My modded switch lite with new shell and joycons! Got these from aliexpress since the original shell was cracked and the joycons had some dead zones. Whole process took about 3.5 hours (with child interruptions). I had some pics of the soldering but seem to have lost them.
Anyone have a good site to check on Switch 2 mod chip or custom firmware progress that’s not reddit or wololo?
What’s wrong with wololo?
Nothing. The site owner commented on a thread that they’re no longer interested in continuing actively writing for the site and was looking to sell the domain
Now THAT is cool! I love how the shell and everything looks!!
How hard is a modchip to install? I am shit at microsoldering
Definitely takes practice. I’ve done a little microsoldering before but I also practiced moving components around on an old motherboard beforehand. Unless you have absolutely fantastic eyes a microscope is required.
I have chipped a normal and lite switch, the soldering itself is not the worst but seeing what you’re doing is hard.
Plus on the switch lite, take great care about the battery connector. It’s super fragile and can pull out when disconnecting it
Oooh I thought you added joycons to your lite. You mean you replaced your joysticks, right?
Yep just replaced the joysticks.
Cool! The shell looks fantastic as well.
