Nintendo Joy-Con (L/R) - Neon Red/Neon Blue

Picked this up as a replacement for an older Joy-Con, and it’s been exactly what I needed. Works just like the original with no issues. Setup & pairing: Connected to the Switch quickly and easily. No complicated setup — synced right away and was ready to use. Performance: Buttons are responsive, joystick feels smooth, and everything works as expected during gameplay. No lag or connectivity issues so far. Fit & feel: Feels identical to the original Joy-Con. Same size, weight, and overall feel in hand, so there’s no adjustment needed. Battery life: Holds a charge well and lasts through multiple gaming sessions without needing frequent recharging. What I like from a practical standpoint: • Easy replacement without any hassle • Same performance as original controller • Good option if you need a quick fix or extra controller Durability: Holding up well so far with regular use. No issues with buttons or joystick wear. Minor downside: Like most Joy-Cons, long-term heavy use can eventually lead to wear (common across all of them), but no issues so far. 2-month update: Still working perfectly. No drift or performance issues. Bottom line: If you need a replacement or extra Joy-Con, this is an easy recommendation. Simple, reliable, and works exactly as expected.

Worked great to replace controller that was damaged.

TLDR: Fun, and colorful, yet mature, and muted. These are mostly neutral colors that are most reminiscent of the Animal Crossing color palette. As an example, I’m an average guy and I really love these colors, they look even better in person. If you resonate with these colors whatsoever, and you want or need some new Joycons, then I highly recommend the two latest sets of these pastel colored Joycons. Enjoy! I didn’t need these, but the colors were just too cute for me to pass up. These pastel colors have a similar look and feel to the Animal Crossing matte/pastel green & blue colors. For those who are unfamiliar, those are the colors that are most associated with the limited edition Animal Crossing themed Nintendo Switch (pre OLED model.) If you’re a fan of that color palette, then you’ll definitely love these. To be honest, being a fan of Animal Crossing definitely influenced my perception of these colors. But they really do look great on my solid white OLED model, plus it never hurts to have some extra Joycons. If you’re a fan of cute colors, Animal Crossing-esc colors, or muted pastel colors; and you’re in the market for new Joycons, then I highly recommend both sets of these new pastel colors. Even if you don’t need new Joycons, but maybe you want to personalize your Switch (like myself) then I still highly recommend them. Just as an example: I’m an average guy, and I still love these pastel colors. I do like cute things to an extent though. (I blame Animal Crossing, K-On!, Lucky Star, and Doki Doki Literature Club!) The pastel colors add character to my Switch, but without coming across as too childish, loud, or obnoxious; such as with the Splatoon 2 color themed Joycons (bright green/hot pink.) Those are cool in their own way, but definitely a little too loud for my tastes. As an adult, I’d say (tone wise) these have a coolness to them that makes them feel colorful and fun, yet mature, and muted; in other words: I’m not embarrassed to be seen with these pastel colors in public. While these pastel colors may initially come across to some as being a predominantly feminine color palette, they honestly feel pretty neutral. I’d recommend these pastel color sets over all the others. PS: The yellow/pink pastel Joycons are super cute too. The pastel green from this set, and the pastel pink from the other set both look great together. The green and pink are like Splatoon 2 colors, but not nearly as neon, or obnoxious.

Beautiful color. Has been holding up well. No drift so far.

EDIT 2: Almost 2 full years after purchase, they are still working great with no sign of drift. I highly recommend these. The only minor issue is that the soft material on top of the joysticks has begun to wear/get a bit misshapen, but that can probably be prevented or mitigated with some good thumb grips (I used some for a while but the ones I had were poor quality and kept falling off, thus I abandoned them). EDIT: As of 7/14/24, they are still working wonderfully. I ordered these joy cons because the joysticks on the other 3 pairs I had were all drifting to the point of being unable to play anything. One was the original set that came with the console, and the other two were 3rd party ones I’d already “fixed” multiple times. Soooo I was getting kinda desperate at that point. I was on the fence for a bit about whether to try a different 3rd party brand, or try the Nintendo ones. Most reviews on so many different sets were so mixed, which didn’t help. Finally I ended up going with these from Nintendo. I have a chronic illness, and most days I usually do at least a couple hours of gaming on my Switch. Some days I’ll go longer if I’m having a bad day symptom-wise. I’d estimate that half of the time, I’m playing handheld with these joy cons (if I’m playing docked, I use my pro controller). These arrived on April 8th or 9th, and it’s currently September 30th - a little under 6 months. Doing some very rough math, I’d guess I’ve played on these joy cons a minimum of 350-400 hours, but it may be more like 500. So far, no drift. KNOCK ON WOOD. If or when it does happen, I’ll try to remember to update this. As of now, I would recommend these. I’m not an expert, but my biggest tip with these or any joy cons is to just make sure you’re not leaving them around to gather dust/tiny crumbs/etc especially around the base of the joysticks. In my own experience that seems to be a big trigger for the drifting (at least with 3rd party sets).

Like so many others, Switch 1 Joy Cons eventually suffer from drift. After having the original Joy Cons for 6+ years, that started happening so rather than spend $90 to replace two of them, I decided to just replace the one that was drifting as that is actually cheaper. I rank it as 4 stars because I know this one will also some day suffer from drift.

Super cute love them. We’ve used them a couple times already no issues thus far highly recommend if you’re looking for some cute colored remotes.

I really like joycons I like the size they are easy to use comfortable and I know they are expensive but they are worth it for most people like me who like moving while gaming and not having to hold them together like a pro controller but originaly they did have drift and a sticky button but they were able to give me a replacement instantly no questions asked and these ones are perfect

Product was delivered earlier than expected date and best price I can find for it

Product arrived with a hole in the item box itself (the shipping box was intact), the papers inside is crumbled in the middle. Obviously this item has been used, I paid almost 400sr, the price for a new Nintendo controller! Not a used one!

Excelente produto, muito útil para ter a possibilidade de quatro jogadores.

Good.

At first I though that the color wouldn’t convince me, I’m happy to say that I was wrong. Both colors work well together!
