Hey there, may someone please tell me if there is a fix for this small scratch on the ride side of the switch? It was caused by me rubbing a pushpin against it to remove a piece of dirt and it slid across the right side and left a small minor scratch as you can see here : https://imgur.com/a/KdKbZNn
 
Unfortunately I can't think of a way to remove the scratch that would still retain the brand new look. There are replacement housings for the front and back but that would require you to remove the digitizer and disassemble the entire thing as well.

Put a band-aid™ on it and call it a battle scar.

Can you please link me some replacement housings i will take it to ubreakifix and see if they can do it for me.
 
Actually i made a service repair order with nintendo for cosmetic repair, if anyone has the same issue as me just contact nintendi and they will help you sending you a new one back! Also make sure to ask for Overnight shipping back!

Really .... That's neat. May I ask how much that cost by chance?

I would personally just buy a replacement housing and then put a couple of years of wear and tear into it and then switch them out so in a couple years you have a new looking Switch. Portable devices are going to get scratched over time unless you keep some kind of protective case on it at all times.
