Full description

eXtremeRate Joy-Con 2 shell: a change of colour, buttons included

Changing the look of the Joy-Con 2 of the Switch 2 is done through the shell. This complete eXtremeRate housing replaces the original one and comes with its buttons, in eleven colours, including several translucent ones and a glow-in-the-dark one.

What it does

  • Housing and buttons: the shell comes with its buttons, in the chosen colour.
  • Eleven colours: translucent, solid or glow-in-the-dark.
  • Translucent finishes: they show the controllers' electronics.

What it doesn't do

  • No electronic parts: no battery, no board, no ribbon cable, no stick. The Joy-Con 2 are not included.
  • It is not suitable for the Joy-Con of the first Switch or the Switch OLED.
  • The kickstand is not included.
  • The transfer requires a full disassembly of the Joy-Con 2, which is delicate because of the thin ribbon cables.

Compatibility

Joy-Con 2 of the Switch 2. Not covered: Joy-Con of the Switch and Switch OLED, Switch Lite, Pro controllers.

Skill level required

No soldering for a shell change, but a full disassembly of the Joy-Con 2 and the transfer of all the electronics (boards, battery, ribbon cables, sticks) into the new housing. Have screwdrivers suited to the Joy-Con 2 screws, a plastic spudger and fine-nose pliers ready. Advanced level.

The job: dressing your Joy-Con 2

You open the Joy-Con 2, move the boards, the battery, the ribbon cables and the sticks into the new housing and close it up. The controllers work as before and change colour, buttons included: translucent to see the electronics, glow-in-the-dark to play in the dark, or a solid shade.

The part: a complete eXtremeRate housing

eXtremeRate is a well-known name in controller modding. This housing is complete and supplied with its buttons, in eleven colours. It contains no electronics: everything that makes your Joy-Con 2 work has to be transferred from the original shell.

Our support: taking your time

The Joy-Con 2 ribbon cables are thin: disconnect them with a spudger, never by pulling. Have suitable screwdrivers, fine-nose pliers and good lighting ready. Any doubt before ordering or during assembly? Our customer service replies within 1 business day.

Why buy here rather than on a marketplace

It is a fair question. Here is the answer, straight.

We verify, they list

Every listing is checked before publication: real compatibility, material, dimensions, box contents. Many models never make it into the catalogue.

Customer service that speaks French

A question about compatibility, a fit problem, a return: you write, a human replies within 1 business day. In French.

2-year legal warranty, 14-day returns

The 2-year legal warranty of conformity is handled by us — not by a form on the other side of the world. And 14 days to change your mind, with no need to justify yourself.

The price is comparable, the rest is not

We do not claim to be the cheapest. We claim that you will know exactly what you are buying before you pay.
