I damaged my original case. At some point I must have dropped my Switch and didn't think anything was wrong until weeks later when I went to change the cartridge and noticed the back panel was loose where it should not be. Then a few more months went by and I dropped it on concrete - good and hard. This broke even more of the back panel and one of the joycons.
I didn't notice how extensive the damage was until I went to put this back plate on. I broke half of the mounting tabs, but most of them are part of the back plate, so this replacement plate fixed all but one broken tab/standoff.
Good feel, easy replacement, seems durable and of good quality. I'll try not to drop my Switch again to test it.

Even More Beautiful In Real Life!
I had a hard time deciding on the color I wanted, so I went with the most "extra" one they had.The paint job on this thing is lovely. It's a glittery blue/purple color that shifts hue based on the angle of the light hitting it.The pretty-ness does come at a bit of a cost, though. It has a very glossy finish, so it collects fingerprints and feels "smooth" compared to the original plate. It's also a dollar more expensive than the other, more velvety models.On the bright side, it's nice to have my switch be one solid unit again. The old plate was so warn out that it was pulling apart at the seams. This replacement did the trick!

Great value and quality + super cute color!
Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2021
I got the sakura pink backplate and the color is super cute! Great value for your money. It includes replacement screws which 100% recommend replacing, especially the Y screws since they strip easily (I learned the hard way and stripped 2). It's super easy to install and fits great. No problems with the screw holes or anything. I will say that the sides go oh so slighty over the front piece but I don't have problems sliding on the joy-cons and don't need to shave anything off (see attached photo). Best part is that it comes with the kickstand, sponge and vent stickers needed to install, just reuse the hardware from the old one. :) Happy customizing!

Four stars for poor quality screwdrivers.
Color: Mint GreenVerified Purchase
Use your own screwdrivers! Looks awesome and feels great!
Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2020
I bought this along with joycon shells and buttons. I love the look and feel and the color is true to picture. The included screwdrivers were not usable in this kit. The ends were damaged and frayed which caused a stripped screw on the backplate and made it a nightmare to get out. Part manufacturing error part user. Had I noticed the issue I would have not used it. The replacement screws are great! I replaced all the y's with them and they work so much better for me. Super easy to install once you get the original plate off and the kick stand feels a lot more durable that the original also. I don't use it often but it doesn't worry me to open it like the one Nintendo includes.Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2020

The installation was made harder by my own negligence. Always be careful and never keep forcing the screwdriver if it will not catch on the screw. If you reach a point where your screw is starting to strip, try using a different screwdriver. If that isn't working, try using a rubber band for traction, or carefully and firmly pressing the screwdriver head into the screw and GENTLY wiggling back and forth.
Beautiful shell for both the back plate and joycons, my only issue being the fact that the back plate came with a tiny and dark stain that won't come off. But overall, I highly recommend these to anyone who has the time and patience to tackle the task!

Overall amazing, however it arrived with a small stain on the back that won't come off.
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2019
The overall experience of installing it was fun, somewhat frustrating and a learning opportunity for sure. My only advice is to take it slow, watch as many videos as possible and be EXTRA careful when you unscrew the outside Switch and Joycon screws, as they are VERY soft and they WILL strip easily! I ended up stripping three screws and had to rip off my old back plate (I do NOT recommend this) to unscrew the stripped screws with pliers.Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2019
