Before the video I had the habit of playing with the kickstand until it turned loose, but after seeing the video I got the habit of removing the whole kickstand...
Funny part is that my Nintendo switch was fine but then my "friends" was at my house and they would always try to break it since they don't have one and I'm lucky it's working at this point. Those friends are not allowed to come over to me anymore. Edit: Hey y'all, It's been 2 years since I last saw this comment of mine and wow I didn't expect to see this xD. To give some updates, my nintendo switch is still working but the joystick has some drag problems but it could have been something I caused myself. For the friends part, I don't have any contact anymore with those that tried to break my Nintendo switch and everything has been well since then and yes it was jealousy that caused them to wanna break the switch since I knew they didn't have one themselves. When it comes to myself so have I been great! It's been peaceful and I haven't needed to worry at all, reading the comments put me in a good mood seeing how supportive u all are and I wanna say thank you. I myself could never tell someone to do something like "pay back what u break" or "leave this house now" or swear at them and I assume this is why they tried to take advantage. Once again I wanna thank you all and I wish you all good health. Peace!
I had some "friends" that almost did the same to my switch. Because apparently I'm too "normie" enough to get it. I took it off there hands and I said "your too dick enough to be my friends" and I kicked them out.
Lmao if they did that I would kick their ass off my house then say "Fuck off jealous bitches. Poor assholes that can't afford a Switch and then need to break others." If they would have broke it I would say "Give me 330€ right now or I'll sue you bitch" or steal their phones and sell them. That easy..
Another piece of advice... If you're not using your joy-cons then store them someplace safe. That includes the Switch. I know it's easy to just leave it in the dock, but dust, dead skin, and debris does build up. Regularly clean it and store it away when not in use. The dock can be left out and dusted at least once a week.
My solution to fixing Nintendo stuff is to blow on it. It worked on my Gameboy , DS, Dsi, and 3Ds and even my wii. Fixing Nintendo items since I was 5 years old.
I wouldn't reccomend that haha, it can make the cartridge moist and can damage it, which can corrupt your data! (Hope I don't sound like a snotty smart ass ahaha)
@@scorpodile9649 blowing doesn't really help anyway, it's mostly the removing and then potting it back again that fixes the issue. And if still doesn't work use toothbrush.
That's sounds like something my mom would say. Not only does she want us to have fun, but she also wants us to take care of our stuff really carefully.
9:35 an idea is to rebuild the plastic using superglue and baking soda. Just keep putting a few layers on until it’s slightly taller and wider than the original and using a good pin as reference you can sand using sandpaper or small files until you get the shape right. I’ve done this for worn out battery door catches and it’s worked very well.
I have been watching videos for over an hour on trying to get the right joy con to charge. Your video was the only one I have seen that showed down inside the gold connectors and to clean in there. I only had a toothpick and got a lot of cookie crumble out of there! These joycons are only 2 weeks old and NOW it is charging. Thank you!!
Despite all the issues the switch has, I still love it for being such a versatile piece of tech, and it also has great games to go with its versatility.
Yep my friend hates on Nintendo cuz there arent many games on switch. Hes a ps fanboy btw but in my opinion the games are better than on ps Breath od the wild 2 is coming this year and alotta different games
this is so nostalgic, i watched this once while waiting to a get switch and off some reason i remember this video more than any of the other ones i watched and i still use these fixes to this day lol
The joycons are weak as fuck. My right joycons thumbstick is half broken and I've never dropped the thing and only used them handheld. Don't know if someone else dropped it or something but it kinda wore down over time and now it just doesn't work at all
I've had my switch since like, Jan 2019, and the only issues I've had so far are drift and my left joycon not wanting to connect sometimes and flying off when I accidentally drop the system. I was able to fix drift myself by replacing the joystick, but I honestly never thought about how I could fix the other issues. Glad to know it's more wear and tear than just breaking it.
The only thing that you taught me In This video is how to open toothbrush boxes Edit: holy!!!! So many likes!!! Never had that many likes.. thank you so much!
X-perto I can’t agree he’s blaming the console for his mistakes like I’ve had the switch from the beginning and I’ve been playing quite often and I haven’t had any of these problems

A Channel lol it’s been a year and the joycons are still a problem. The plastic bit on the back still wears down. Nintendo has yet to fix the problem. Luckily there’s replacement ones that are metal. I’ve bought 4 switches now for myself and my sons and my wife. Only one of them had the joycon problem.
@@RealLauraDuke Ever had a ds or 3ds? Stylus gone, L/R problems, screen broken, touchscreen not working properly, eventually everything wears down. They arent made to last forever. Though nintendo stuff does have lower durability than playstation stuff tbh. My xbox controller also broke 😂 one day after years. Playstation controllers. No issues.
I was looking for this comment. What would you call the opposite of a ASMR video? The noises of him docking, tapping, punching or anything to the switch make me cringe. Lol i would be worried to do that to my switch.
Thanks for the video. I am currently dabbling in a little switch repair myself and did something that was a no-brainer to me. Whenever I took apart something and didn't have the proper replacement part available I would take a post it note, label it, fold it in a way so you have 3 parts along the sticky end of it but also utilizing the sticky side as adhesive to keep it together, Press it flat, fold one end up twice and fill in your screws and small parts so you don't loose them. Do the same with the top and you are good to go for storing it somewhere.
I'm British and I find the British accent really annoying it's sound so posh makes them sound like they think they're All high and mighty even though I'm sure he's a lovely guy
Those complaining about his rough treatment. This thing is designed for children. Children will drop, shake, squeeze and abuse these things. They're made well, just ask Jerryrigeverything. Also look at Original Gameboys. They still work fine....
Personally the only problems ive had with the stand are it being too hard to take out or it not balancing on anything other than a perfectly flat surface
@@Greengobler i recently heard that Nintendo can fix your joy cons You should try it or you can go to Amazon to get the metal version of the plastic thing
The 2nd one actually happened to me and my switch couldn't even tell that the remote was connected to it, but thanks to you it is now fixed!!! You deserve More credit and views dude, thanks so much!!!
I need help with something. When I play a game, my right joycon (used as a camera) acts weirdly because when I don’t touch it, it just moves down automatically. Can you help me?
Ok, so I had done a mod on my joycons to make them atomic purple clear, and when I tried to connect them, they would disconnect sometimes, I thought I screwed them up, I tried everything to fix them, and I saw this video and just blew into the connectors (using compressed air) and it completely resolves the problem, so using compressed air to clean the connector pins works as well. (Thanks for the video btw! Thumbs up from me!)
Lennon Wagner I guarantee you may have done something wrong, either holding it kinda of bad or putting too much pressure on the joycon without realizing it :/
Diego Quichiz But still, if you had to demonstrate points that made your own problems worse you’d basically just be getting nowhere yourself and making things a little harder to solve.
Jamie 〜 emm nope, because all that he do its pre thought. I mean, he knows that he have a problem there, but if he demostrate the point the way he do its because he knows its not gonna cause worst consecuences. Also, this shows up better in the next videos where he tries some solutions, and finally solve the problem - demostrating the differences between a video that is focused on solve the problem and other that just want to show it, like this one-. And, obviously, he's using it to explanate the video, so its false that he is "gettin nowhere". He's making the video more comprehensive.
I'm gonna buy a switch and i am very happy that i watched this video... because, if one of those thinks happen, ill be able to fix it... or maybe it wont even get that far like the problem with the joy cons... thank you
DuckGamez What? XD It was in the trailer and it can be seen in pic's... Its the biggest part of the switch... thats why there is the mode "tabletop mode", where you have the switch on your table and you play with the joy cons
Sadly you cannot do much to that issue with joycons it is more about luck how tough plastic parts you get. My left joycon lock has chipped almost half way while right side is in pristine condition. I have used those only myself and i know that i have not abused them anyway different, the left joycon lock just has inferior plastic. I am considering to buy metal locks from ebay and also replacement screws for joycons because i've heard once you open those screws it will be almost impossible to get them all back. This is a safety measure created by nintendo so they see if people have tampered with their joycons.
arjoze _ just look up nintendo switch metal joycon latch and the product itself will usually be titled “metal lock buckles” or “replacement latches” or something similar. Warning, it requires the disassembly of your joycons to replace the latches (feel like that was kinda obvious but gotta make sure) and although some of the latches do come with a triwing screwdriver that you can use, I’ve heard they aren’t exactly the greatest so take that as you will. Also maybe look up a joycon disassembly video in case you’ve never done it, and doing the replacement may or may not void any possible warranty on your switch (I’m not up to date with current warranty regulations, look it up if you want)
Aren't the plastic stoppers a planned fault? Meaning if you drop your switch and the joycon hits the ground first it gets disconnected and doesn't do damage to the console itself.
@@ApeBlin nope. Physics would say that if it snaps off it is even worse. If it falls on the joycon rounded corner the shock is carried to the switch, and as it disconnects, the switch tablet's corner will also hit the ground, causing a second shock and it makes it twice as likely to break the screen. Shock from the joycon does depend on the angle of the fall however.
Useful video. The second tip helped me when the right Joy-Con suddenly disconnected from my Switch when it was still physically attached. Thanks, Vince! 😊🎮🕹️
This video is very educational and its even more convenient for us to actually SEE how to not do these things to the switch and such unlike others who just say it. Great vid!
for the bending the kickstand i would recomend hitting it with a hair dryer for a couple seconds on high heat to soften the plastic so that it bends faster and doesnt stress the plastic which could eventually lead to it snapping or breaking
Best bit of advice right here! I've never even held a Switch so I can't comment specifically on the quality of the plastic used on the stand but cheap plastic has a tendency of being brittle so bending it like in the video will lead to it snapping. Always heat plastic just enough to make it more malleable before attempting to bend it then give it a few minutes to let it cool afterwards. Only takes a few more minutes to do and will save a lot of people from breaking their stands
I hope there's a (common)replacement parts of joycons available. Maybe broken spare joycons&y-shaped screw driver + healthy dose of manual reading would help you.
No it doesn't have to take that sort of abuse. It's not Nintendo's fault that some people are too stupid to use their things carefully. This isn't fucking lego, it's an expensive electronic device.
I'm glad I watched this. I got a switch last year for my bday and randomly stumbled upon this video and found it more helpful then I thought. Very useful, I will remember this

One advice to avoid The dust
Do not put Your Joy cons and Your Switch Screen In Your pocket
how would it fit in a pocket?
Mr Mystery You using Adults cargo Shorts or cargo pant
they can fit in jeans but would not recommend for both console or comfort
Who the fuck puts a Switch in their pocket?. Maybe a DS or PSP yeah but a Switch? XD

I know it's easy to just leave it in the dock, but dust, dead skin, and debris does build up. Regularly clean it and store it away when not in use.

I was looking for this comment. What would you call the opposite of a ASMR video? The noises of him docking, tapping, punching or anything to the switch make me cringe. Lol i would be worried to do that to my switch.
Thanks for the video. I am currently dabbling in a little switch repair myself and did something that was a no-brainer to me. Whenever I took apart something and didn't have the proper replacement part available I would take a post it note, label it, fold it in a way so you have 3 parts along the sticky end of it but also utilizing the sticky side as adhesive to keep it together, Press it flat, fold one end up twice and fill in your screws and small parts so you don't loose them. Do the same with the top and you are good to go for storing it somewhere.
Why do British accents make everything sound a thousand times better
Soul Boosted It's just the charm of the British (I'm british aswell)
Soul Boosted ikr
Idk Maybe bcuz dantdm XD
Supreme CaptainCake he sucks
I'm British and I find the British accent really annoying it's sound so posh makes them sound like they think they're All high and mighty even though I'm sure he's a lovely guy
Those complaining about his rough treatment. This thing is designed for children. Children will drop, shake, squeeze and abuse these things. They're made well, just ask Jerryrigeverything.
Also look at Original Gameboys. They still work fine....
Sierra Harmony original game Boys were indestructible
Exactly Nintendo systems are always durable
And why do people even care that much? It’s none of their concern. It’s his Switch, so he can treat it how he wishes.
Sierra Harmony it’s made for everybody, not children...multiple adults have switches as well
Made well... drift after a month is not made well.
Personally the only problems ive had with the stand are it being too hard to take out or it not balancing on anything other than a perfectly flat surface
My won't even go in i have to use tape
@@Greengobler thats tuff
@@teresarodriguez3661 yep and super annoying im considering glueing it in
Bub Mickey USE FLEX TAPE, IT HOLDS ON TIGHT!
@@Greengobler i recently heard that Nintendo can fix your joy cons You should try it or you can go to Amazon to get the metal version of the plastic thing
The 2nd one actually happened to me and my switch couldn't even tell that the remote was connected to it, but thanks to you it is now fixed!!! You deserve More credit and views dude, thanks so much!!!
I need help with something. When I play a game, my right joycon (used as a camera) acts weirdly because when I don’t touch it, it just moves down automatically. Can you help me?
Stranger Dash SAMEEE!! ;-;
There might be a little dust in part of it
Sem it isnt, I fully cleaned it out and it still happens.
TheDum Bum I tried that and makes it worse
then u probably got some dirt in there, u can find videos on how to clean em!
Omg people are like
"hE's HaNdLiNg It RoUgHlY"
HE'S DEMONSTRATING
plus its his switch as well soooooooooo
Gamer Nas you can beat whats yours all you want
IKR it is his so he can do it if he wants. People make me MAD!
mr head I’m sure that’s going to be taken out of context
Those were comments from 2 years ago, but I agree with you.
*time sure does fly by so it could be more than that*
mr head except for your kids.
Ok, so I had done a mod on my joycons to make them atomic purple clear, and when I tried to connect them, they would disconnect sometimes, I thought I screwed them up, I tried everything to fix them, and I saw this video and just blew into the connectors (using compressed air) and it completely resolves the problem, so using compressed air to clean the connector pins works as well. (Thanks for the video btw! Thumbs up from me!)
- ChrisCube - that why you don't mod game consoles unless you're just modding a video game itself to get items in the game
thats not how that works at all. This is why you can - because it was a very easy fix.
"Don't mod your game consoles reEEEEEE" - people who can't follow directions properly and probably broke a console by modding in the past
Just like a Gameboy cartridge

My Mate Vince: Put a lil bit of pressure down
Me: (puts a lil bit of pressure)
*SNAPS*
Me: F U C K
I just got my Switch 2 weeks ago, I never put the straps on wrong, and my left Joycon is super loose. Sadness fills my soul.
Lennon Wagner I guarantee you may have done something wrong, either holding it kinda of bad or putting too much pressure on the joycon without realizing it :/
Kakakarot Cake i actually doubt it. Most left joycons are loose out of the box, i have 4 sets and they're all looser on the left side
Lennon Wagner same
Same with me
same. just left side.
You know punching the joycons off the switch probably isn't helping
I was thinking the same thing.
it's a demonstration
he´s not looking for help, he is demostrating the point to us
Diego Quichiz
But still, if you had to demonstrate points that made your own problems worse you’d basically just be getting nowhere yourself and making things a little harder to solve.
Jamie 〜 emm nope, because all that he do its pre thought. I mean, he knows that he have a problem there, but if he demostrate the point the way he do its because he knows its not gonna cause worst consecuences. Also, this shows up better in the next videos where he tries some solutions, and finally solve the problem - demostrating the differences between a video that is focused on solve the problem and other that just want to show it, like this one-. And, obviously, he's using it to explanate the video, so its false that he is "gettin nowhere". He's making the video more comprehensive.
I'm gonna buy a switch and i am very happy that i watched this video... because, if one of those thinks happen, ill be able to fix it... or maybe it wont even get that far like the problem with the joy cons... thank you
DuckGamez
What? XD
It was in the trailer and it can be seen in pic's... Its the biggest part of the switch... thats why there is the mode "tabletop mode", where you have the switch on your table and you play with the joy cons
Der Gamer I'd say save up a little more money so you have a game to play
Der Gamer the problem with the joycon isn't "that far" it's probably the most common fault
Sadly you cannot do much to that issue with joycons it is more about luck how tough plastic parts you get. My left joycon lock has chipped almost half way while right side is in pristine condition. I have used those only myself and i know that i have not abused them anyway different, the left joycon lock just has inferior plastic. I am considering to buy metal locks from ebay and also replacement screws for joycons because i've heard once you open those screws it will be almost impossible to get them all back. This is a safety measure created by nintendo so they see if people have tampered with their joycons.
Me: I don't have Nintendo
Also me: watching the whole video
The way you just smack the switch made me cringe...
Bagel Man the way you stole something from a kids channel and used it as your name and icon makes me cringe.
what... you obviously have no idea why i have my pfp
RedEx it's from SomethingElseYT though
RedEx y-your a fucking idiot.
Doggymomo 84 how about you make me.
bruh
Well they can take a lot of beating ;p ofc he was only on about the worn out locking mechanism
And also make them even more damaged
I like your energy, and as a durability freak I do really enjoy these tips ^_^
That could very well be. Though I don't understand what this has to do with anything since I never claimed we were alike? :/
haha, they do look alike a bit. But this is Gilgamesh from the Fate/Stay series ^_^

Are you the voice on the Headspace ads? Heheh Just joking. 😂 Your voice is very calming. 😃
because he know how to fix it
Now that you mention it, he does sound like that person
Holy shit he does sound like it u need more credit for this comment 😂
1:21 "Dont bend it in the middle"
*Proceeds to bend in the middle*
He was showing us lightly
Kris Saitro exactly
He still bends it
I Don't Know What My Name Should Be he said: “ Don’t bend it LIKE I’m doing here.” You clearly don’t know what a demonstration is
@@nobleshad when did he say that? 1:21 He said "dont bend it in the middle there". You clearly dont have ears
Those air bubbles under your screen protector would drive me insane.
JHDK same
I alway think im bad at putting screen protectors on then i see something like this im glad mine is just a bit off centered lol
Me too i have ocd
That's why I took mine off
IKR
9:10 mymatevince : Nintendo could make the plastic insert metal . Nintendo: *releases switch lite* problem fixed with no joycons
You can find metal replacements for those plastic stoppers for the joy con on Amazon.
Where? I dont find them
where?
arjoze _ just look up nintendo switch metal joycon latch and the product itself will usually be titled “metal lock buckles” or “replacement latches” or something similar. Warning, it requires the disassembly of your joycons to replace the latches (feel like that was kinda obvious but gotta make sure) and although some of the latches do come with a triwing screwdriver that you can use, I’ve heard they aren’t exactly the greatest so take that as you will. Also maybe look up a joycon disassembly video in case you’ve never done it, and doing the replacement may or may not void any possible warranty on your switch (I’m not up to date with current warranty regulations, look it up if you want)
Aren't the plastic stoppers a planned fault? Meaning if you drop your switch and the joycon hits the ground first it gets disconnected and doesn't do damage to the console itself.
@@ApeBlin nope. Physics would say that if it snaps off it is even worse. If it falls on the joycon rounded corner the shock is carried to the switch, and as it disconnects, the switch tablet's corner will also hit the ground, causing a second shock and it makes it twice as likely to break the screen. Shock from the joycon does depend on the angle of the fall however.
"You can see it's making the sound again"
Great video!
the 3rd one is bassically "how to damge your switch controllers even more" with how much he hitting them
Useful video. The second tip helped me when the right Joy-Con suddenly disconnected from my Switch when it was still physically attached. Thanks, Vince! 😊🎮🕹️
This video is very educational and its even more convenient for us to actually SEE how to not do these things to the switch and such unlike others who just say it. Great vid!
for the bending the kickstand i would recomend hitting it with a hair dryer for a couple seconds on high heat to soften the plastic so that it bends faster and doesnt stress the plastic which could eventually lead to it snapping or breaking
Best bit of advice right here! I've never even held a Switch so I can't comment specifically on the quality of the plastic used on the stand but cheap plastic has a tendency of being brittle so bending it like in the video will lead to it snapping. Always heat plastic just enough to make it more malleable before attempting to bend it then give it a few minutes to let it cool afterwards. Only takes a few more minutes to do and will save a lot of people from breaking their stands
2:30 that voice crack tho
Swiᶦᶦᶦᶦᶦᶦᵗᶜʰ Sound

lmao, imagine giving a single fuck on how a person pronounces his words
Dint realizr
Are u dumb
People: wHy Do I hAvE dRiFt!!!!!
Vince: flicks joy con half way across the room
Meanwhile there’s a 5 year old sitting across me with a NINTENDO SWITCH
Kermit Editzz that was probably me
It's easy just use FLEX TAPE.
I sawed this switch in half
Flex seal
And repaired it with only flex tape
THATSALOTADAMAGE
dead meme
I don’t even have a switch I and I still watched the whole thing.
UA-camr: stop flicking the stand with ur little finger!!!
Son: but it my makes my fingers warm.
This video is so helpful! But I will say that the way you treat them is kinda scary and funny at the same time! Great vid Vince.
My right joy con comes off very easily likely because my idiot brother put the strap on backwards multiple times
Max Castillon i accidently put it on wrong and it already doesnt catch
I hope there's a (common)replacement parts of joycons available.
Maybe broken spare joycons&y-shaped screw driver + healthy dose of manual reading would help you.
Sorry bout that
I got mad because I always put them on right and it still comes off so wear just happens normally
Swoosh of Life ya same
Love watching Nintendo switch videos
Same there really satisfying
LORD JIGGLE SACK same, but i don’t even have one.
I watch them even though I don't have one because it's just so satisfying to hear those little clicks and just learn about the Switch before I get one
ME TOO AND 100TH LIKE!!!! NP!!!
Liata ikr
I personally don't have a nintendo switch but something just made me watch this video ...
Same lol
Same
Same lol
The way he mishandled his Switch made me cringe terribly.
In a way, yes... but a Nintendo console, especially one designed to be portable, has to be able to take that sort of abuse.
No it doesn't have to take that sort of abuse. It's not Nintendo's fault that some people are too stupid to use their things carefully. This isn't fucking lego, it's an expensive electronic device.
Golden Gaming I felt the same way
Lillyz dude chill out
fartsnstuf it's not Duracell's fault if you suck batteries, why should it be Nintendo's fault if you're rough with your toys?
ive had my switch on dark mode so long i forgot it had a light mode💀
Me too 😂
xD
I've had it on dark so long that when i put it on light i go blind 😃👍
I like the dark side more tho lol
I'm glad I watched this. I got a switch last year for my bday and randomly stumbled upon this video and found it more helpful then I thought. Very useful, I will remember this
I fixed my joy con charging problem because this video thank you
