Joy-Con Grip Modification

[@MrMonke517]

Its crazy that 7 years later i think of this, and there happens to be a video exatly proving my point. XD

[@robertchen7819]

Have a crystal clear case on my joy con , so it won't fit. This is exactly what I need

[@fiendnewsnetwork9639]

Awesome! Glad you found it useful!

[@kodaxed]

I cannot ruin the 12 month warranty so gonna have to wait until next year! Rip

[@davidball.]

Same

[@ultra-1320]

I’m late to the party but does this work on the Nintendo joycon charging grip?

[@JbAguy]

Can I buy it ?

[@Anna_Crossing]

ik this is a slightly old video, but as a disabled person (radial club hands) I've never been able to use any type of controller. The switch in handheld mode is fine, but I wouldn't be able to play it when docked and detached joy cons, I've been searching for a replacement and no disability accessible controllers are quite what I needed. I just needed something that would lay flat on a table. Thank you for this!! literal career saver lol (I'm wanting to record my switch and make KZbin videos)

[@fiendnewsnetwork9639]

We are so happy to hear this helped you!! Thank you for sharing this!!

[@NovaIsTheBot]

Very thankful for this. The middle piece apparently works well with the new mobapad m6 joucons. I think it'll match perfectly.

[@EthanMastercrafter]

aww it's now a cute controller

[@solomonkane408]

Thanks for this easy and solved my issue. I owe you a 🍻.

[@Slash_ld]

Ty dude, looking to try a few modification with the confort grip, this whas just what I needed, thanks!

[@jabbybabby]

Thanks a lot for this mod! However I did go through hell and high water to get this done I had to drill a hole in the inside of the case where the joycons go. You cant see it now, but it took 2 hours. ( one screw stripped terribly bad ) I really like how this turned out though, I love the way it looks and feels in your hand, so much better than the original grip Thanks though, I love it now!

[@Ren722]

My dog chewed up my grip so this is actually a win-win for me

[@Spintechfilms]

its a good mod if your tight on space in your bag for when you travel

[@zeththedarkmage]

Spintechfilms yes, I loved throwing the connector in the mesh pocket of the official carrying case for when I would play in kickstand.

[@omegafire6253]

thats the exact idea i have in mind, only with modifying the generic grip, much easier and basic to disasemble.

[@PongbyAtari]

Now I can charge my NOS NES controllers without having to attach them to my Switch great helpful video thanks 😊

[@SpxcyMxyo]

Great for joycon alternatives.

[@RLaquatics]

I'm here for a more portible version of a joy in grip

[@xhiumra2750]

Thank u for this my joy con grip was different from others and I finally found a video that showed how to modify the joy con grip I have.

[@orochimauro777]

I'm looking a video like this. I would like change the color of my handgrips. I thought than in the inside of the grip had some cables but only have the lights. Nice video ❤

[@Randuski]

Definitely not always reversible. Screws were way too “on there” destroyed the tops trying to get them out. Had to buy a new one, and it was more successful. Although the joy cons rattle like no body’s business

[@BeccaBasilisk]

What size/type of Tri Wing do you need?? Because I bought one and it's either too big/small because it's just stripping the screws and won't turn xx

[@1Stunna2323]

Becca Goodson I too would like to know this.

[@JoshuaBirnholz]

Same problem here! I have Tri-Wing screwdriver that is working fine for the screws on the back of the grip, and the screws on the Joy-Cons themselves, but the screws on the inside of the grip are just being stripped! :/

[@zeththedarkmage]

Becca Goodson the sizes are 0 and 00. the ones that I purchased off of eBay were all the same size and it worked for both without striping any. you might need to get a security bit set that will have the y0 and y00 sizes.

[@omegafire6253]

Joshua Birnholz , try buying the generic grip from ebay. it just has the four screws on back, and uses the cross screws.

[@cheepasskid7357]

i know it's 10 mos. ago but if anyone's reading this still you should use a rubber band between the screwdriver head and screw. just screw the rubber band into the screw and it'll act as a grip so it won't strip. nintendo makes those screws INSANELY soft. it's incredible how easy they are to strip.

[@kryptonkandor]

Great video i was already thinking of doing this and had an idea. I am using this to put the Hori Pro Pad on here 😅

[@pombom1]

Where you bought that red case, look so nice

[@7531monkey]

Was just searching web for a grip with no ‘wings’ because of this issue, glad I found your video, thanks! Btw, if anyone has a PowerA grip, its even easier, just four phillips unscrewed on back and wings come off.

[@EwanJP2001]

i tried doing this but the triwing screwed started breaking down when i tried to take them out EDIT: nvm i got it figured out after reading some comments :P now I've realised how wobbly my joy cons are

[@bitelaserkhalif]

Nice, I'll try it at home. I have 3rd party joycon that doesn't fit there

[@inderpalsinghsidhu7106]

The force is strong in him

[@samufinland5765]

I wish there was a way to attach something like the Joycon grips to individual Joycons for that extra grip no matter if you use the separately, on the Switch on that modified grip you just showed

[@zeththedarkmage]

Samu Rönkkö there is a mod for this. it involves cutting the grip handle in half and gluing or magnetizing the handles to the joy cons. maybe I can do a video on that in the future.

[@joje90aj17]

Samu Rönkkö they have things like that

[@Hutch2Much]

these triwings are like impossible to unscrew! any tips?

[@StevenReviews]

push tight and go slow you will strip them if your're not careful

[@sebastianreyesmeza4761]

Try using a rubber band

[@anacesandoval4952]

What number of Tri wing did you use? I have Y00 and does not work

[@anacesandoval4952]

Did you resolve the problem? I’m looking for the right Tri Wing but it does not say it

[@cashstillrules]

​@@anacesandoval4952y2.0 worked for me

[@flatwhite3798]

This is awesome, thanks dude.

[@Hadeks_Marow]

OMG THANK YOU! I owned the Hori's Split Pad Pros for a long time now and I love their back buttons so much that I needed to turn it into a normal controller. Nintendo has an OFFICIAL USB charging grip and I'm wondering if I can use that to give the split pads a wired communication so that they don't have to be connected to the switch tablet. If so, then they can be used in TV mode. The handles get in the way but your video will fix that. I just hope the USB communicates rather than just sends power.

[@id10t87]

soooo...did it work?

[@Hadeks_Marow]

Kent Pueblo Still don’t have the screwdriver set to take it apart. It. . . has been on my mind though. Even this exact video just under 2 months later.

[@jordanbro8457]

I just picked up the split pad and was wondering if this mod of the comfort grip will work with them. Any luck?

[@h.silvagaming]

Worked or not, i need to know please.

[@Hadeks_Marow]

@@h.silvagaming I never got the tri-wing screw driver set. I seriously have been slacking!!!!!!!!! _AHHHHHHHH~_

[@Hdiwbjsow]

Who just has a tri-head 😂

[@PURO_EDITZ78]

I don’t 😂

[@NovaIsTheBot]

Anyone who has done mods like this. Or any tech repair stuff.

[@WolfloreSchrodinger]

Got to the last 2 screws before it was completely dissembled, and they were stripped before I even started taking it apart, so I tried putting it back together, and now when I slide my joycons in, they're wobbly. Any advice?

[@shippernessity]

Do you have an information of what size of screwdriver to get? Because I bought a 1.5mm tri-wing, it can open joy-con screws but it can strip comfort grip's screws. Can I use 2mm or 2.5mm instead?

[@bingpong2938]

I tried doing this but i keep stripping the screws. Its put on so tight

[@djmula25]

Yeah I like that mod

[@bearboonie2038]

Is there a way to manage this without the tri wing screwdriver

[@annecasa1]

I have a triwing but I does not fit my grip at all It looks about the same as the one you used but it just won’t unscrew the screws Any help?

[@JbAguy]

You can put the pro joycons on there

[@Reziqll]

Gunna do this for my split pad pro

[@hotcocoabomb_]

The split pad pro is not wireless

[@brett2861]

what about the joycon charge grips from Nintendo which is the same as this grip can I do this mod with the joycon charge grip?

[@I-Like-Fire]

I actually tried to do it today but the tri wing screws wont budge, did you have a similar issue and used more force to remove them? If not my screw driver might not be good enough quality

[@TheironkageGG]

Does the joycon grip work with the Hori Split pad pro

[@ferroth]

Are the bottom two tri wings really hard to get out or its it just me

[@anacesandoval4952]

I can’t get any of them out!!

[@josephcobb6228]

i can’t undo the screws..

[@101fdioklujyhtngbvfrdclokijm]

Joseph Cobb then get your parents

[@gregorygordon2938]

Where did you get the gel grips?

[@yoshi6445]

I didnt have a tri wing screwdriver so i had to spend 2hrs trying to find out how to pry it apart. I ended up just hitting it with a hammer until it worked

[@Henry-kn9zg]

I like your Nintendo joy-con case, it looks like its made out of rubber and also your joy-con's grips too. Very nice I like it, do you think you can link the place of where you brought them. Thanks 😊

[@adarshabasnet2491]

Use smaller and larger scissors it will help

[@manoelaventin7420]

Very helpful thanks

[@MrMartellSincere]

Great mod, man 👍😁👍 P.S. I've subscribe to your channel

[@fiendnewsnetwork9639]

Thanks! Glad you liked the mod!

[@MrMartellSincere]

@@fiendnewsnetwork9639 of course. It's dope man

[@jamesa800]

hey, we're looking for the size of the tri wing screwdriver. Help us out. It looks like I got the exact one as yours but mine wont turn, it actually just broke the tip of my screwdriver!!!

[@jamesa800]

Nvm, 58 subscribers? You def aren't around anymore, so I doubt I get an answer. "Fiend News" yea channel is dead

[@flolfiest]

My screws got stripped help

[@brylecedrik5055]

Cool beans

[@mccordj3413]

Can you do this mod with the charging grip?

[@zeththedarkmage]

mccordj3413 looking at the dissassembly video of the charging grip, it appears all the necessary components for charging are in the middle piece so this mod should be doable on a charging grip.

[@mccordj3413]

Mark Cochran do you have the link to that video? Thank you

[@SpectralDynamite]

I don't have a video for it, but I did it with my own Charging Grip. It's the same process. Just don't touch any of the circuitry inside and you'll be fine. Works like a dream for me.

[@zonex449]

Cool

[@TheGamingGuavaFruit]

Instead of getting screwdrivers just get a power A comfort grip which is easier to teardown

[@Ethos10128]

Oh yea yea

[@glasssawsslipperstraws7410]

There's no way to do this without a triwing screwdriver is there?

[@patrickinaswagjumper]

fanta orange yes there is just go AND FIND IT OUT.

[@MATAM29]

Use a flathead screwdriver.

[@Skippy-id9yt]

Buy different brand grips from game store ffs

[@ProtoPropski]

What about the charge grip

[@peeexgee]

the lastg screw fucking tore

[@jellibean1286]

Bought a set of triwing screws. Tried to unscrew it and then I ended up stripping the screws so no u wasted $10

[@chakkraphongtadking584]

Ya now i know how to do instead of just Breaking this sh**

[@coffee.coyote]

Can you use hori Splitpad Pro / Compact with this moded grip?

[@Gala_KM]

no.

[@cashstillrules]

​@@Gala_KM What? How would it not work?

[@j0hn78121]

i will forever hate nintendo for always using soft screws. (and my inability to be more careful as ive stripped a screw on my 3ds years ago as well)

[@BogusLettuce]

Absolute terrible design nintendo. I used the EXACT screwdriver needed and somehow still ended up stripping the tri-wing screws??

[@mewstoise5505]

thats because you stripped the screws. it has nothing to do with the screwdriver or screw

[@joje90aj17]

I totally can't tell you like LoZ

[@root8able]

why the fck does nintendo use tri-head screws?

[@cashstillrules]

Because it's nintendo

[@ACGTA]

thanks i looking how take a part that shitty grip haha ❤

[@syrusorelio2309]

would this modification work of charge grip?

[@shippernessity]

Help! I stripped mine 😭

Who doesn’t have that screw..

Wow the grip has four screw drivers in them? Lol. 😁

[@fiendnewsnetwork9639]

You must be fun at parties. ;)

[@MobileDecay]

Fiend News Network If you give me 4 screw drivers. 😁

[@MinnesotaTwinsFan94]

but why?

[@kennethmitchell6841]

The grips he is using prevent you from using the connector unless you take off the handles.

[@zeththedarkmage]

Collin Scherber For me there was three reasons. 1. The joy-con covers can't be used with the joy con grip and since I mostly play in handheld mode I don't want to have to remove them to in the less frequent times I play docked. 2. The grip can now fit in my case and come with me for when I play in tabletop mode. 3. I didn't like the handles because they way it caused me to hold the grip I would frequently hit the R button and throw my good weapons away in Zelda.

[@MinnesotaTwinsFan94]

Kenneth Mitchell but arent the grips only useful for detatched joycons? I have a hard time believing that those grips together are more comfortable than the grip they provide you.

[@kennethmitchell6841]

Collin Scherber maybe they aren't more comfortable this way but it makes it more convenient I suppose so you aren't always taking off the covers

[@joje90aj17]

Collin Scherber why? because it's more comfortable

[@araresu9133]

nice video but why are you so damn slow

[@Stratilex]

You have less subs than me...... And I don'g even have videos!
