Handheld gaming PCs and the Switch live hard lives in backpacks and on couches — dropped, sat on, and charged nightly. The failures are predictable: cracked screens, swollen batteries, worn USB-C charge ports, clogged fans, and drifting thumbsticks. Aura Tech repairs Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Legion Go, Nintendo Switch, and retro handhelds like the DS line right here in Christiansburg — nothing gets mailed to a depot.
For Switch-specific details, see our Nintendo Switch repair page and our Nintendo repair page. Every repair starts with a diagnosis and a written quote — no diagnostic fee when repaired by us, and we'll tell you plainly if a repair isn't worth it.

Frequently asked
Which handhelds do you repair?▾
Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion Go, Nintendo Switch / Lite / OLED, and retro handhelds like the Game Boy, DS/3DS line, and PS Vita.
My Steam Deck won't charge. What's wrong?▾
Most often a worn USB-C charge port, though the battery and charger are ruled out first during diagnosis. No diagnostic fee when repaired by us — you approve the written quote before any work begins.
Is a swollen battery dangerous?▾
Yes — a swollen lithium battery can be a fire risk. Bring it in promptly, store it somewhere non-flammable, and don't press on the back panel.

Yes, we install larger M.2 SSDs in handheld gaming PCs so you have room for your library.
Do you offer a warranty?▾
Yes — 90 days on parts and labor for the specific repair we performed.
