- bombcar 2y agoI kind of like the joy con issue, as it means I can send the controllers back to Nintendo and get them fixed for free, even when the problem isn't the joycon - it's the kids destroying the controller. https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/region/d/joyconrepair https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/region/d/joycon... (Nintendo has always had excellent support - I remember getting a Gamecube refurbished long after the Wii was everywhere).
- ToucanLoucan 2y agoHonestly I swapped them myself both in the Joycons and in the Pro controller a couple times each over the years. The modules cost like $15 through Amazon or Ebay, and unlike the XBox controller, they're separate modules with a ribbon connector instead of soldered in, which makes replacing them a breeze.
- dasKrokodil 2y agoThe new one is rumored to feature hall-effect sticks on the Joycons which would hopefully solve that issue.
- Brendinooo 2y agoNew Switch user, believe it or not. I just purchased my second 8BitDo controller with Hall effect joysticks this week. Hoping I can avoid the drift problem by avoiding Joy-Cons! (We usually play on the TV.)
- WickyNilliams 2y agoYou can get free replacements btw. My original switch from release finally got drift in the latter part of last year. Nintendo had replacements to me within a few days at no cost. Rare to have such a pleasant experience with customer support, it was a flawless process
