Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Enhance Gaming Comfort with PowerA Joy Con Comfort Grips for Nintendo Switch - Black by Zachary Ester

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice addition for Animal Crossing fans!

I have the Animal Crossing version because I've been a fan of gaming since the GameCube days, so I had to add this Joy-Con grip to my collection. Aesthetically, I appreciate the Isabelle theme with the addition of colorful, prominent AC symbols. Isabelle is the only character. The console's face is an off-white color that Isabelle doesn't seem to have enough contrast to make it stand out. The remote control itself is comparable to the original in this price range. My Joy-Cons can go in and out on either side as usual, and both remotes turn on as usual, allowing me to play with them on the Switch. Notable differences include: the lack of metal rails on which the joysticks slide, the contour on the back where the pointer will be located, facing inward (instead of the more egg-shaped original Nintendo grip), and the rubber backing of the grips. I would give these grips 4 stars because I prefer the egg shape of the original grips as they feel more comfortable on my hands. But I appreciate the novelty of these grips and use them often when playing Switch multiplayer games! They still work well as joy-cons.

Pros
  • Dual rubber grips for extra comfort
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
