Someone said a foam won't work on the right Joy-Con, but I can't confirm that.So is nintendo only fixing the left joycon?
My right one disconnects almost as much...
Meh

If you want to shield something wouldn't you use a non-conductive material? Isn't this actually a way to expand the antenna signal or even redirect it?conductive foam at the bottom right of the Joy-Con, which function apparently is to shield the antenna from interference.
Which one did you order? My left Joy-Con connectivity issues are so bad it makes any game unplayable and ruins my day.
I need to order a smaller Tri-Wing screwdriver anyway so might as well order some conductive foam as well rather than going with the wire fix.
I have a Tri-Wing screwdriver but it was used for Wii and is twice the size of what I need.
Assuming 0.6 means 6mm, you're gonna need a smaller triwing screwdriver. I have one around that size and it doesn't grip the screws at all.

I ordered this, should cover all my bases: http://www.ebay.com/itm/3mm-4mm-5mm...375962?hash=item4b12779c9a:g:x2wAAOSwx6pYro1X
I don't know. I quoted the source there.If you want to shield something wouldn't you use a non-conductive material? Isn't this actually a way to expand the antenna signal or even redirect it?
The Right Joy Con use a wire type antenna, instead of the on PCB used at the left joy-con. So the fixes may involve:Someone said a foam won't work on the right Joy-Con, but I can't confirm that.
It doesn't say mm, they probably mean cm.It says 0.6mm not 6mm, is it still too big?

Hmm, you're right. That sounds really small, not sure whether it'd work. The screws look around 3mm large.It does in the description:

According to iFixit this is the correct one to use: https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Tri-point-Y00-Screwdriver/IF145-312-1Well I'll post here once I get it, hope it won't be for nothing.
I'd honestly rather be stuck with handheld mode than be unable to play my brand new console for weeks.Even if you guys are more than capable of fixing the issue why risk voiding the warranty? You don't have to pay for any of the material for the repair and on top of that the round trip shipping is free.
The only good reason I could think of is if your a hobbyist with repairs or you simply cannot wait out the 2 weeks for it to be done. I'll take the safe approach on this one.

Can't find out what size in mm that corresponds to though.
It seems that nintendo actually didn't took any measures to verify that the joycons were opened by end user, so if you try the foam fix they wouldn't know that you tried it when sending the joycon back (after removing said foam).Even if you guys are more than capable of fixing the issue why risk voiding the warranty?
