The last upload of 2020! Love you guys!
With the Animal crossing switch being scalped 9 months after its release for way more than $299, I found a way for you to make your own custom switch for just $35! In this video I show you how to make your own #animalcrossing switch special edition, using an Animal Crossing Joycon Shell swap, a switch backplate replacement, and a complete switch dock shell replacement. This is my second custom joycon project and my biggest project on this channel ever! We go over hot to shell swap your animal crossing switch dock, how to make your own animal crossing shells, and animal crossing backplate! The dock even has all the little tom nook characters too!
This is one of the best Nintendo switch mods I've done so far! best part is, there's no longer any need to figure out how to get an animal crossing switch when you can make your own! Hope you guys enjoy! It's been a great year uploading and creating content for you guys 🥰

  • From experience, I feel like undoing all the ribbons for the Joycons is much better than leaving them in because its less messy and you’re less likely to break anything. Also if you’re doing this for your personal switch I don’t think you need to go fast, it only saves a considerable amount of time if you work in a repair environment and you do a lot of shell swaps (which isn’t even that common anyway)

    • Don't feel too bad. Modding the switch also means losing the warranty. Which would mean that if you messed it up, and Nintendo could be able to tell you had been opening the switch or joycons up, they would refuse to help you. This is super cool, but only something one should do if they know how to do it right. I have seen so many people write about having broken their joycons etc. by modding them. I'm not against modding AT ALL

    • How much did you sell yours for? I sold my V1 for $250 so only “loss” $50. Totally worth it IMO because I didn’t have to look for adequate parts or worry about voiding my warranty. I’ve already taken full advantage of it once because of the joycon drift issue.

    • I don’t think they’d really care as long as you bought the switch. Both versions have the same retail price, so they aren’t gaining anything from you buying from the price scalpers vs buying a different version and customizing it. In fact, if they sold the parts needed to customize it, they’d stand to make even more money with minimal extra work, since they can sell the parts without needing to assemble them.

  • I recently picked up an animal crossing switch from Wal-Mart even after seeing this guide. I decided to sell my old Nintendo switch to my sister who wanted a switch for about 150 half the price of the original switch. My sister wanted an animal crossing switch as well, but couldn't afford 300 so this guide was very helpful for her! Since it was an older switch she did buy the shell definitely made the console feel like new, and the replacement of the joycon shells gave them that feel of being new without that feeling of the paint being worn down from sweat. Over all she basically got an animal crossing switch for only 185, 150 being from me selling her the switch and the 35 being from the shells so overall this saved her money! Thank you for this guide!

    • I left the cables attached for my first customization. All except the joystick cable… it makes it a lot easier. IMO, it’s more risky for a beginner to disconnect and reconnect a ribbon cable than it is to just leave them alone. I had never done any kind of electronics work or modification, and I knew I’d have trouble plugging the cables back in. If you’re extremely delicate and pay attention, it shouldn’t cause any issues to leave them plugged in.
