  1. I've had my Switch for like 4 months and the left joycon drifts when playing Zelda BOTW 🙁
    Nintendo needs to fix this

  2. I was going to get a Switch Lite but then I heard about this issue. I didn't even hear it from IGN originally. I heard it from all my friends saying their controllers keep breaking. Guess the Playstation 5 will have to do whenever that thing gets announced. Anyone know whether or not the PS5 controller is gonna have a touchscreen? ?

  3. Lite might not have that problem because they are not remove able because every scene we had the with remove joy con and drifting Nintendo maybe have to take a look at older game controllers that they in the past to see what went wrong

  4. Not only does the joycon drift but also their usb pro controllers (I’ve been through 2) & the 1st wireless pro controller I bought had input button problems honestly it just seems like they don’t know how to build proper controllers for the switch. I have a new pro controller now but every time I have a session I get scared it’s gonna start to drift because of all the problems they gave me in the past.

  5. I actually have now three pairs of joycons as I only play in portable mode. The first two had gotten the super annoying drift issue.

    Few weeks ago the I bit the bullet and bought the replacement sticks of amazon (15 euros) and fixed them myself with the help of Spawn Wave videos.

    Best thing I did for my switch now I have 2 spare sets.

  6. This is why I prefer digital controllers over analog ones, IME analog sticks are so easy to break–I just prefer the durability of digital D-pads

  7. Never had a problem with drift.. so i dont know what the fuss is about… lol..
    but ign.. c’mon… the joke once may have been cute.. 15 times later in 3 minutes.. not so much.. you all can do better… strive for greatness guys..

  8. Thank you there finally taking about this I bought another pair of joy cons and they didn't even survive 3 months and I'm very careful with them because they $70 :/

  9. The same thing happens to PowerA's Xbox controllers purchased off Amazon, possibly similarly manufactured joy-cons. I smell a Joy 'Con' type Gate coming.

  10. I delicately take care of my switch like if it's very fragile and I still ended up getting joycon drift on my controller, even my left speaker on my switch cuts to mute sometimes.
