I'm confused by this question.. It's free to send it in for repairs, for Nintendo is footing the bill, isn't it?
Either way, I kind of wonder if I could just make the improvement myself. I wish console manufacturers didn't intentionally make their hardware so difficult to open without specialized tools heh |
Repairing a bunch of controllers and paying for shipping is potentially going to cost someone a lot of money. If it's an early design flaw then it's obviously Nintendo's responsibility but I wonder if the manufacturer is responsible if it's a defect that occured during the building process.
And, yes, making products hard for consumers to open is a terrible practice. I recently had to throw away a portable heater that I might have been able to repair if only I could get inside the damn thing.
