United StatesBasically the Galaxies, but for Joy-cons
FPSFREEK Vortex for Nintendo Switch I’ve been using the FPSFREEK Galaxies on my PS4 and Switch Pro controllers for a little bit, and I’ve been really satisfied with them. Seriously, they are great. But hurricane Zeta has knocked out my power, so an undocked Switch is my only gaming option right now. I figured I should try these out, and again, I am very satisfied. I’m right-handed, but I actually switch the thumbstick covers with these. I like the longer thumbstick controlling movement on the left. Many of my favorite Switch games have platforming elements, and I feel that the longer stick gives me more precise control when approaching cliffs and such. I have long thumbs, so I like the right stick to be raised as well, but not as much. It interferes with pressing the B button. I don’t really play shooters on the Switch, so it’s not a problem for me. The extra height is enough to give me the aim precision I want in games like Breath of the Wild. I’m considering buying a second pair, so I have two of each type.

United StatesAwesome! Best thumb grips
I purchased some of the skull and co thumb grips before these existed and they always seemed to pop off trying to use them for leverage which kind of defeats the purpose of them. I was very happy to see this product released for the Nintendo switch joycons and instantly purchased them. The wrong product was sent and I put in a support ticket. Kontrolfreek support sent out the correct item right away. These stay put and stay on. These give you the ability to play FPS games from the joycons and allow you to be competitive. There is a learning curve and muscle memory you need to develop over time. I've had Kontrol Freeks classics since the days of the PS3. They are still going strong. My only suggestion to make them better? Add additional color options. Orange as the only option is a bit disappointing but obviously cosmetics doesn't change functionality.

United StatesVastly Improved My Control
I love them, and wouldn’t play an FPS without them. And I’d buy another set if they sold them in black
