Good alternate option for JoyCon

Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2020

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

Bought these so my kids could play four player games. Would normally buy the name brand JoyCon but went with this as a second option due to a lack of availability and subsequent secondary market price hike for the actual JoyCons. Was disappointed at first because they did not appear to work for Mario Kart 8 (one would not switch to horizontal mode and L/R buttons did not work). However, contacted Nyko via email and they were quick to respond with a firmware update. Applied the update and they work perfect. Rumble is not as deep as the JoyCon but is good enough to get the sensation. Feel is sturdy and control response is good. Great product support by Nyko! Overall...happy with purchase.

(updated twice) Not recommended. NYKO's BAD service. One bad battery. Fragile construction.

Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2021

Color: Red/BlueVerified Purchase

This set of controllers work for Switch. Cool.
Didn't buy it for that.
Even the joycons can be used on PC.
These aren't recognized by any PC as a controller therefor can't be used for anything other than playing Switch.

These actually would have been great for the one handed remote I wanted to use it as.
As for the performance as Joycon replacements.
The rumble is obviously not HD Rumble. So a lot of features are not as smooth as they should be.
Motion is fine.
No amiibo or IR sensor support.
These are big controllers. Nice to hold as single controllers.
Horrendously uncomfortable for using both at the same time.
the square design digs into your first fingers more that the NES does, and you really have to stretch to deal with the centered buttons.
These were not really designed for being used together.

I overall hate these controllers.

(UPDATE) June 28, 2021

SO, I recently found out there are programs that force these controllers to work on PC.
Fantastic.
I'm actually REMOVING a star because of Nyko's TERRIBLE service.

As I said, I only used one controller for my computer and the other controller for gaming.

WELL, as I found out, the right handed controller DIDN"T CHARGE.
So I contacted Nyko's support services.
They didn't just take a month to respond, after they told me they attached a repair label to the email,
I noticed THEY DIDN'T, and sent a response telling them.
They then took ANOTHER month, meaning the controllers were now out of warranty.
They PURPOSEFULLY waited to run the warranty out to disallow me from sending in the faulty controller.

(UPDATE) September 3, 2021

About a month after making the last update, I was using the one workable controller for drawing.
I literally just use the controller as a tool that has all of the keyboard shortcuts on on hand.
It's what I used the original Joycon controller for, but the drift made it hard to use tools.
WELL, one day I hear a loud SNAP. Sure enough, because it's transparent plastic, I can see there aren't actually springs holding up the SL/SR buttons in place.
In fact the ONLY thing holding those buttons in place but a very thing piece of plastic that is attached to a single plastic rivet in the center of the stick.
The stick snapped, so now the button that is not attached to the main rivet is just free floating within the controller and gets stuck. That wouldn't be so bad, since the button still worked perfectly fine.
WELL until last night, when the button, still clicking (they did have a nice click to them) is very clearly not working. I'm using a controller mod for my PC to make the buttons perform key presses
and sure enough, it's showing that the SL button is no longer being detected as working.

Remember, I'm not even using this controller to play games!
I'm using it as a tool to use keyboard shortcuts!
I'm surprised this controller lasted as long as it did. I can only imagine it's life would have been cut shorter had I actually used it to play games.

But HEY. STILL NO DRIFT!! 😂

⭐ Still no drift.
⭐Great for using alone. (If it doesn't break)
👎🏽 Cheap internal constriction allows for external buttons to break easily.
👎🏽 Extremely uncomfortable to hold together.
👎🏽 No amiibo or IR.
👎🏽 Difficult to get working on PC. Requires special apps.
👎🏽 Nyko's purposefully TERRIBLE service and unwillingness to replace a broken product.

They’re OK

Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2018

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I got these as joycon alternatives for my kids, as we’ve had some connectivity issues with the joycons. Running about $10-$20 cheaper than the Official joycons, I knew these would likely be of a somewhat lower quality, so no surprises there. These guys are very light and plastic-feeling, which is not surprising. I found the buttons to be far less clicky than I am used to, which means I don’t get the feedback that a button press actually registered. I also found the analog stick to be somewhat unpredictable. All told, for $20 less than a set of JoyCons, I would say they’re only Ok. They’re definitely not a third less functional than the joycon. That said, I would probably end up buying the official ones next time I’m in the need for some controllers.

Useful for specific situations

Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2020

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

When I first bought these they were the ONLY option on the market if you needed a Joy Con with a turbo button. That is no longer the case so I am updating my review. There is much to be desired from these when compared to other 3rd-party Joy Cons.

The selling point here used to be that these are Joy Cons with a turbo function (manual turbo only, you have to actually hold the button down). They're bigger and have a lip on the inner edge where the SL/SR buttons are, which means they're more comfortable to hold horizontally but awkward and clunky when held vertically. They also cannot be slid onto the console rails, instead they charge with a USB-C cable (only brings one cable). Lastly, the motion control on them is terrible so it's impossible to catch any Pokemon with them in Let's Go. Overall: they function but there are much better options.

Underrated!

Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2023

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I wanted to come write a review for these controllers because the average rating for them is not as good as I would expect. Sure, you do have to manually update the firmware, and yes, you should probably also follow the instructions on calibration, but once you do those things, these work great, especially for $20! Motion controls and vibration work appropriately, and a little bit bigger and more comfortable to hold than OE joy cons. Only wish there was a Y cable included to charge both at the same time, but for the price, these can't be beat! This is a great set for young kids too. Don't have to worry about them being rough with the factory special edition joy cons!

Hardware works, just needs an UPDATE

Reviewed in Canada on February 27, 2024

I thought mine would not connect as well but with a little bit of research and by just reading the “instructions” I was able to update, connect and use the controllers. Make sure to use a computer to update controller and read instructions.

Fummeliges Pairing

Reviewed in Germany on February 20, 2023

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

Als Einzelkontroller z.B. für Mario Kart sehr viel angenehmer als die "halben" JoyCons.

Schade, dass das Pairing nicht so reibungslos funktioniert wie bei den Original-Kontrollern. Das genaue Pairing-Ritual ist aber genau in der Anleitung beschrieben. Firmware-Update für die Kontroller war notwendig (ebenfalls in der Anleitung).

1 Stern Abzug für den Pairing-Komfort, diese Schwachstelle ist aber ausreichend dokumentiert und wurde auch nicht irreführend beworben/verschwiegen.

Les gyroscopes au fraises

Reviewed in France on March 5, 2022

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

Les manettes semblent au premier abord remplir leur fonction, après avoir compris comment les appareiller à la Switch et les avoirs misent à jour via le site du fabricant.

En matière d'ergonomie, elles tiennent bien mieux en mains avec leur design mastoc, et les gâchettes d'épaules tombent bien mieux sous les doigts que celle des joycon de base. On peut reprocher un certain manque de lisibilité avec les touches entièrement en plastique noir.

Testés sur Super Mario Party, les contrôles avec les touches répondent bien, jusqu'à ce que le jeu nous demande d'utiliser les fonctionnalités des gyroscopes, et là, c'est la cata.

Si pour des gestes brusques (bouger rapidement la manette par exemple, comme pour lancer le dé dans Mario Party) la manette répond parfaitement ; quand il s'agit de faire des actions plus précises, les gyroscopes sont complètement à la ramasse et manquent cruellement de précision. Rédhibitoire pour moi, tant cela rend certains mini-jeux injouables.

Article retourner immédiatement, rien ne vaut au final une paire de joycon officielle si vous voulez de la qualité.
