1
00:00:04,940 --> 00:00:12,540
how does he keep doing that are you tired of your switch playing

2
00:00:10,380 --> 00:00:17,880
every game like its Initial D just drifting all over the place there's a

3
00:00:15,540 --> 00:00:22,199
solution the ghoulie kit joy-con replacement sticks they use hall effect

4
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:26,400
sensors which are like their sensors that detect magnets four screws and a

5
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:31,320
ribbon cable and I can get this installed and that's all that I need now if you've never worked with ghouli kits

6
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:37,200
stuff before I mean they've got a couple of controllers out they've got the King Kong 2 controller for the switch they've

7
00:00:35,340 --> 00:00:40,860
got the elves controller which is also for the switch we're going to look at

8
00:00:38,700 --> 00:00:44,820
these let's open them up the major upside to a hall effect sensor is that

9
00:00:43,079 --> 00:00:48,899
there's no actual parts that are touching each other nothing's wearing

10
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:53,399
away as time goes on your joysticks are going to last a lot longer alright these

11
00:00:51,239 --> 00:00:56,039
are small and dark so we can't really see them very well on this Northern

12
00:00:54,840 --> 00:01:00,899
Lights desk pad available at lttstore.com only thing left to do now

13
00:00:58,620 --> 00:01:04,860
is get them installed all right it's time for us to grab our handy dandy tool

14
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,040
kit we're gonna open this thing up and we're gonna put these in here now we've

15
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:13,320
got four screws we've got to take out one two three and four now I haven't

16
00:01:11,159 --> 00:01:17,820
done a ton of controller repairs before on newer consoles I've never actually

17
00:01:15,900 --> 00:01:22,200
opened up a switch before I've opened up the different Dev kits I'm usually the

18
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:27,479
person to do the dev kit videos with a couple of exceptions so we've got our

19
00:01:24,659 --> 00:01:31,799
four screws out now so it makes me wonder what the next step is here it

20
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:35,340
keeps trying to pair so I'm just going to start shoving pieces of plastic

21
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:39,079
inside of other pieces of plastic and hope for the best here oh oh and you're

22
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:43,560
starting to open up here a little bit unfortunately this has been de-branded

23
00:01:41,939 --> 00:01:48,420
we're gonna have to break through the debranding it looks like oh no see this

24
00:01:46,860 --> 00:01:52,920
not sure if you can see that that's what happens when you just lose control oh

25
00:01:51,299 --> 00:01:58,680
come on come on there we go and this is what the inside

26
00:01:55,860 --> 00:02:02,700
of it looks like so we've got two ribbon cables we've got one right here which is

27
00:02:00,479 --> 00:02:07,200
easy enough to get at and we've got what appears to be one underneath the battery

28
00:02:05,340 --> 00:02:12,360
okay we're gonna go in from this side and then push this up to take the

29
00:02:09,599 --> 00:02:15,060
battery out instead of prying it off now the HD Rumble wire is just getting in

30
00:02:13,860 --> 00:02:17,660
the way so I'm going to move that over for a second

31
00:02:18,599 --> 00:02:24,720
it works properly all right so the next thing that we need to do is actually get

32
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:29,520
this plastic part here off because if we look at this matching up with the back

33
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:34,080
of this we can see hey let's probably the joystick that's right there so we've

34
00:02:31,980 --> 00:02:39,300
got three screws we need to remove we've got one here one over here and one

35
00:02:37,140 --> 00:02:44,459
somewhere over by my finger we've got this ribbon cable just over here that

36
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:49,620
does connect up to this it does connect up to this shoulder button here so we'll

37
00:02:47,819 --> 00:02:54,599
really need to remove that I don't think as long as we are very gentle with it oh

38
00:02:52,379 --> 00:02:57,300
hey hey it flipped upwards just like it's supposed to

39
00:02:55,860 --> 00:03:03,360
and we should be able to just get underneath it and pull it up oh we did

40
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:08,220
it get these two Phillips head screws out

41
00:03:05,459 --> 00:03:12,360
okay now we can compare them side by side the color of the ribbon cable is

42
00:03:10,379 --> 00:03:17,220
different here they are on the back the blue is the original and the Amber is

43
00:03:14,879 --> 00:03:22,019
the ghouie kit okay so actually slipping it in the actual top of the joystick if

44
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:27,540
I can get that in a way that you can see it yeah it doesn't actually fit in

45
00:03:25,379 --> 00:03:32,159
perfectly it does kind of pull on that a little bit but you just kind of force it

46
00:03:30,180 --> 00:03:35,400
through ever so gently maybe move it back and forth a little bit it'll find

47
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:40,739
its way in there now the hardest part is making this

48
00:03:37,980 --> 00:03:43,500
ribbon cable right here go back in its home

49
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:47,580
in hindsight it's a lot easier to start with the ribbon cable and then go from

50
00:03:45,540 --> 00:03:53,400
there all right we got ourselves a nice little pair of iFixit tweezers put that

51
00:03:50,220 --> 00:03:56,879
little little black tab back down and

52
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:58,379
then get our joystick into place and I

53
00:03:56,879 --> 00:04:02,459
really should not be putting the stress on this I really should have you know

54
00:03:59,879 --> 00:04:06,900
gone in here and flipped that up and taken this out to put this off to the

55
00:04:04,739 --> 00:04:12,420
side earlier I just didn't because I'm lazy oh my God why did I disconnect this

56
00:04:09,299 --> 00:04:15,239
this is so difficult there we go take

57
00:04:12,420 --> 00:04:20,280
our screws screw this back in there before this can go back on we've now got

58
00:04:18,239 --> 00:04:24,720
our joystick screwed in we're going to have to put our oh what button is this I

59
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:29,880
don't play the switch enough okay it's R it's our right button so

60
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:33,780
this is currently being held in by two tiny plastic tabs there I'm not sure if

61
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:39,419
you can see that that looks about right now there we go that looks about the way

62
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:45,240
that it was when we opened it right sure the battery if I had to take a guess

63
00:04:42,180 --> 00:04:47,699
it's going to go with the wires facing

64
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:51,840
upwards and then we can just press it down oh look at that look at that I did

65
00:04:49,979 --> 00:04:56,340
it I did the thing back in

66
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:59,880
batteries and it's housing we're going to press it down because there's

67
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:04,460
two-sided tape underneath it but first let me stall to tell you about our

71
00:05:15,540 --> 00:05:21,660
get it it's unboxing like on ShortCircuit what we do here here's a quick

72
00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:26,699
look at what we got LMG cribs Colton Potter I've been to Colton's house Paris

73
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,979
Phillips oh Mac Address bloopers that that's got to be good I wonder if that

76
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:44,940
I have the joy-con reassembled let's give it a test though I do have this

77
00:05:42,180 --> 00:05:48,780
mismatched left joy-con which does have the original joystick still in it so

78
00:05:46,919 --> 00:05:52,820
let's give this a shot immediately I do notice a fair bit of

79
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:58,979
difference the ghouie kit

80
00:05:55,680 --> 00:06:00,900
version feels a lot rounder when you go

81
00:05:58,979 --> 00:06:05,820
around the outside like you can't feel the different points to it or if you can

82
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:09,780
there's only four points I don't know if that's necessarily better I think you

83
00:06:08,340 --> 00:06:13,380
could put these side by side and somebody wouldn't necessarily be able to

84
00:06:11,699 --> 00:06:18,539
tell unless they knew exactly what they were looking for when they felt it all

85
00:06:15,780 --> 00:06:22,560
right let's try it out okay so what I'm seeing here is that it's very much

86
00:06:20,639 --> 00:06:27,900
calibrated over to the side I'm not a big fan of that uh so if I hold it right

87
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:33,300
here it's in center but recalibrate only if there is a problem there is calibrate

88
00:06:30,660 --> 00:06:37,560
move it towards the triangle and release it

89
00:06:34,860 --> 00:06:42,360
calibration complete oh hey look at that I'm not a huge snob about dead zones

90
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:45,960
typically but I do notice that when we move it just a little bit it does start

91
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:49,199
to move that's good enough by me maybe you will have a different experience

92
00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:53,340
with it maybe there is some Smash Brothers players out there who really

93
00:06:51,060 --> 00:06:58,919
enjoy using joy-cons for whatever reason for their Smash brothering and they

94
00:06:56,460 --> 00:07:03,060
notice a dead zone that is extremely make or break for them okay so on the

95
00:07:01,139 --> 00:07:07,979
standard joystick I'm still not noticing much of a dead zone so I don't believe

96
00:07:05,580 --> 00:07:12,840
there is a huge Dead Zone to begin with the major selling point no drift that's

97
00:07:10,919 --> 00:07:16,500
the only difference I'm noticing that's the only difference there really needs

98
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:20,759
to be because at the end of the day so many people have drift problems that the

99
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:25,139
ability to have a joy-con that you know won't drift that's worth a lot

100
00:07:23,580 --> 00:07:30,000
here we go now we can do something with this

101
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:35,580
because you can control the camera with it hey look at that we can get it just very

102
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:41,280
slowly moving like that look at that faster slower faster slower yeah yeah

103
00:07:38,940 --> 00:07:44,520
this is this is the way of water right now

104
00:07:42,060 --> 00:07:49,139
yeah there we go overall I think there's not really much

105
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:54,060
of a difference here The Only Exception is you're not going to get stick drift

106
00:07:51,780 --> 00:07:57,900
that's a pretty good selling feature I think if you've dealt with some small

107
00:07:55,919 --> 00:08:01,199
ribbon cables before probably not gonna be the hardest thing in the world for

108
00:07:58,979 --> 00:08:05,819
you overall difficulty I'd say it's probably about a seven out of ten does

109
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:10,819
cost about 30 US Dollars whereas a joy-con typically costs about 40 US

110
00:08:08,039 --> 00:08:15,000
dollars so that ten dollar difference seems worth it to me thanks for watching

ghoulie kit joy-con joystick

114
00:08:25,860 --> 00:08:32,640
is that Ghillie kit why would it be Ghillie kit do you see

115
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:36,560
do you see it wearing one of those suits that Dennis always loves to wear when

116
00:08:34,140 --> 00:08:36,560
he's hiding
