Found this video earlier today, first one to show the process to disassemble a NS2 (which looks like a major PITA, far worse than the NS1) and a look at its internals.

    There’s many reasons, here’s a few examples:

    • See how easy/hard it is to repair it
    • See how easy/hard is is to mod it (say, add a bigger battery)
    • Understand the internals, see which components are being used and their quality

    As an example of the last one, I’m really curious to see a Joycon teardown so we can find out what kind of sticks they used and how likely it is for them to show drift problems in the future.

        Your comment comes across as somewhat sympathetic for Nintendo… and they’re not exactly in the public eye for positive reasons rn.
