eXtremeRate SFC SNES Classic EU Style Joycon Handheld Controller Housing (D-Pad Version) Colorful Buttons, Replacement Shell Case for Nintendo Switch & Switch Oled Joy-Con – Console Shell NOT Included

To begin, I'd like to state that I completed this modification after using Basstop's joycon shells. For a Famicon-style mod, I used colored buttons from another mod. br>These are far more precise, and they don't require any additional adjustments to ensure a good fit. br>I'm also impressed that they've included the tool, hardware, and extra triggers. br>You can't go wrong with this for the price. And I would recommend it to anyone if it weren't for a few flaws in the actual design and product. br>br>For starters, one of the back plates was noticeably discolored when compared to the other back plate (see image). If you mostly play handheld or cover it with a strap, it's not a big deal, but I expected a higher level of quality control. br>Second, the dpad and xyba button prints are off-center. You can't tell from afar, but up close, you can tell it's off to the left, especially on the dpad. Finally, the shell's color is painted on. (See image)br> When you open it and look inside, you'll be able to tell. (See image) I'm not sure if they're protected or if my sweaty hands will ruin them. This is my main concern because I really like how my joycons turned out and I don't want to mess with them. Overall, I still recommend it, but be wary of the apparent lack of quality control. br>br>.

BEWARE! If you look at the instructional video and the majority of the photos, you'll notice that the kit comes with two screwdrivers, a small tri-fold knife, and a small tri-fold mirror. a small Philips () bit and a wing (Y) bit I'm not sure when they changed it, but the new kits come with a single EXTREMELY CHEAP aluminum driver and two interchangeable bits that are extremely soft, deform, and, most importantly, DO NOT FIT. I'm very comfortable and competent working with electronics, and I've designed and soldered circuits as well as performed numerous electronic repairs, so this replacement didn't bother me. In addition, I am capable of operating a screwdriver. I have a nice, high-quality driver set for this application at work, where I can't go due to quarantine; given the price point, I didn't expect the included tools to be of the highest quality, but I did expect them to at least FIT and work for the included application. THEY ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIT IN. The Y- Because the bit is the wrong shape and size for the screws Nintendo uses, it will not seat and "bite" without stripping out, damaging both the screw head and the driver bit! Due to the poor quality of the bit they provided, I was unable to open my joycon with it, and the screws were completely stripped out. With the change to what is unquestionably the cheapest tool set available, this kit is rendered completely useless. I'm extremely dissatisfied with this product, and I hope that others will avoid it in the future to avoid being disappointed as well.

I really like the color and the soft matte texture. I've only had them on for about 24 hours, so I can't comment on how long they'll last. However, I usually use a clear TPU case from findway on Amazon, so hopefully that will keep the paint from getting scratched. There was no need to file anything or make any other adjustments because everything fit perfectly. There are no extra joysticks included with this kit, and the buttons are black. Extremerate sells the white buttons I used, and starko (also on Amazon) sells the white joysticks. This isn't a simple plug-in. Mod for and-play. These tiny controllers have a lot of internal components. Good lighting, a good pair of tweezers (not included with tools), and a lot of patience are all required. I'm the type of person who avoids tinkering with electronics. This is the first time I've ever attempted something similar. It could be done, but it wasn't easy. Before you begin, and throughout the process, you should watch YouTube videos. If you're a novice like me, expect to make mistakes. Don't buy if you can't afford a backup set of joycons. If you don't have the patience to open it up again to figure out what's wrong when something breaks, don't buy it. br>br>Actually, I screwed up my right joycon - There is absolutely no fault on the part of extremerate - Now it won't charge or work wirelessly, forcing me to either deal with it or buy a new right joycon. This is simply to make sure you're aware of what you're getting yourself into. br>br>The time and effort you put in will be rewarded by the beauty of your joycons when you're finished. Please exercise caution.

This shell substitute is attractive and well-fitting. The d- pad is a fantastic product. However, there are a few flaws, including the fact that the Shell is painted rather than colored plastic. The paint is thick and adheres well (I scraped some off to see how long it would last), but keep in mind that this is a painted surface. It will eventually wear off, leaving only white plastic behind. Also, two of the screw holes on this were misshapen and needed to be adjusted before a screw could be inserted. Overall, I think this shell kit is a good buy. It's the best I've seen so far, and the inclusion of a d-pad is a nice touch. Here are some things to remember: br>br> br>br>* For those who are curious, the soft feel is matte paint; It has the same smooth cardboard feel as the inside of a cereal box. br>br>* Make sure to thoroughly inspect each component. The painting isn't even close to being done right. I purchased four shell kits from this company, and two of them had issues. br>br>* The shell kit I made for a family member is attached. This company's purple soft feel buttons, white joycons, and hand-painted lettering on the buttons and arrows on the d pad were used.

Anything transparent should be avoided at all costs. Because the OEM buttons are a little sloppy, use them. br>br>At first glance, they appeared to be great, but the fit is terrible. br>br>1st, the cracks appear out of nowhere all over the joy one. I never let go of my switch. Around the screws and faceplates, there are minor cracks. second br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br Buttons, to be precise. L and LZ are the most common abbreviations. Something isn't quite right when it comes to cutting or molding. My L button, for example, is frequently pressed by accident. When I press LZ, it appears to be L. br>br>3rd, the feel quality degrades over time. I'm not sure if it's just the transparent versions, but the texture of the plastic begins to change. In a pleasant but unfavorable manner. It appears that the plastic is deteriorating.
