Nintendo Switch Joy-Con repairs

    Exclamation Nintendo Switch Joy-Con repairs

    Hi, so recently my left joy con have been drifting really badly recently to the point that it's completely unusable and have also recently gotten in touch with Hong Kong's Nintendo's repair services. However, because my switch was purchased in Japan, it is not eligible for repair here meaning I now would most likely have to go search for locally opened repair services. So I was wondering if anyone here knows some locations that can do joy con repairs at a cheap price but just enough to last a few more uses.

    i recommendm Tech Joint, they are professional repairer.

    2386 4228, shop 7 (at the back of the building next to very crowded discount/cheap as nuts household goods store), ground floor, wonder building, 161-175 fuk wa street, sham shui po, not from from exit d2, they have repaired my ps vita before, they do modern consoles, but don't really touch retro 20 year old consoles.

    Thank you so much, I just called them and they were very responsive with a affordable price! Hopefully I can get it repaired today so I can finally play Animal Crossing with ease now. Many thanks!

    surprisingly only a $100. I was kind of expecting 200+

    I have some spares, I can fix it you/anyone. Will charge $100 but I can meet you and do it on site, takes like ten minutes.
