I got my hands on a Nintendo Switch Lite that has seen some usage on it. Some buttons were quite gunky and sticky and it had an unnecessary Spiderman skin stuck to it. The rubber on the analog sticks had also been worn away. My goal was to get this NSL looking as new as it could be and change out the sticks.
The whole job difficulty: 7/10.
