Possible FIXES for Loose Joy-Con on the Nintendo Switch

Hi, this video shows you 5 possible Fixes for Loose Joy Cons on the Nintendo Switch. I didn't realise this problem was so widespread but after making the previous video on 3 annoying faults on the Nintendo Switch I had lots of comments from viewers with loose Joy-Cons.
I had lots of suggestions on possible fixes so I have made a video on some of the ones that work. Thanks to all the people that gave in the suggestions.
If you have any better fixes please add them to the comments to help other people out.
In my opinion the best fixes are the easiest ones so I like 'Solution No.2' and 'Solution No.4'.
Many thanks Vince

    They completely refuse to allow you to have the joy-cons connected in TV mode. On the home menu, it just makes this "you can't do that" click and when you connect them it doesn't make the snap sound, and it puts the controller sync screen up if you're in a game

    I bought the Switch ASAP (meaning in a few months), and I treated it with care, but I play ARMS and Super Mario Odyssey a lot, so I use the straps a lot, which wear down the locking mechanism. The design of the Joy-Con has not changed since the Switch was released.

    I realize it "saves money for Nintendo" but did they really not think this through as a bigger problem? Of course Nintendo is going to sell lots of units to adults but I'm sure there's an extremely giant mass of these going to kids.. why not use metal so the constant use wouldn't do this? I'm hoping they end up changing the JoyCons in the future to use metal instead. I take good care of mine but generally kids are going to be kids.

    The part on the joy-con is plastic so that it won't wear away at the console. Things like this are designed to fail in this way because its better to repair or replace the cheaper part. USB cables are also designed in this way because it's easier to replace the cable than the port on the device

    Battleofawesome don't use metal. That will also damage the console. Things like this are designed so the easy to replace part will break before the hard to replace part, and using metal can wear away at the metal rail on the console. Also, I don't think metal can be 3D printed, it has to be molded or machined

    luckily nowadays there are metal replacements I'll get some soon for my loose ones (just had my bro the drift fixed on my left joycon I wanted to do both the locks on both joycons and the left stick at the same time but luckily mine aren't that loose and my bro want's to try building joycons from scratch with metal locks anyway)

    This comes from the joy con straps. I think since they fit on so tight and feel like they're gonna break the joy con when you take them off, which is kind of a sign why the joy cons stop fitting on tight. They get a chip in the locking mechanic ( it breaks part of it off), that's why. So just stop putting on the joy con straps

    The tape seems to have fixed my problem, at least for now. I was getting constant disconnect issues when playing games that didn't require a lot of fast inputs, like JRPGs and strategy games, so I wasn't moving the controllers a whole lot. But after putting tome electrical tape, voila! I managed to play 5 Smash matches in a row and no connection issues whatsoever. The right Joy-con (the one with the issues) can still be removed without pressing the buttons and it still disconects if I move it up a bit, but it's tight enough that even more intense play sessions don't provide enough force to do so. What I'm worried is that the tape is getting a bit wrinkled due to how tight it is, so I might need to replace it from time to time. Not a huge issue to replace it, but I don't want to damage my console or controllers because of this. Thanks for the tip anyways!

    If your warranty has expired, I think the best thing to do is to buy a metal replacement for the lock buckle pieces (which are quite cheap) or perhaps 3D print one out of a stronger material. With that said, an quick, easy and cheap solution that I thought of while watching the video that could potentially work is adding a velcro strand to either the actual Switch unit or the Joy Cons (I'd say, probably in the middle of each piece). While adding the velcro strand on both parts of the unit would definitely make a solid connection, I doubt the Joy Cons would slide very smoothly and it could be more on a hassle than anything else, in the end (could still work, though). However, by putting one half of a velcro stand (either the "hairy side" or the "hook side") on the Joy Cons or the Screen unit, it could reduce the friction considerably, being somewhat thick and offering a rugged surface. It would probably be a snugger fit, too. The concept is very similar to the "tape solution" but a bit more durable and efficient... in theory. Note that as I'm writing this, I haven't tried it myself but I'd say it's worth a shot. **Edit:* Maybe putting the same side of a Velcro stand (again, it could be either side) on each part of the Switch would work even better.

    I highly recommend that everyone that is weary about this issue to press the button down hard when you are pulling them off AND putting them on. The reason the joycons click(the non-artificle click) is because the locking mechanism scrapes the side of the switch. If you press the button down when placing the joy cons ON the switch then it doesn't scrape the lock. If you get into the habit of doing this then you can fix the joy con issue. I have the two matte red joy cons and i would hate to get this problem. Remember to hold down on the button when taking them off and on.

    I personally would recommend putting tape on the Joy-Con, rather than the Switch, so that if you get new Joy-Con at some point in the future, it slides off easily when the button is pressed. You can probably find some [insert Joy-Con color here] tape so that it doesn't stand out, or cut black tape to the same width as the Joy-Con rail so that it looks natural.

    So I bought the console with grey Joy Cons while I was on vacation, and two weeks after I came back from the vacation, I had this issue with the left Joy Con. After around two months I bought a yellow set of Joy Cons, and I was really happy that the problem was fixed. Guess what? It happened again two months after I did but with the left yellow Joy Con! I'm not mad though, because I still need to put a little bit of effort to remove it and it never slid off while I was using the console.

    A combination of the tape + glue methods with the addition of you being very careful about applying / removing the Joycons seems like it would be pretty stable and would last a while. I'd go that route if I couldn't afford new Joycons as I also lack access to a 3D printer. I'm very careful about these sorts of things though, unless a product is naturally prone to wear that you can't avoid I really don't have these issues.

    I actually discovered a new method myself, ironically while watching this video. Take a safety pin, and the needle part should be long and thin enough to get into the small space, and just stab the needle into the joycon pin, UNDERNEATH the worn part. This sort of flattens it out, and accidentally solves the problem. I did the same drop test, but I have not tried exerting force into the joycon as I dont want to undo my fix, but it does seem to solve the loose joycon problem.

    I just dont get it how everyone is doing that. Are you guys like, throwing it against a wall 20 times a day? I have no problems AT ALL. I took my switch to so many vacations and play much on it. I even took it to the beach in italy. Nothing is broken, no lags at all. I dont get it. I think Nintendo did a perfect job there.

    My joycons were getting a tad loose and one of them slides out very easily. Did two layers of the black electrical tape and they feel so solid!! Thank you for this tip, will save me buying a new pair straight away!! :)

    Dude, that's not the "loose" joy con problem that most people I know are having. Most people I know, including myself, are having problems with the joy cons being loose horizontally, aka back-and-forth wiggling and not sitting right on the system while locked in. Not loose vertically as you are showing on your videos, where the rail-lock isn't holding the joy con onto the rail. Mine is staying locked onto the rail just fine as far as vertically goes, my problem is that the joy con moves back and forth while locked in, and this feels like a huge problem and seriously bothers me when I'm playing my console. If you can come up with a DIY fix for THAT one, then I'd be eternally grateful, as would all the other fiends of mine with Switches as well.

    Hi, the tape one works really well on that fault as it packs it out so it doesn't have as much room to wobble back and forth. Give it a go and experiment with how many layers you need, 2 layers, 3 layers etc. Just a tiny square bit down the bottom should do it like in the video :-)

    Obviously you didn’t pay attention to the video because he was clearly referencing the tape helping prevent the horizontal wobble as well as vertical

    TLDR: SUPERGLUE METHOD WORKS Just to let you guys know, I had a problem with my left Joy Con loosening up, as it would come off with very minimal upward pressure (Possibly caused by how I turn my switch off regularly because I travel with it a lot, and since the power button requires a good confident push for 5 seconds, I would often have my palm on the left Joy Con as I pushed with my finger, so I was effectively pushing up on the latch) and was able to repair it with regular old super glue, just like Vince showed in this video, applying it 3 or 4 times and it has worked a TREAT. One month since repair and the Joy Cons are as sturdy as they have ever been. Mind you don't glue the Joy Con latch to the Joy Con, keep pressing the button after applying the glue, and let the glue set REALLY well before you put it back on your switch. Keep these 2 things in mind and you will have an easy and cheap fix to an annoying problem.

    I did it on my 6 days old Nintendo Switch OLED that has this issue. Well I did the tape one because I needed to not cost much money, and I'm afraid breaking the joycons by taking it apart. The tape method is the best option
