  Not the easiest swap

  I've modded my 3DS and GBA SP, as well as various controllers and the right joycon is one of the more difficult swaps I've done. If you are patient and gentle and follow a video guide you should be fine.Just a few things of note:There are about 6 tiny and fragile ribbon cables with tiny clips on each joycon. They all detach and reattach differently, which is why I reccomend a video (or take a video/pictures of how and how far the cables go in before they are clipped in place. Some have bumps to indicate, others do not. I had two I thought were in place pop out as I went on to the next step. Again, why I reccomend a video over a quick guide with some pictures.The rz and lz require a little force to remove from the old piece so I held my breath a little there.Other than that it wasn't too bad and the left joycon is much easier than the right so maybe do that first to get an idea of what's to come with the right one. Only weird thing was there are these 4 screws that form a square and 2 screws are short and 2 are long, so don't mix those up.Overall looks great and feels as good as the priginal buttons, but the D-Pad feels amazing compared to the original 4 button setup. I ended up using all the original screws but it comes with everything you need (even springs) as far as I can tell.Ver másVer menos

  Challenging install but great product!

  These look great. I had two matching pairs of boring grey joycons. Now one pair is a grey transparent with colourful buttons! Installation was tricky (which I kind of enjoy - working on small electronics is satisfying for some people!). I broke one joycon while installing - I think I must have shorted out the main board on it. Take your time installing! The right controller is much more complicated than the left, so maybe start with the left and figure out what you're doing then go to the right one. Fortunately a replacement joycon was inexpensive on ebay and on my second try they both seem to work great. Installation was not a fault of this product, they supply replacements for all of the screws and springs, as well as good quality (especially for the price) screwdriver and bits for the job.Would do this again! Would just be a little more careful the first time! Thanks !Ver másVer menos

  These make my Nintendo Switch look so much cleaner!!

  I'll never understand why Nintendo came up with the red and blue joycons. Although enjoyable for some.... for me these colors were such an eyesore! Yes, I know the OLED also has white joycons but they were equally too much for me. Luckily these casings make my Nintendo Switch much more enjoyable to look at. Really makes my playing experience much more enjoyable to look at. Everything looks, feels & sounds exactly as expected. Installation was not easy. This was my first time installing/disassembling joycons and took A LOT of patience to get everything right. I watched a YouTube video for help on this. There are A LOT of tiny pieces and screws so keep this mind when purchasing. Although following directions, I accidentally took off a piece of metal and plastic and it took FOREVER to put back on. This is my fault... not the manufacturers fault.Projects like these come with risks!! Do not blame the manufacturer for the level of difficulty that this may be. With that said, I was satisfied with my purchase and all the things that it came with. Worth the money!!Ver másVer menos

  Better than BASSTOP's

  I recently replaced the shell on a pair of Joy-Cons with the Atomic Purple D-Pad shell from eXtremeRate, having come from using the Atomic Purple D-Pad shell from BASSTOP. Overall, I have to say the one from eXtremeRate is better.The strengths for the eXtremeRate shell are:+Matte finish on the shell feels much nicer than the smooth finish on BASSTOP's.+The eXtremeRate shell seems to fit the Joy-Con parts perfectly, whereas the BASSTOP one bulged a bit from not fitting properly.+The arrows on the D-Pad and the letters on the face buttons are engraved into the buttons ensuring that they won't get rubbed off over time, unlike the printed letters and markings on the BASSTOP buttons.The weaknesses for the eXtremeRate shell are:-The buttons come connected to a runner. You'll need hobby cutters or something to remove them (and maybe a hobby knife or sandpaper to remove sprues from them.-The threads in the screw holes are kinda fragile, so you need to be very careful to not tighten too much, or you'll strip the holes (as I've done a couple of times).-This is a matter of personal preference, but I don't think having clear buttons along with the clear shell looks good (aside from the SL/SR buttons), so I had also bought eXtremeRate's black buttons, too. I'm hoping that down the line, eXtremeRate will offer a Super Famicom button color option.It should be said that replacing Joy-Con shells is NOT an easy task, especially since you're dealing with such small parts. In my experience, it isn't really necessary to disconnect any ribbon cables; in fact it's easier to NOT disconnect them, as I find it's difficult to reattach them.That said, if you're aware of the difficulty involved, I would DEFINITELY recommend eXtremeRate's shells over the others.Ver másVer menos

  Best quality replacement shells ever.

  The Shells replacement from eXtremeRate are the best shell replacements in the market, the offer some options for the aesthetic of the control, some buttons to be replaced with a different color or like in the joycons, changing the awful left joycon individual butons for the D-pad, to a real D-pad, you have different color options as well, transpared or solid colors, the build quality is really good, the plastic is firm and solid, is not cheap plastic like other options.Ver másVer menos

  Second time with a shell-swap, Just as smooth as the first

  Shells are a nostalgic color and came with 2 different D-pads, one in black and one matching the shell color.There are tons of guides available online. The best one I would recommend is the "NintenDIY" tutorial from CptnAlex. It's fast, simple, and gets the job done for both experienced tinkerers as well as beginners.It has been about 3 months since installing these and have zero issues. They perform just fine. To make the installation process easier, go into your Switch settings, go to controller input, and test ALL the button inputs before screwing the back onto the front.One of the more annoying things I forgot was the '-' button. It felt mushy and difficult to press, that's because the grey membrane wasn't situated correctly. Also don't forget those black dust protectors around the joystick. Those are easy to miss.Overall solid product. Can always rely on Extremerate for customization, however. I RECOMMEND you purchase your own screwdrivers. The two they send you are not that great, and you really don't want to strip any screws. Good Luck!Ver másVer menos
