[QUOTE="FAST6191, post: 8829611, member: 32303"] Three main choices. 1) Add wireless to the third party effort. 2) Swap some amount of the guts from a wireless one into the fancy shell, and fix any associated issues. 3) If the dpad is not great then might be worth coming the other way and colouring the shell instead. For 1) then wireless programmable electronics are available these days but I don't know what it takes to replicate a joycon, or I suppose you could take enough guts from a joycon and bolt that onto the third party effort (though given the wireless issues of joycons that might be easier said than done -- it is not really like the xbox 360 or something where you could harvest a chip or use it as a base platform for something. 2) sounds like where you are heading. Looking at the second video (as incoherent as it was) that is a considerable effort. I would almost instead think about coming the other way and gutting the hori thing for its buttons and flying those to the original joycon board (think how people do remaps, turbo button or automated button mods to controllers). Might have to make a fatter mid section shell/standoff type thing but having used a joycon that is not a bad idea anyway. That said for that kind of effort I would probably build my own board with glorious microswitches (all that effect for rubber mat switch... why?) and fly that instead. Probably end up smaller as well. 3) Vinyls and simple painting/colouring efforts might be far cheaper than 90 Euros and yield much the same results. Indeed for vinyls you could probably replace them once a month for the next few years and still end up less than that. [/QUOTE]

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
