I customized some joycons for my steam deck

I have a switch, I hate the switch controllers so much. Way too damn small. Glad my ps4 controller works on the switch so I can use a normal feeling controller.

Without the NFC & ir camera, I bet the right one was much easier than a Nintendo branded one. Normally it's like wrangling an octopus when you put it all back together.

@klay They look good. I’ve always wanted to mod the shell of Switch Joy Cons, but I’m too afraid of the ribbon cable

Don't be afraid! A new ribbon cable will cost you a few dollars if something goes wrong.

That's the beauty of buying used! Less financial investment. In this case I went for knock-offs but I usually mod used controllers.
