Nice set but the quality could be better.

Good product and looks good. The kit didn't come with a screwdriver for the internal screws, but I have my own electronics kit so this wasn't a problem for me. The case is much darker gray than in the photo, which is a bit off-putting. The loud talking gyroscopes don't seem to be held in place as securely, causing the trigger buttons to vibrate and make more noise. The soft touch is amazing. Installation was easy even if it's your first mod, but it requires some patience.

Overall not a bad skin, good looking

This is quite a nice skin as it really gives you the aesthetic of a SNES controller. It was a little tricky to install, but that's not the shell's fault. Sounds like Microsoft really doesn't want you to take your controller apart. Inside the controller is a cable between two circuit boards that's held in place with duct tape, a piece of tape that doesn't stick very well once it's peeled off. the gray color of the SNES controller, as well as a touch on the shell itself (e.g. a circle around the…

Nice soft shell, but be careful when installing

This product is very good, but some things you should know are that not all styles can fit perfectly. Also, there shouldn't be any metal part on the back panel to hold the batteries that is not included in the back panel. I suggest removing it from the old back plate, which is very easy to remove and install. Even when inserting the buttons, be tired of the wires, do not tear out the rumble, be careful to stick them. Last but not least, not all the necessary screwdrivers are included in the…

Pros
  • Personality: The NES retro style takes you back to the 80's. Excellent smooth touch, soft to the touch and comfortable to the touch; Non-slip, no sweat for a long time playing
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

UPDATED: no Torx T6 screwdriver included but seller offered to mail me one

I received a message from the seller suggesting they send me a T6 screwdriver. I didn't see the news right away due to the way Revain structures their website. So when I saw the seller's offer, I had bought a screwdriver set that contained a T6 bit. As for the quality of the shell, it's excellent. I was concerned that the "soft touch" would be odd, but it actually seems quite premium. My only complaint with this product is that the buttons I received were buggy because they didn't register…

Pros
  • . Fits perfectly: fits best; Flush on all sides; They sit normally on all clips
Cons
  • High price
