We also stock games for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, Wii and Nintendo DS, so you should find something for just about any taste.
They came with controller drift which is quite annoying when you’re playing video games but it’s easy enough to get used to. Good condition boxes, come with controller straps and very appealing colours.
hey arrived today and i’m so happy with them! they look just as good as i hoped they would. my only complaint is that they aren’t the cheapest, but if you’re needing another pair of joycons i’d highly recommend them.
They look excellent on the switch. The buttons have that snappy sound while pressing, and the sticks feel soft to touch and not stiff at all, a problem with most third party controllers. Excellent product as always.
As every switch user my original joycons ended up with the dreaded drift. So I decided to treat myself to a new pair and its a complete gamer changer I love them. The colour is a bonus as well
Original joycon had stuck drift so bought this as a replacement and does the job perfectly. No issues, just a shame to pay such a steep price for such a small controlle
These are the genuine ones, as i had to replace the original ones, which started drifting on one pad, while i realise i could have bought a sensor replacement kit, which is almost as much as a new pair of joycons.
Decided to just buy some one ones. Maybe sometime i will get a sensor kit for the old ones, when the price is more reasonable.

These aren’t cheap – you can pick up other non-Nintendo Switch controllers for much less, but being Nintendo you know they will work with your Switch. Quality appears very good and they are colourful enough to reduce the chance of them getting lost!
So the red controller just stopped working, don’t know if this is a marketing ploy by Nintendo so people have to splash out on replacements, as we’ve only had it since Christmas, but after trying everything to make it work, reluctantly ordered a new one yesterday. Delighted to say not only did it arrive extremely fast, it works perfectly.
Fingers crossed it lasts longer than 6 months this time!!
My left joycon stopped working so I purchased this to replace it, worked straight away thankfully. I got this official Nintendo one as there were mixed reviews for the knock-offs but I’d rather pay the extra to know the product will last.
Bought for use while my original left Joy-Con was sent in for its analogue stick to be repaired and the rail to be replaced, as wasn’t sure how long it would take, and as I normally play in handheld mode I thought I’d get another pair to tide me over.
Comparing these to my 2017 Switch original Joy-Cons I think Nintendo have reduced the amount of flex in the rails when holding they seem to be a lot tighter on the console.
Hasn’t disconnected once from my console in handheld mode.
The colours seem to be slightly different from their opposite side same colour that came bundled with the console, though this may slightly be due to age of my originals.
Seem to be more robust.
Can’t go wrong with genuine Joy-Cons plus can send them into Nintendo for repairs.
Great replacement worked straight out of box no syncing needed works perfect. Hopefully no more drifting now they seem to have solved the issues with manufacturing.
I bought these initially as a replacement for my current ones which were suffering from Drifting. Whilst they were being sent out for repair (for free via Nintendo’s helpful services, they’re now officially offering this free service), I spotted these on the marketplace and snagged them for a competitive price and I am so pleased with them.
The colours are beautiful, and when latched onto my very old Switch, it just freshens everything up. My old controllers feel so smooth compared to the new-ness of this type of plastic, it has a rough untouched feeling towards it.
Anyway these controllers have been working perfectly. It’s unique colours makes it easy to recognise when I bring them to my friends.
TIP: I use to stick a few tiny stickers just to tell them apart otherwise! If you find this tip helpful, I’d be appreciative if you could feel free to express it!
These are well worth the extra money slotted them straight into my switch with no problem my switch did everything and even showed me the colours of them couldn’t be easie
Got a great deal on these a while back. They are quite expensive to buy in shops. Price seems to go up and down. When sons switch controllers broke we needed a replacement while they were getting fixed. They are genuine Nintendo. Colour bit more illumines than the photo.
All features packed in, nothing omitted (as happens on some third party options, like NFC, HD rumble etc).
Only issue, if you play and use these alot, they will eventually drift (i.e. Your directional sticks will wear, and make your character move on screen when you’re not touching the controller). But 90% of people won’t use their joycons enough to see it.
I give these 5 stars as they are new and working, but I have had to order these due to my existing ones coming down with the drifting issue. Disappointed that Nintendo has not done anything to fix this issue from happening so minus one star.
I have been looking for a pair of joy cons for my switch as mine haven’t been working properly since it’s second hand. These have been working perfectly and there’s no drift to them at all. They work great. I totally recommend them

Thank goodness for buying these separately! My sons Switch controllers had stopped working properly and I was worried I’d either have to replace the whole thing or pay for it to be repaired. Replacing these solved the problem instantly.
This is our second set of replacement joy cons that we’ve had to buy for our switch.
The drift issue is real, it’s annoying and it feels like Nintendo treat these controllers as consumable items because they can be detached from the console and easily replaced… at least, at a cost.
It’s cheaper to buy the extended warranty at check out when offered, I feel we’ll eventually need to get a replacement set again.
Great price, for aa genuine product i had this on offer, work as expected great spare set. Bought as a spare , so daily used at the moment, was on offer at time of purchase.

Colours are so pretty, very easy to use but have to buy a charger separately

I recently ordered a set of purple and orange joycons and they don’t disappoint. The delivery was insanely quick even without prime!
Great replacement worked straight out of box no syncing needed works perfect. Hopefully no more drifting now they seem to have solved the issues with manufacturing.
These remotes are high quality originals. Only problem is they all seem to get stick drift after a bit of use. Annoying for the price they cost.

They were quite good and smooth joystick and button function. Nothing too special about them though.
i broke my prevoiuse ones so i bought new ones these are so good no stick drift aswell :))-

These Nintendo Joy-cons are the real deal. They work. But are too expensive for an item that wears out far too quickly. Shame on you Nintendo !
Don’t buy the Non-Nintendo copies. They are a waste of time.

These were bought as a gift, a bit pricey and they don’t come with a controller dock (can buy these elsewhere/argos/amazon etc.
Bought as a gift and recipient was happy. They look nice!
