This Nintendo Switch Was in a House Fire! Let's Fix It! I paid $100 on eBay for a Nintendo Switch that was damaged in a house fire. The outside is gross and I'm guessing the inside is worse so, of course, we'll be opening it up to assess the damage and do the needed repairs and hopefully get everything working again. Bonus Fix: I also have a Nintendo Switch that I bought because the seller said it was having issues docking and one of the Joy-Cons is worn out and drifting. So I'll be fixing that too.

  • Just wanted to let you know you're an inspiration. My toddler daughter is enthralled with your videos. I can have a few options on screen that she likes and she'll pick "tawninks fiks" evertime. It's also helping me build the courage to pick up a soldering iron for the first time. We're hope you'll beat this cancer soon so we can keep learning from ya.
