## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by A***E on June 29, 2025*

I was surprised how soft the shell felt! I like how it comes with the screwdrivers you need and their own screws. It fits perfectly and I love the colors. Took me a little but bc it was my first time, but it wasn't super difficult to figure it out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looks so nice, and works so well!
*by N***E on May 17, 2025*

I get plenty of compliments on my Joy-Cons when I bring my console out with me. Love the nostalgia feel too, I used to play with this same controller color scheme on SNES when I was a kid, so I’m very happy!Disclaimer: This does require some in-depth installation, being that it’s just a shell for the Joy-Cons. Installation experience and space is recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great custom shell but..
*by J***E on April 17, 2025*

First of all, these are great custom shells for the Nintendo Switch joycons. The plastic feels very soft in your hands compared to the original plastic. I think the D pad variation is also very unique and it's easy on your fingers. Now as for the not so good aspects of this product, the tools could be a lot better. You're paying $20 which is a lot considering that on AliExpress, many of the part swap kits cost as low as $2 and come with high quality magnetic tipped screwdrivers, tweezers, and plastic smudger tools. The tools this product gives you are not good quality. I'd insist on purchasing tools elsewhere because the installation for this is very advanced and requires a lot of patience and time and you don't want to make this harder than it needs to be. Overall, this is a great purchase for the shells alone considering you can't find custom shells like this on AliExpress for cheap so you get what you pay for. PS, for those that want to change the color of the joycons when you connect them to the switch, there's some software out there that lets you do it easily. Its windows only but if you search for gbatemp joycon toolkit you should find it.
