The coloring of the case is quite cool. Purple is my favorite color and i also love anything sparkly. We choose to go with gold and black combo, which we both think looks less gaudy.

Everything fits together snug and the kit comes with the screwdrivers needed to take the beast apart. The only problem i had is that i tried to use the included tri-wing screwdriver and it is not a good fit for the back plate screws.



Cons

I was almost finished assembling the right joycon after finishing the backplate and left joycon. The screwdrivers that were included in the kit are so low quality you might as well throw them away as soon as you get them. It comes with zero instructio...  Read More

    The media could not be loaded

    But do not buy this thinking its just 5 or 6 screws like when you change out a cover for an xbox controller or something


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    You have to completely disassemble the controllers and even unhook ribbon wires and chips inside so set aside time and patience for this


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Youll also need a good pair of pointy tweezers for the ribbon wires that is not included


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There are no drawings or directions just a youtube video so you have to pause and rewind a lot to see exactly what is being unhooked
