    Starting to see a lot of people concerned about the difficulty of this process and whether or not it's worth the risk. Would you guys be interested in a skin comparison vs shell swap video? 🤗
    EDIT: The long awaited comparison video is here! If you're interested in skins go check it out!

    Wow lavender works so well with the Switch. I'm so confused as to why Nintendo seems so hesitant with more unique special editions of the Switch. The 3DS had tons of amazing editions. The boldest design they've gone for so far has been the AC one and merely for the fact that it's the only one with a completely different dock color (IIRC). The Switch has so much potential for mixing and matching different colors, too. A Lavender Switch would've worked well with FE: Three Houses imo.

      Grace Gardiner I agree. My theory is that they like the recognizable colors they have going on, but anyone could recognize a switch if it had rainbow joycons with unicorns so I’ll admit it’s not the best theory.

    • @LWS2020
      @LWS2020 4 ปีที่แล้ว +78

      I’m pretty sure they don’t do that because they need to code the joycons, for example if you play with a green joy con it will say it’s green. However if you get a rainbow shell and put it on the green joy-con it would still say it’s green. Unless you code it and make sure it tells the Nintendo switch it’s rainbow it would do that, so if nintendo let people customize joy cons it would take AGES to do that.

    I just did a swap and honestly from the way people talked, I thought it was going to be so much worse. Compared to doing a full shell swap on a DS Lite, this was cake. Can't even think of ribbon cables without DS Lite flashbacks.
    That super short cable on the right ended up getting busted on mine but I had a sacrificial joy con and I found on the second go that it's much easier if you do not disconnect the cable from the board. Instead you take off the shoulder button and unscrew it, then just gently keep it out of the way while dissembling the rest. I don't think I even disconnected some of the tiny cables and just took the board with the piece underneath right out.
    Another tip, when putting the shoulder button back on, it's easier if you find the part that clicks to the case and line it up, then press down. The most I had to do was tilt it slightly it so the parts locked together. I say this only because I noticed some people just put it in the general area and then try to force it down, without finding the little bit that the button latches onto before hand. The springs can go on at any point.

      You can buy a lavender skin for them - which is a nice sticker basically. Any colours you want and it won't potentially break your switch lol

    HI for anyone who has trouble with the trigger springs, please for the love of god do this to make it easier for yourself! Put the one towards the inside in first and click the trigger on, Then for the outer one you can just squeeze the spring within your tweasers and place it in the hole, use the peg to pull the tweezers out and it will easily go back into place. :D

    okay i just found out that if you change the joycon colors in the system, when you play pokemon sword/shield, the color of the switch in your room in game will match your customized color! im in love.
    (btw i started shield after customizing my joycons so idk if it works when you started playing before)

    This post is quite long which I will talk about my experience of modding the switch and offer some insight and solutions for the same issue ^^
    I have modded my switch so I could have that beautiful baby pink color 😍❤️, and I did it!!
    Everything was working just fine but after a week the right Joy-Con was no longer can be played while it’s detached from the switch which it was fine by me at first, but then slowly it was getting worse. It became unplayable on free mode + it can’t be charged. I kept investigating on the issue and I finally got to the conclusion that it has to be the fiber that’s responsible for the sync. Aaand it turned out that one of the fibers was indeed severely bent which it can be hard if not impossible for the nodes to flow the way it should be which means the signal is heavily distorted 🤦🏻‍♀️. From what I could tell that is the original shape and position that came from Nintendo.
    Note: when the fiber is bent is not always means that the Joy-Cons will not be playable but it indicate that the durability and the likelihood of it life cycle will be much shorter than it should.
    I understand that Nintendo wanted a portable console with mini Joy-Cons, but forcing the size to be slim and small with cheep material is definitely not the way to go 😫.
    Don’t get me wrong I’m a big fan of Nintendo, but I can’t help but wish if they just increased the quality of their material a little 😩
    and here is the suggested solution for this issue if anyone facing the same thing:
    - if the fiber is not severely bent but the signal is quite distorted. You can fix this issue by simply using a tape on the fiber bent part so it will not be heavily bent. Of course this would be a temporary solution because naturally with time the fiber will get bent again because of how small the Joy-Cons is😥.
    - If the fiber severely bent and the signal almost not existed then the only way is to buy a fiber part and replace it. Fibers a good materials when it comes to speed but it needs the right space to keep the signal flow as it should.
    Note: and of course if you still have the warranty you can go to any Nintendo shop and they will replace it for you❤️ I got to admit their services are amazing ❤️

      This is really great advice and I appreciate you taking the time to drop this information for people to see man, had no idea about the fiber wire issue! Thanks for sharing

    I recently swapped out the shell of my joycons! First time I had troubles with the ribbon cable for the ZR-Button, but other than that, swapping even the middle part worked completely fine. It might have been the shell in your case - can recommend those from ExtremeRate!
    I didn't know of the program though, that's super cool! changing the color is what I needed :)

    I put little folded up paper between the trigger and the button it hits inside the shell in order for them to feel clicky and nice again. Took some trial and error but my custom shell Joy Con feel exactly like the OEM.
