standout and feel obviously like the originals. I will say this the joycons do start to hurt your hands after long use so I would recommend picking up a pro controller if you have the extra cash it would be a good investment. Course if your using your switch in handheld or giving these to someone with small hands or of a younger age you’ll be fine. A good purchase either way you won’t be disappointed.

I will say this the joycons do start to hurt your hands after long use so I would recommend picking up a pro controller if you have the extra cash it would be a good investment.

They work well. I don’t appreciate how costly the joy cons are in all honesty, each one being around the same price as the excellent Xbox One controller but they do have wii like functionality (as I found out through 1-2 switch) so the cost may be warranted (still not sure). But all in all, the buttons are clicky which i love, the colours are very vibrant and neon, they remind of the vibrant colours found on sour candies. Also, there are no other options if you want to play 4 player on Mario Kart at home so I guess I had no alternatives to this expensive product anyway. I’m not too mad though, the controllers are good and just like the ones you would have received when you bought the switch itself. At least they’re cheaper than the custom made joy-cons I see some enthusiasts getting which seems absurd to me. I can’t rate the product down because of the price due to the fact it’s build quality and feel is still excellent so I give it 5 stars.
This Joy-Con pair completes me. Makes me whole. I didn’t know what I was missing in my life; religion, a hobby – money. I tried it all, but nothing satisfied the enternal darkness that consumed me. Nothing gave meaning to my pointless and astronomically brief life.
Then I found these, or rather they found me, and everything changed. They spoke to me, to the very core of my being. And the night that followed our brief encounter they called my name, or rather my Nintendo Switch nickname, which woke me up – spiritually. So I placed the order and received the meaning of my life in the mail only days later.
And I can honestly say that everything has since changed on both sides of my Switch. Green and Pink, neon. Needless to say, the vast void, the profound emptiness is now a thing of the past.
My life is again filled with purpose and joy.
