How does this compare to a shell swap on the Switch? I’ve done my switch twice, but that’s all of my experience with taking electronics apart. The deck intimidates me, but damn do I want that see-through case. I have both a game boy and my switch in clear pink, and I want the set.
I’ve never actually done a Switch shell swap, but based on watching a couple shell swap videos, it actually looks much simpler to do the Deck shell swap. A lot fewer tiny, fiddly components to manage.
The main thing I’d suggest is to watch Taki Udon’s video on it, it might help you get a better sense of how easy it is - I found it quite helpful, even just knowing that I didn’t have to take the cooler off the APU like ExtremeRate was suggesting was quite helpful.
