eXtremeRate DIY Replacement Shell Buttons for Nintendo Switch & Switch OLED, Black Soft Touch Custom Housing Case with Full Set Button for Joycon Handheld Controller - Console Shell NOT Included

An easy install if you are familiar with electronic components, if not then make sure you have a guide that can help you feel confident in the transfer process. This is a basic install that should NOT interfere with any of the joy-con functionality. If there’s any issue that you come across it must be from a loose wire or snagged wire. Issues that you may come across would be taking out the motor connector, the trigger placement, and snagging ribbon cables. It does come with some handy tools if you don’t own any with some replacement hardware, they aren’t the best build quality but they get the job done. Other tools that would be helpful is an ESD tweezer. Other then that it’s not too difficult. (The case itself I would have to rate it at 4.5/5): It has a nice soft touch to it, however I got the pine green color and it’s a few shades lighter then the picture. Also if you have oily hands it’ll show up on these in lighting. The internal built quality is okay, they don’t fully paint the inside so there is some areas not painted, it DOES NOT include double sided tape or soft pads to attach to some internal parts. So it’s recommended to take it from the old housing and place it into the new one to prevent damages. The seam lines aren’t like an official joycon they do have small imperfections. Overall the product rating and she’ll swapping itself I would give would be 4.5/5 can really change the look of the switch, so I would definitely recommend it. I also got the buttons & stick covers but that’ll be for their own review. P.S. it’s also easy to match the color of the virtual joycons to the physical joycons if you have a computer in hand, an easy search.

As far as the product itself it’s perfect. The parts all fit seamlessly and are identical to the actual Nintendo joy con. Now, as far as the installation. This was genuinely one of the hardest things I’ve ever done and I’m not exaggerating. I expected it to be difficult but this was like bad. This is coming from someone who has no experience with wiring or things of that nature so maybe this would be a walk in the park for some of you but for the average person reading this I have to be completely reasonable here and say probably 75-85% of people will absolutely not be able to complete this. To save yourself the money of breaking a controller and the time of trying to do this, I highly recommend finding a person who’s willing to do it for you for 20-30$ ( but at that point you may also just consider buying new switch remotes in any color you like ) Overall, i’m conflicted on how exactly to rate this product because the amount of work and energy that it took to complete was actually insane but I am happy I did it and it was a satisfying accomplishment. It also looks phenomenal. I think that my only piece of advice would be watch the full installation tutorial video for this product on youtube first before you buy this and be honest with urself on whether or not it’s something you can do. The videos about an hour and 20 minutes long and its sped up. The biggest issue is the screws that come with the switch. They strip so easily. Some of them just don’t catch the screwdriver for no apparent reason. I’ve never touched any of them before but some just catch less than others. They are very fragile so be careful taking them out and putting them in.

Easy to install and it even came with screwdriver and enough screws and springs to install both. I reutilized many of my old joycon which was damaged so ended having spares. Very happy with the results and product quality. Note: the ABXY buttons I kept the old ones because they have a white color which I find easier to see.

I bought this skin and the buttons from the same company. I received all of the parts during the last week of March and made the changes to my brand new, out of the box, joy-cons within a few days, so I have at least two full months using the joy-cons after having installed both the buttons and the skin. I've waited until I got a lot of game play in to write my review for this product. First, I DO NOT recommend taking the joy-cons apart at all to put in new buttons or a new skin. I watched a few youtube videos before purchasing that claimed that replacing the buttons and/or skin was tedious, but doable for inexperienced people, but that is extremely misleading. I want to go a head and say DO NOT DO THIS. I myself am fairly inexperienced at customizing electronics, but I went forward with customizing the joy-cons with my fiancé's help (he builds custom computers and has a lot of experience taking electronic parts apart and putting them back together). Even for someone who has experience doing this, the parts and space inside the controller are extremely small and any wrong move you make can impact the controls. I didn't immediately notice to any issue with my joy-cons after we completed the changes, but a few days after we customized the joy-cons, I tried to use one of mine to play Mario party with my fiancé and found the the right joy-con will not register for single controller use. I thought the issue had more to do with the fact that we were using different joy-cons from different pairs, so I grabbed the pair for our other joy-con set and didn’t think to much about it for a while. After about a month and a half after the customization, I noticed some delayed responses to some of my controls when playing. I’ve been heavily paying Animal Crossing during quarantine, so I assumed it was a low battery issue, but after charging the Switch and joy-cons and moving the joy-cons to the joy-con grip, my right joy-con (same one as before) kept temporarily losing connection during extended game play. Then, when I tried to move my Animal Crossing game into two player mode, I found that my left joy-con worked fine, but my right joy-con would not register as a single controller (again, the same issue as before, but this time I wasn’t using joy-cons from two different sets). I still use my joy-cons, but I can’t use them for game play that requires precise controls, like fishing in Animal Crossing or boss fights in BOTW. The toughest issue with the joy-cons is that most of the games will use the controls on the right joy-con for actions, so I really am limited in some of the things I can do with my joy-con. I don’t recommend replacing either the skin or the buttons for the joy-cons, as any customization you do to the joy-cons requires you to take the whole thing apart. I understood that making these customizations could affect the integrity of the joy-cons, which is why I bought a new pair to use for the customizations; However, even considering my precautions, I still don’t recommend customizing the joy-cons, even if it’s a second pair, because you’ll be limited in the uses for those joy-cons (can’t use them in Mario Party, for games that need more accurate controls, etc.). For as easy as this company attempts to make customization with their video tutorials and the tools they include with the product, you really are just wasting your money and time with these products because the joy-cons are not made to be easily customizable and even someone with more experience in customizing electronics will find it difficult to manage the small ribbons, small parts, and small wires. In the end, you won’t be able to make full use of the joy-cons and will probably need to buy yet another new pair. The soft feel of the skin and variety of colors is not worth trouble in customizing and the risk of not being about to you the joy-cons afterwards.

Der Umbau selbst war ne ziemliche Fummelarbeit und hat Ewigkeiten gedauert (so um die 3 Stunden für beide), ist aber bei der Größe der Joy Cons auch kein Wunder. Die Verpackung hat alles recht gut zusammengehalten. Der Schraubendreher, der dabei lag, scheint qualitativ recht wertig zu sein, allerdings wurde er abgesehen vom Umbau aber auch nicht auf Qualität und Haltbarkeit überprüft. Cooles Plus: Die Umbauanleitung ist im Internet (YT, um genau zu sein), daher der beiliegende Zettel mit Sicherheitshinweisen sehr flach gehalten, aufs Nötige beschränkt und wenig Papiermüll. Wärmeleistung und Haltbarkeit nach dem Umbau hab ich noch nicht ausreichend getestet, allerdings ist bisher (ca 3 Wochen nach Umbau) alles super. Schrauben hatte ich fast alle existierenden genommen (die fürs Case gewechselt aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Schlitze), da bei ihnen farblich klarer waren, wo sie hingehören. Allerdings ist der ein oder andere Knopf kleiner als das Original, so zum Beispiel der Homebutton am rechten JC (der wackelt bei mir ab und zu ein wenig). Zwei Wünsche hätte ich allerdings an den Hersteller: - Ich hab mich beim Umbau bei einer Schraube vertan und jetzt in dem Case eine kleine Erhebung, in der ich die zu lange Schraube rein gedreht hab (stört mich aber nicht wirklich). Cool wäre es, wenn bei der Anleitung kurz spezifiziert welche, welche Schraube verwendet werden sollte für Leute, die zum ersten Mal so einen Umbau machen (zum Beispiel mit Nummern, die kleinste hat die 1, die ganz Äußeren fürs case die 3 oder ähnlich) - Ich hab auf der Webseite recht lange suchen müssen, um die Anleitung für meine Art vom Umbau zu finden und schlussendlich einfach über YT direkt gesucht. Da würde ich mir einen separaten Punkt wünschen für den Umbau vom Case, ohne dass man am linken JC die Knöpfe zum Kreuz wechselt. Alles in Allem bin ich ziemlich zufrieden. Sieht super aus, weil's jetzt auch farblich zu dem Rest der Switch passt und fühlt sich genauso an, wie neu gekaufte JCs.

Great texture, very high quality shell. But the buttons imo arent as great as the original and the shell precision isn't as great. Overall highly recommended, much better than other brands.

Premetto che è già il secondo che prendo poiche la qualità è davvero ottima.Prodotto di ottima fattura viene fornito lo shell con una sprute dei tasti le eventuali viti se si volesse cambiarle e un cacciavite con varie punte. La plastica risulta essere leggermente gommata che la rende molto più piacevole al tatto rispetto a quelle originali. Le finiture sono davvero ottime neanche una bava e si incastra davvero alla perfezione. Unica premessa armatevi di calma e pazienza perché i componenti dei joycon sono davvero piccoli quindi consiglio di guardare qualche guida su YouTube e di prendervi il vostro tempo. Detto questo consigliatissimo davvero.

Coque pour joycon sympa et jolie mais ultra complexe à monter. Il faut être vraiment sûr avant de se lancer là dedans car il faut être patient, minutieux, organisé et réfléchi pour réussir. Je suis bien contente que le montage (qui m’a pris plusieurs heures) avec l’aide de mon fiancé, soit enfin terminé. Je suis contente du rendu surtout avec ma coque arrière marbré rose.

They look great! Good material used (soft to the touch), relatively easy to install (only took me an hour to do, most difficult was the ribbon cables). Software to change Joy-Con colours from Neon-Red/Blue to straight Red was easily found on (GBAtemp). I'm very happy with this
