Common Nintendo Switch Repairs
Joy-Con Drift and Controller Repair
Joy-Con drift is the most common Nintendo Switch problem we see. Your character moves on its own, the camera spins, or inputs register when you are not touching the stick. It is usually caused by worn analog stick components, dust and debris inside the controller, or the stick's internal sensor wearing out over time.
We repair or replace Joy-Con controllers to restore accurate, responsive control. Learn more in our article on fixing Nintendo Switch Joy-Con drift.
Battery Replacement
If your Switch dies quickly, will not hold a charge, or shuts off unexpectedly, the battery is often the cause. Batteries wear out with age and use, especially on consoles that are played every day. We replace Switch batteries to bring back full play time.
Screen Replacement
A dropped Switch can end up with cracked glass, a touchscreen that no longer responds, lines on the display, or a black screen. We replace Switch screens to restore a clear picture and full touch control.
Game Card Reader Repair
If your Switch no longer recognizes game cartridges, or only reads them some of the time, the game card reader may be damaged or worn. We repair and replace game card readers so your physical games work again.
Charging Problems and Consoles That Will Not Turn On
A Switch that will not charge or will not power on can have several causes, from a worn-out battery to a fault in the charging circuitry. Our technicians test the console to find the actual cause and give you your options before any work is done.
If the problem turns out to be a damaged USB-C charging port, we will talk you through the best route for your console, including Nintendo's own repair service, which many owners use for this particular repair.

Thinking About a DIY Repair Kit?
DIY Switch repair kits are easy to find online, and a good-quality kit can work if you know what you are doing. But buying the kit does not mean knowing how to install it, the same way buying a steering rack for your truck does not make you a mechanic.
We regularly see Switch consoles come in after a home repair has gone wrong, and sometimes by then the damage is too far gone to fix. If you have already opened your console, see what to do if you ripped a connector opening your game console.

Nintendo Switch Repair FAQs
Is it worth repairing a Nintendo Switch instead of buying a new one?
In most cases, yes. Common repairs like Joy-Con drift, a new battery or a screen replacement cost far less than a new console, and you keep your existing setup and saved data.
How long does Nintendo Switch repair take?
Most repairs are completed in 2 to 3 business days when parts are in stock. If a part needs to be ordered, we will let you know the expected timeline.
Can you fix Joy-Con drift?
Yes. Joy-Con drift is the most common Switch repair we do, and in most cases the controller can be repaired rather than replaced.
Do I need an appointment?
No. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours.
Do you repair other gaming consoles?
Yes. We also repair Xbox and PS5 consoles. See our Gaming Console Repair page for details.
