Hope this helps to warn people about correctly removing the joy cons from the Nintendo Switch to avoid bigger problems down the track! #nintendo #nintendoswitcholed #nintendoswitch #gaming #nintendotips #shorts
“Make sure when you use the switch, you are pointing the screen toward you, this ensures you can get a visual on your gaming experience and really helps play the switch”
@@bbb_888 so to play a game, do all of these steps : 1 - press the power button at the top of your switch, or press home button below right stick 2 - buy a game on the nintendo eshop or go into a shop which sell games 3 - now you can play a game, but if you bought a game in a shop, you have to use the game card
Next time you need to turn the light make sure to press the switch on your wall, because if you use a lighter you may end up damaging your electrical system.
@@randomuser9459 should be memento vivere, given that they've now made several versions of the console, but Nintendo's more interested in cashing up on malfunctioning joy-cons by selling a pair of these at an outrageous price. My 20 € joy-cons I bought on Amazon are way more comfortable and I haven't had a problem with em for the three or so years I've owned them. F Nintendo.
@@Zeroshiki I have gone through three sets of joycons (all with verying issues like the classic joycon drift, buttons just stopped working, and not connecting when detached) and finally just bought a pro controller.
You can’t, or shouldn’t be able to, it gives resistance when you try to take it out without the buttons, I don’t know why anyone thought it’s normal for the joycons to resist coming off lol
I remember I sneezed while holding my switch in really weird way and when I looked I only had the joy cons in my hands and the screen was across the room
"Now when you turn your console off, you're going to want to use the power button. Don't just smash the Switch into your desk until the screen goes black like I did."
@@Fin3sse prob both my brother got it when the switch had recently came out and then it has been used heavily by a lot of people including my sister who isn’t the best at keeping things intact as one of the joy cons after she damaged it is unable to be used for couch co-op anymore as it’s horizontal use(for stuff like mario cart with another player)is broken as well as controller drift happens and when they are on the switch they come off super easily on the controller frame it’s a bit better but they still come off easily
Whenever you get new joy cons, always replace the plastic clip with a metal one. You would never have to go to this problem again. They’re dirt cheap. The labor is a bit of a pain. But it’s worth it at the end.
@@MarvinManio nah nah, I didn’t know this lol. Someone said when you set up the switch it shows you… that might be why I didn’t know lol I got mine second hand.
I literally just installed metal replacements for this 3 hours ago. They feel WAY better than the stock pieces. However if you ever drop your switch I’m sure your screwed if they designed it in plastic as a weak point to protect the console from damage
I'm surprised this isn't common knowledge, when I first got my switch I quickly figured out about this and thought it was the only way to get them off the switch or any other accessory like the joycon grip without prying them off.
one time I saw my friend take their joycons off without pressing the button. I told them about how they needed to and they said “ohh, so that’s why they were so hard to take off.”
no literally how is that not an instinctive thought. “this is hard to do, is it maybe because I’m not supposed to do this?” google at that point. “why is my joy-con stuck” and boom.
I used to let my roommate use my switch while I was at work. I come and he looks me dead in the eyes and says "look I fixed it! They were both stuck and now they slide off!". I never let people use my stuff while I'm work anymore.
I'll field that one, video will be forthcoming tonight. But the long and the short of it, you throw the system against a wall. Hulk smash with your right hand. Right hand, NEVER your left. Stomp with your left foot. Eat cheese fries. Vote for a political third party. Cross at the red light. Goodness... I spoiled a lot, didn't I?
@@locke103 I checked your channel but I didn’t see the tutorial. Can you please make that video, I’ve had my switch for a year now and I haven’t been able to play anything because I can’t figure out how to press the A button
I thought this was common knowledge, when I first ever got my switch I saw and knew that. I feel bad for those that have broken joycons from not noticing the obvious button, along with instructions on how to remove it properly.
Honestly like people acting like reading instructions is a chore or a waste of time are dumb and that’s why they have broken joy cons. If you try to slide the joy cons off after connecting to the switch and they don’t budge it’s not that hard to be like let me check the instructions. OR use common sense and flip the switch over and see the obvious little buttons and push it then surprise joy con is free
The very first thing I do with any new joy cons is swap the buckles (what you're calling clips) with metal ones. I also always press the button when sliding hot cons off *and on* my system. As nice as the clicky noise they make when locking onto the system is, it causes unnecessary wear. Besides, the system already plays a click sound when a joy con is connected, anyway.
A broken joy con lock sucks, because you basically have to take it apart completely to fix it. If you don’t trust your self to fix it, your best option is by a replacement joy con or set from Nintendo. As a lot of repair places charge about the amount as a new set, at least the last I checked.
@@Cust0mCraft I do know what it means. So let me rephrase, he knows what he’s doing is hypocritical, but he does it anyways to show the audience, therefor there’s no reason to point it out
Existing breaks joycons. If you breathe at them wrong. The clip breaks. If you look at it funny, it drifts. If you touch the left one, it refuses to connect.
There are clips you can buy that are made out of metal that completely eliminate this issue. Surprisingly, that little clip is one of the easier things to replace on a Joy-Con. I'm not sure why Nintendo did not include metal clips to begin with, it's probably because the Switch was developed and manufactured on a budget, they didn't have a whole lot of money after the Wii U flopped.
Thankfully I've always done that as I am scared of damaging anything I own I'm always cautious BUT the wobble still scares me into thinking it could fall off any minute
I had this problem with all my joycons since 2018 and it’s actually not bad of a problem compared to the joycon drift. This is only annoying for when you drop your switch but other than that, it’s more useful than an bad thing for me.
I hate the joycon wiggle like Nintendo really needs to fix this problem I miss the feeling when I got the brand new stiffness joycon on my brand new switch oled I got from my dad for Christmas
Huh, First time finding out about this. Before anyone comes at me, I've never owned a switch nor played on one and only seen a friend of mine who owned it long ago play on it and he took off without pressing anything so I thought you just took off the little controllers like that
They get damaged anyway. I repaired mine so often, even though I always used the button. I wanted to change to the metal versions of the little pieces that wear out, but I lost 3 pieces of them in pack of 4.
@@neinja66469 this won't happen the first time you get it and get the joycons out like like. Also, your definition of "just got the thing" must mean a few months or years judhing by the games he has huh.
The clip is supposed to break when dealt excessive force. It's so that if you drop your switch on the ground, a lot of the momentum gained is transferred into the flying joycon to minimise the damage onto the fallen switch, since momentum is conserved.
It goes beyond this. If you don't push the button down the whole way, you'll slowly wear out the clip resulting in the same issue. Happened to some joy cons in our house. I replaced the clips with metal versions. No longer an issue.
To be fair, I’ve done it only a couple times before, and now my joycons are totally screwed up and fall off the switch at the lightest touch, and I’m betting others do it too. They still work with the controller attachment though, so I think part of it is the switch itself. This tutorial is more to show what happens rather than how to use the button
I think what we should be talking about isn't him not knowing this until this video. Cause I'm sure he knew. But the fact that he felt the need to tell others about it 😂
