You can buy the neon JoyCons standalone: https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Joy-Con-Neon-Neon-Blue/dp/B01N6QJ58Y/ref=sr_1_22?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1484499317&amp;sr=8-22&amp;keywords=nintendo+switch+joycon

Not sure if there are any other differences between the systems aside from the JoyCons.

$70 on Amazon.

You can get them used for about $60.

Remember that they are effectively 2 controllers. They are expensive but it's really the only option.

Definitely a Screen Protector

A Travelling Case would be nice.

I also added Dr Scholls Moleskin to the front of my dock to reduce the risk of scratching the screen protector. (Two small strips on the parts inside the dock that are raised.)

A Memory Card also helps for the digital only games.

What color Switch did you get? I got the grey switch then bought a pair of Red Joycons and another pair of Blue Joycons. So in total I have a grey, red, and blue L Joycon and a grey, red, and blue R Joycon.

If you got the grey switch and then buy the [two color Joycon packs] (https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Joy-Con-Neon-Neon-Blue/dp/B01N6QJ58Y/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1493753597&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=blue+joycons) then you won't be able to get one of each color for L/R without over paying. This is because the [two color Joycon packs] (https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Joy-Con-Neon-Neon-Blue/dp/B01N6QJ58Y/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1493753597&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=blue+joycons) are always Red L and Blue R.

If you bought a neon switch, then buy the [two color Joycon pack] (https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Joy-Con-Neon-Neon-Blue/dp/B01N6QJ58Y/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1493753597&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=blue+joycons) and a pair of Grey Joycons for all combinations.

Also, don't buy Joycons on Amazon, they are stupid expensive right now.

I don't have a pro controller yet, but people seem to love it.

Games:

Zelda = Must Buy

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe = Must Buy

1-2 Switch = Great for parties/friends

Snipperclips = Great for people who don't play games often (girlfriends/parents/kids). Secret here is to not explain how to play/what to do and let them have fun and try to figure out the puzzles on their own. Act like a support character and you'll have a blast watching them.

Binding of Isaac = I love this game, but put countless hours on the PC version. Mature themes

Super Bomberman R = Classic mode with easy CPUs is fun for roommates. I haven't played through the adventure mode yet.

Wonderboy = Cute/Fun side scroller.

Has Been Heroes = I don't have this yet, apparently very difficult.

Other notes:

I started collecting amiibos after getting a switch (Be very careful, it's easy to get addicted and drop a ton of money here).

I got a Joycon charging dock since the only way to charge extra pairs of Joycons without the Joycon charging dockis to rotate them in and out of the switch while it charges/docked.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

PS I love the Switch so much. It's definitely my favorite console ever.

However I'm not sure if you can buy them individually so it can match the neon switch package.

Amazon?

u/sasasa377 · 2 points r/hardwareswap

Mate I'm sorry to say but I strongly doubt you'll be able to get $90 for the joycons. The case is neat, but you can get brand new joycons on Amazon for 71$, less for the red/blue ones. The color is neat but I'm doubtful anyone would pay a 20$ premium on it. Perhaps if you priced it a bit closer to 70$ you'd have better luck - but even then after fees and shipping you're coming out way lower than you could on Craigslist.

As for the mouse, that's a pretty okay price there. Good luck with the sales.

u/KuraiKiseki · 2 points r/NintendoSwitch

Amazon has the neon red-blue for msrp right now. You can also order the double red or Grey but they'll take longer to ship.

edit: Gamestop has grey joy cons online as well

u/KharasDragoon · 2 points r/NintendoSwitch

I saw that they're selling the red and blue joy cons as a set. https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Joy-Con-Neon-Neon-Blue/dp/B01N6QJ58Y/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1488137168&amp;sr=8-3&amp;keywords=joy+con

u/TemptedTemplar · 2 points r/NintendoSwitch

Separate joycon pairs are only sold as gray, B/B, R/R, or R/B.

To get the B/R set you either need to buy the system or buy the joy con individually from Nintendo Japan

They did do that actually, the neon set is the opposite of what comes with the console. Here.

u/vegna871 · 2 points r/smashbros

does it?

MSRP for two Joy Cons is $80, not $90, and it's pretty common to find them with a 10-15% discount. $70 is still a lot though.

u/EightBitDreamer · 2 points r/NintendoSwitch

They do sell red/red, blue/blue, and red/blue JoyCon sets. The red/blue set is even the opposite of the blue/red Switch console, so if you got that console and that set you can choose any red/blue combination. Example: https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Joy-Con-Neon-Neon-Blue/dp/B01N6QJ58Y

Nope, the joy-con packs you buy separately are reversed. See here.

u/Dano_44 · 2 points r/NintendoSwitch

Of note, if you get the standalone Red and Blue Joycons they are the OPPOSITE Joycons that are included with the Neon Switch, so you can have one Fully Red Switch and one Fully Blue Switch.

See how they are opposites?

So sorry you're still looking for a preorder :( Have you tried your local Walmarts? People seem to be having more luck there than anywhere else. Also, if you want the Neon and can spare the extra money, you can preorder the Neon Joy Cons from Amazon and just buy the grey Switch from Walmart.

There is a retail neon pack that is the opposite of the neon controllers that came with the Switch. If you get that pack you'll have a full red and full blue set.

But yes, buying a single blue would be the cheapest way.

u/juicyjames · 1 point r/NintendoSwitch

There isn't a two pack that inverts those because that pack was meant to be the inverse of the Switch that came with the Neon JoyCon.

The only way out would be to either 1) buy the JoyCon of the right colors individually for $50 each, or 2) return the ones you have and buy a red pair and blue pair.

I've bought quite a few switch accessories.

I bought the Pro Controller.
Works great. Exactly as advertised.

The Nintendo Joy-Con, Neon Blue & Neon Red - Left and Right Edition.
Also works great.

HORI Officially Licensed Premium Protective Filter for Nintendo Switch .

This is not great. I find the edges of it are always peeling back especially along the bottom. However installation was easy.

Because of the above I've now bought:

Spigen Nintendo Switch Screen Protector Tempered Glass / 2 Pack / 9H Hardness for Nintendo Switch 2017

I have not used it yet so I cannot comment on its effectiveness.

I have also ordered the following:

HORI NSW-003U Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Charge Stand Officially Licensed

It was supposed to be released on April 12th according to Amazon and it still hasn't shipped and Amazon doesn't have any accurate information as to when they will receive stock.

I'm pretty sure that's it so far.

So here's the thing about the switch, it's stupidly durable. Here's a video showcasing how strong the console itself actually is:

https://youtu.be/kqMgv9hHmrY

That being said, the closest I could find to a case similar to what you described would be this:

All other cases I've seen are kidnapped stow and go and don't let you play the console without taking them out of the case.

As for controllers you have a few options. The main one is buying another set of joy cons (which are the controllers that CE with your switch). This way you'll technically have 4 controllers because each individual joy con can be used as one. You can also buy the Nintendo official pro controller which is similar to the one made for the Xbox 360/Xbox one and doesn't split into two like the joycon. To buy a set of joycon or a pro controller is about the same price. Nintendo does have some officially licensed pro controllers that have Zelda and Mario designs on them but they are not wireless which may or may not be a deal breaker for you (they are cheaper though).

u/AppleSlacks · 1 point r/NintendoSwitch

I don't know. If you scroll down below you can find people talking about Gamestop locations disclosing how many of the greys and how many of the neons they were getting. It seems the neon sets aren't being produced in the same numbers.

That said though, you'll probably end up wanting another set of joycons anyway for 4 player games, so you could just pick up a set of red and blue later if you wanted:

u/TheLawlessMan · -4 points r/NintendoSwitch

> That's when you know Nintendo is stepping up.

Hi. Not a Nintendo fan but I would argue that the GBA, DS, 3DS (which I had) lines were are mostly fine so I would say its more so that you just didn't want their stuff. Their older consoles weren't bad either from what I have heard. They had slip-ups like the Wii U but they were doing fine in the past. The Switch is more of them being good at what they do.

> Unfortunately when I got old enough for my parents to let me play CoD and Halo,

Whats unfortunate about being exposed to a wider variety of games? Are you now a psychopathic killer that doesn't know right from wrong because if not you might be exaggerating a bit... I am sure you enjoyed those games so lets not pretend that we are above them now or that there is or was ever anything wrong with enjoying them along with everything else.

> (Not to knock halo or CoD, fantastic games in their own right)

This was basically an "I don't mean to be rude but let me just say something rude" to the devs. Nice.

> they were seen as the "holy grail" of games just because they were violent

Welcome to the world of being a Nintendo fan. Congrats on taking your first steps to being unnecessarily snobby towards other systems and devs for no good reason.
For your info Activision and Bungie devs certainly did a fuck ton of work and with how popular their games were back in the day I think I can say that most of the world agreed that their games weren't just popular because they were violent. Some of us played games because we actually liked them. You may have played them because you thought it made you look cool or mature but that wasn't everyone. Step off the high horse. Halo 3 and the early COD MW series were so popular because they were actually good games.

> And then I see YouTube videos of these Nintendo games that people enjoy. Mario kart, Zelda, splatoon, etc. Quality, content filled games that focus on the most important things about video games: THE GAME ITSELF

Probably because you were purposely only looking for those.
Again congrats on another milestone. You are now pretending that you can't also go to a PS4 and find plenty of games that play good, look good, don't put a hole in your wallet, etc. You are circlejerking on a Nintendo sub the right way. Keep it up.

> Every game now a days is trying to nickle and dime me PAST my initial $60 purchase
> focus on the most important things about video games: THE GAME ITSELF. Not DLC

Yup. Even though Nintendo has started announcing Season Passes before their games are even out. Yup. Totally. Not Nintendo.
^Sub ^Hint: ^This ^is ^the ^part ^where ^you ^should ^now ^say ^"Oh ^well ^now ^I ^am ^okay ^with ^it."

> Sure the graphics may not be as good, or the framerate, which is definitely an issue for people sometimes. But damn it I don't think most people notice it when they play the switch because it's just pure FUN.

Don't notice it? Source? Did you see all the different forum posts and reviews about people noticing the framerate dips in Zelda? Do you see reviews and discussions for some of the games with questionable ports? Framerate does actually affect gameplay and more than a few people notice it. You say you play on PC so I am sure you get that. I am not one of those super snobs that goes "I just can't play games below 60fps" but there is a clear difference. Inconsistent framerates do affect my gameplay and fun. My game slowing down during a fight isn't "pure FUN." I am not saying I don't still enjoy the game but I am not in such ecstasy that I don't notice the drops.

> the online infrastructure seems a little sketchy

You can say its more than sketchy. Its outdated and archaic. I need my phone to use voice chat.

> And i kinda wish I got the red and blue joycons and not boring old grey, but I couldn't find any red and blues lol

Check Amazon US. It looks like they have some.

I like my Switch and a lot of Nintendo's catalog but damn guys...
