There’s a special place in controller hell for Joy-Con drift.
You’re trying to play Zelda and Link decides to moonwalk off a cliff.
You’re sneaking in Mario Kart on your lunch break, and the car veers left like it owes money.
You didn’t choose chaos — your Joy-Cons did.
Welcome to the most annoying (and common) Nintendo Switch problem: drift. And if you’re Googling cheap Nintendo Switch repair in Barrie, congrats — you’ve just landed in the right corner of the internet.
We’re OneUpFix, and we fix Joy-Con drift without emptying your wallet or sending your controller on a 3-week trip to a Nintendo dungeon.

We’ll run a quick diagnostic and quote you cheap and honest — no “surprise bills” or “mystery parts.” That’s not how we roll.

You can find cheaper — but it’s usually some dude in a basement using tools from Dollarama and praying to the YouTube algorithm.
OneUpFix is different:
We’re not a sketchy side hustle. We’re Barrie’s console repair pros — and we happen to love saving you money.
