The Joy-Con 2 controllers fix nearly all the issues of the original Joy-Cons, offering significantly improved comfort, build quality, and versatile new features like mouse controls.
The Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con are certainly expensive, and their appeal as a multiplayer alternative has diminished since the previous generation as a result.
