Taki is not dead
Nintendo is like a Terminator, it can't be reasoned with.
Nintendo should be canceled.
Boys about to be made an example 😂
Hopefully not Taki's last words before the storm comes
The man just CASUALLY decides to start up a company in order to make OLED screens.
yo dude want to start up a bulldozer company with me? i was, like, just thinking only last night how it would be neat to make a couple bulldozers and sell them to the UAE.
I genuinely can’t wait to see the video showcasing the touch and HDMI mod!
Ditto!
Same! HDMI on a switch lite would be a killer feature!
I have preordered it too and excited to see how they go about it. I can understand the logic on how they would be doing it. Its mostly the screen mirroring of the current screen by splitting it like HDMI splitter. I am curious to see how the whole hardware is designed and how user are going to access it. Also the 1080p upscaling. Exciting stuff.
I think they'll use a Raspberry Pi as a dock for the Switch Lite and output HDMI.
@@user-fs3ye7ex2j that requires a modded switch. This hdmi mod doesn't rely on modded switch.
Holy shit. Oled replacement for the 3DS. Freaking….please. I’d pay for that in an instant. You’ll have some work cut out for you getting consistent color temperature between top and bottom screen, but if that could be done, that will be a game changer.
The bar is kind of low. Even Nintendo didn't do a good job matching color temperature between both. lol
IMAGINE THAT OMG ❤
Would also completely remove the whole IPS vs TN display thing too lol
@@TakiUdon honestly I'd love an OLED replacement for the LCD steam deck!
@@jet613You mean the Steam Deck? 😂 Just buy the Steam Deck OLED
I’d like a 2ds OLED.
I gotta finish watching this before Nintendo tries to take it down
Har har har
@@rp479 They're already at Taki's front door as we speak
Literally what I thought. I saw the video and was like "gotta watch it now before it's gone by Nintendo" 😂😂
he is using og hardware so no problem
@@bobleesniper Don't be naive, they get mad at people even sharing gameplay/screenshots of their games on here, they'd patent and sue Italian-Americans if they could
*Nobody creates an OLED mod for Switch Lite*
Taki Udon: "Fine, I'll do it myself"
You fixed my only compliant about the switch lite! I own a OLED switch but will be picking up the hyrule switch tomorrow
Same here, I have 2 totk oled switch, but don't like taking them out the house. Because of this oled mod I bought a hyrule edition lite and buying another one next week. Now I gotta pre order a second mega kit lol
So excited I pre ordered the full matte black kit.
I know the Vita had OLED but it is a really old panel that is quite outdated. I feel like a swap kit for the slim ver with a modern OLED would be AMAZING
That would be godly!
This would be incredible
wasn't even true oled, it was nicknamed quarter oled due to the rez
That would be genius, for years I had a Vita 2000 until I found a 1000 for a great price, better colors but has the mura effect unfortunately
@@Ren722 the 1000 has a way worse battery life tho like 3 hours LOL the 2000 is able to use the 1000 battery with the right back panel and you get 6 hours of battery instead.
I ordered the OLED Touch + HDMI right when it dropped! Can't wait to see you showcase it!
God, I want the same sort of job done on my own zelda switch lite, especially the hall effect sticks.
It's refreshing to see someone else like this version of the switch lite as much as I do, I think it's fantastic.
Can't wait for my Super5 OLED kit to arrive!!!! Please share where you got the 5000MAH battery upgrade from!!! I would like to purchase!!!
Yeah I've tried to search for 5000 mah switch lite batteries and it's not going great.
Yeah I’ve been looking, too
@@michaela831 where did he confirm this?
@@manny655321just read the package content of the mega kit, there is a lot more than "just" the screen
They make it themself and it comes with the mega bundle he is selling
FINALLY! I’ve been wondering the same exact thing. I’ve been modding for years but my favorite handhelds are PSP, New 3DS, and Switch Lite. None of which have OLED screen (or any screen) upgrades. Just replacements 💔 Thank you for founding this company! 💕
the psp does have a screen upgrade. not oled though.
@@RedstoneBros Only 100X models, not slim.
Fingers crossed for you, Taki!
Seeing the black bezel on the zelda switch lite sold it for me. Wanted the Touch+HDMI mod but wasn't sure how the black bezel would look until now. Looks great.
I honestly prefer the black bezel on the gold Switch 😳
Yes, me too.
I was thinking the same. Matches the buttons and d-pad.
Will you eventually do color bezels?
@@charlesvanderholm4711he already has, just not with touch screen.
Woww. I didn't even notice. Thats sick. I wish I could do the mod myself but I'm scared too
My buddy already pre-ordered a couple of units. I'm working on getting a switch lite right now so I can experience this form factor. Lets hope the nintendo ninjas stay far away. REALLY appreciate your videos and all of your efforts on these recent projects. You are awesome and I am so grateful for all of your work!
I preordered the touch OLED upgrade but was hesitant since I’d be losing the gold digitizer 13:43 has shown me the hyrule lite with a black digitizer doesn’t look bad AT ALL
That the same i thought it's gold anything black looks good with gold
Yeah, but according to him you are also allowed to change your order via mail if you want to change your color
He is trying to get color matching bezels with touch
@@michaela831 thank you for that information, hopefully by official release we get one to match the hyrule lite bezels
I actually like the black bezel around the screen more than the color matched. it goes w/ the theme w/ the buttons.
I think I like the color matched better but the black bezel is more than acceptable with black buttons and sticks.
i love how it hides the actual screen bezel since with the gold bezel you can see the little bit of black between the actual screen and the gold glass!
Honestly wish Nintendo had the screen sit behind the case so there'd be no obvious bezels, they could still have the glass on the front but just sunken into the case to fit flush.
0:50
Wait are you implying you have plans to have a solution for 3DS modders who don't want to buy 20 colorways in order to MAYBE get a decent set of screens?
Taki, my dude. SERIOUS W.
Wonder if he can make a parallax 3d oled screen....
Please show us the hdmi out!!!
Agreed!
I find it really peculiar we have NO information on how the HDMI mod will work. ZERO. ZILCH. How does it work? Because the only thing he's confirmed is it won't require any soldering or case mods.
Yeah, the only thing I can think of is it's an internal adapter that can push out 720p video and audio to the USB C connector
I'm sure he would show us if was able to, he's probably still making final touches from the sound of it. Since the screen is super easy to install, I can kinda see how it might work already with just this video if it comes with parts to better fit these mods
@@esk8jaimes he's gonna make some cash
Nintendo Ninjas: "You ya-hoo'd your last yippe, Paisano!"
Great video. I'd be very interested in learning more about that 5,000mAh battery upgrade as well.
I am so ready for the PSP upgrades. So hyped to hear you're going to make a new shell for it
I will be first in line for a DSi XL and new 3DS XL screen! Please please please let the 3DS replacement screen have 3D
He is not building screens himself, there is no parallax screen , at least that size, on the wholesale market, so 3d OLED would be impossible.
Love this and can't wait to see how the HDMI output will work. Already pre-ordered but I'm so hype!
I literally already ordered the screen to do this EXACT same swap 😂😂😂 love to see a preview of my project, I do really want to know where you got that 5,000 mah battery though, I have thumbsticks already and am waiting until next month for my touch screen oled
Yeah this battery looks amazing
Same here! I got the kit with the HDMI out. Omg can't wait.
The battery is part of the mega kit. But it would be awesome to sell the parts separately
@@michaela831 Where did you see this?
@@Rezirex michael here. Sorry i can't comment anymore. Don't know what happened. you have to look inside the messenger with the bird for the text "5000" inside his profile
The fact that we're getting reliable screen upgrades for the previous generations is amazing! considering how hard good screens are to come by for some systems, this sounds great!
Ohh man... this is awesome. Here's hoping for an OLED screen for the v1 Switch.
I believe he already confirmed it on Twitter. It’s the Super7 OLED
I like that you're selling them as Kits with full mods on it. Not having to select each item from the store avoids major confusion!
If you release an OLED screen for the switch 2 that's rumored to be launching with an LCD screen you'll become a millionaire overnight.
as cool as this would be the nintendo ninjas would catch on just as fast 😭
@@spidarmanhaloween why ? They can't go after him for something like that. It's just like Apple can't go after third party vendors for screens and batteries. What Nintendo might do is the same as Apple . Implement some annoying pop up message that your screen is not legit.
Switch 2 with LCD? Wtf? Really? With the hardware that got leaked (if it's accurate) that is kinda upsetting..
@@TwoGendersOnlyNintendo in their never ending greed will always (or at least for the last 20 years) release consoles with the cheapest hardware possible even if significantly better hardware is available and just means a few dollar less of profit per unit. It's infuriating, but it's Nintendo so they will get away with it.
@@J.A.Z-TheMortal It can't be that much more to just release them with oled screens. People will double up on consoles regardless when special editions release. They're crazy for releasing a new console in 2025 with an LCD screen 🤣
To be perfect, all that was missing was for the screen to be bigger, for the frame to be thinner and for the frame to have an antique gold color.
I’ve been thinking of buying a switch lite just to mod it😁
Happy to support a preorder the touch version OLED screen.
Really looking forward to that 3ds screen upgrade !
If your company makes OLED screens for PSPs, I am going to buy it no time instantly.
Ordered the OLED Touch version! I love love love the switch lite, it's my preferred version of the console so THANK YOU for making this happen!
Oh snap, PSP/DS OLED but with Taki's eye for correct color space?! You mentioned the GBC OLED which sadly doesn't have an option to emulate the correct colors, that could do with your power. If you decide to tackle the DS please also emulate the original GBA color space too
Can’t wait for the oled screen to arrive.
One thing i always have in mind, is there a way for the switch in handheld to trick it is in docked mode, so it has more power/resources. That could run the games with better framerates and/or less dynamic scaling for the resolution.
I’m not sure about modded lite consoles but I’m pretty sure you can do it on the bigger switch
But on a modded you can also adjust the clocks for the handheld profile so it doesn’t really matter if docking is available
I will be buying the touchscreen version.
Take my money! This is so great to finally have available. Thank you for putting this together. Just grabbed a kit to give it a go!
Careful dude, Nintendo hates people having fun.
Excited to see which console you make an OLED mod for next! Really hope for an OLED Wii U Gamepad mod in the future 🙏
Man if your able to get OLED on to the Switch 2 thats going to do numbers. Of all the Switch 2 leaks it's what I am fearing the most, and its super Nintendo give it a shitty screen then make a good OLED screen for a system refresh down the line. If that comes to pass and you can give us the option to skip that Nintendo garbage I'm damn sure that would be wildly successful.
Whats with that screen door look on the new panel? Its prominent in a few of the shots, like your first shot of echoes, and when youre playing Skyward Sword. Its hard to miss, and it doesnt look right. Maybe its got nothing to do with the screen, but its something im noticing through the video.
Cant wait to hear about 3DSXL screen upgrades though. I hope the 3D effect still works with the replacement screens. Sounds like a big endeavor, and I wish you the best of luck. If it works, I'll gladly be buying a few.
I'm curious too, it looks like it could be some kind of atifacting from recording a screen. But it wasn't mentioned in the video so I can't say, would be cool to know before placing an order though.
There is none. What you are referring to is aliasing caused by the camera filming the screen.
@@TakiUdon I can definitely see, what looks like, the oled pixels. It’s really noticeable in skyward sword such as at 15:25. Are you sure those little bubbles on the screen are from the camera filming? You don’t see those in person?
Edit: Seems it is from the camera. I just double checked skyward sword gameplay on a standard switch oled and you can see it there too.
taki’s doing what nintendo refuses to do. thank you for giving us quality screens! i can’t wait for a 3ds OLED i will be switching mine out immediately! these mods make playing on these handhelds more enjoyable, looking forward to the all the switch lite mods showcased
What we need is OLED mod for the V1/V2 Switch
YES, that is what I wanted to say. Many will say, just get an OLED version. The problem is I love my current switch and I also like to modding things
@@rajikkumastah452I like modding too, in fact my v1 is heavily modded. But I don't think I would put an OLED in it because once the Switch 2 drops, if it's backwards compatible with the leaked specification of an 8" screen, then the v1/v2 and even the OLED are obsolete imo.
The only Switch 1 model worth owning at that point will be the Switch Lite OLED, imo, because it fits a niche (highest quality hand-feel due to built-in controls and having the smallest form factor).
Outstanding. This is so rad. Thanks for sharing.
WAIT AS MANY OF THOSE AS POSSIBLE?!?!
So we may get PSP OLEDS!!!!!
Please do the PSP 2000. It's such a horrible screen. Been waiting for a proper company to give us shell replacements and screens.
Gameboys get so much love and never the psp.
Thank you for your service to the community. Can't wait for a PSP oled screen.
HDMI out. OLED screen that works in the sun, better battery? And hall effect sticks? You turned the switch lite into something id actually want, and I hated the switch lite it felt so useless when the OLED exists.
Not native screen resolution, it won't look good
@@luked4587 i dont care about that at all.
@o0kaelas ..so you're interested in paying to upgrade to a "better" screen, but you don't care if it looks better.. how bizarre
@@luked4587 How do you know its not native 720p display? Genuinely asking.
@billybobthorton2026 I remember him posting a video about this probably a year ago, he mentioned it in there and hasn't mentioned it since. It's super shady, he's obviously purposely not mentioning it now because he's selling it. Originally it was just a personal project.
This is awesome only reason I didnt want the switch lite was lack of oled. Great to see your investing in future mods as well!
BRO WE NEED DS LITE SCREENS ASAP. Both top and bottom. Laminated would be great including the touch screen. Make them affordable though.
absolute madman been waiting for someone to make something like this
Looks amazing but could you have made the screen full size? That black bezel around it that Nintendo designed is so off-putting!
I'm going to guess there's some kind of limitation on the screen itself; there's no way he wouldn't have offered his customers a bigger, bezel-less screen if he could have.
@@jayjayhooksch1 I would agree but this would be so cool if possible.
I'm guessing the bezel helps hold the screen in.
Cool project! And I'm very excited to hear that OLED screens for the 3DS and DS Lite could be on the cards in the future!
Where did you pickup that battery replacement kit?
I second this
0:56 lol man really said fine i’ll do it myself and out the gauntlet on
Nintendo bouta take this down lol
Just preordered mine! I've been looking for this for months!
You're asking for trouble.
Damn, nicely done. You’ve done really great working with those panels. I’m surprised that your “ultimate” isn’t equipped with a mod chip.
You ever get a SteamDeck LCD>Oled screen replacement.... i'm allllll the way in 😂❤
Oh no mamá mía
last week I was about to order the kit that is around 100 dollars but had an issue with my card, now I already fix it with my bank and all the screens I wanted are sold out. Wanna cry lol
Please tell us you'll be making more screens soon.
Btw so much respect for you and thank you very much for achieving this! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Your oled screen looks awesome!
"Nintendo, be gentle" HAH gl with that XD.
The HDMI mod will be freakin awesome, a slight overclock and you got truly the ultimate switch.
Wow! Well done! Looks awesome! I prefer the black bezel over the gold one TBH.
We have 2 OG Switches (1 for my wife and 1 for my kids and me) but I am temped to buy a Switch Lite just to do these mods too.
Holy shit, super excited for PSP/DS + XL OLEDs. Going to buy the Switch Lite OLED for my Zelda model now. You’re a genius man, thank you!
OMG, I need to do this mod !
Amazing work dude
Amazing work. I look forward to the future of this product.
I saw one of these at the store when I went to buy Echoes of Wisdom; had no idea it existed. If I hadn't just spent a week rediscovering that I didn't like the way the on system controls felt on my OG Switch, I genuinely might have impulse bought it. It's beautiful x.x And that black bezel. Man I wish I wanted to use the controls on this now!!
I love the initiative. Created your own business to solve your problem. Wish you the most success!
Great mod! I think there is room for another bigger OLED screen with less bezels for the Switch Lite. If there was something like this, I'd definitely would buy one
It would be even better if the screen was a bit bigger and smaller bezels. This is still great though. Can't wait to mod my switch lite with this!
Duuude. I’ve wanted an oled switch lite since the oled switch released. If Nintendo would’ve just made one I’d have bought a fourth switch. I’ve duck duck go’d “switch lite oled replacement” numerous times, so happy one is going to be available now. Ordered the mega kit. Thanks for making this.
YESSSS!! My thoughts exactly! "Why are there no OLED screens available for Regular Switches yet?"
Preordered the OLED+Touch+HDMI! This is amazing!
WOW FINALLY! IMMA BUY ONE RN buyed my lite with a broken screen and made some customization whit the snes shell, never found an oled screen but this changes things
That Matte Black is clean!
To be ultimate this is going to need the Macho Nacho Productions all metal shell. I really wish I could get my hands on on one.
Forgot about this for ages but I'm so excited to get my HDMI OLED mod now. I'm even more stoked for a potential set of 3DS XL screens, Still use mines almost daily.
I bought a Switch Lite just to do the Touch OLED and HDMI/USB C mod. Cant wait for the video.
Taki you are the GOAT! Excited to receive my order and to see what else you come up with.
I like the black bezels. it makes it look kind of cinematic.
I will be very excited for a v1 switch oled option. My switch shell cracked by the fan despite treating it carefully over the years. I haven't replaced the shell our of fear for damaging the screen in the process. Replacing the screen with an oled option would be the perfect opportunity for me!
I really really am looking forward to making screen replacements to all my devices for that sweet sweet oled. It’s so incredible
This is awesome, but I'm even more interested in DS and 3DS upgraded screens!
Very brave showing Echoes of Wisdom footage. Godspeed.
Finally. I've been waiting for this video.
Your idea is amazing! Since I added an OLED screen to my Game Boy Color, I always wonder why nobody is producing OLED screens for other consoles, such as the Nintendo Switch or Nintendo DS. These companies are missing the opportunity to make so much money, especially from me buying, haha
An OLED Dsi XL would be amazing
Better screens for the New 2DS and DSi are what I was looking for years, thank you
Looks great. I got a mega kit. Lookin forward to the tutorial video for that!
Just like ever one else cant wait to see the version with the hdmi and touch. I just pre-ordered it tbh lol.
Tots ordered up a screen from you! Can't wait to see the results in person!
You are a legend taki. I have always wanted better screens on the ds and psp. I will buy those mods so quick.
This looks really good. Can't wait to see touchscreen / HDMI version. That would solve biggest issues with the Lite.
Link's Awakening looked so nice on the OLED
Looks incredible, cannot wait for your DS screens to release!
glad to hear that the regular switch is in plan to get an oled mod developed!!!
Got mine pre-ordered. Can't wait
