Only dumbass children have joycon drift, nobody else

i must have gotten joy cons with speical materials made, bought two switches since 2017 and nether drifts. must be the luckiest man in the world

I've had mine since Splatoon 2's launch and both joycons still work perfectly.

i barely used it handheld. It was docked most of the time because I have a pro controller and the one time I try to use it, it starts drifting to the right.

They are delicate things which people are jamming with unnecessary force for hours at a time on a daily basis. Nintendo is smart to design them to be something which requires delicacy to use in order to maintain long term, because most gamers are too retarded to have an ounce of delicacy in their tense gayming sessions. They'll break the joycons by abusing them constantly which means they need to buy more, and nintendo will keep selling more.

It's an easy solution just don't force your thumb with all your strength into the joycon. Blaming nintendo for making something fragile by design isn't going to solve the issue. Learn how to use a controller like someone who isn't a caveman because that's how they're made these days.

You literally did get lucky. I bought a second joycon set and it started drifting within 90 days, which luckily kept me inside the window for a warranty swap. I am autistic about only playing with clean hands, not abusing my stuff, etc. There simply is a hardware problem.

You both are lucky niggers, the ones I ordered last month, the left joycon is starting to get drift.

Lies, I have only played SMT V, a game that also uses the D pad to move and one of the joycons got drift

Mine don't drift either. Realistically all controllers drift eventually but my joycons are right as rain

Fucking empirical proof that all tendies are retarded children.

I've used two switches both had faulty controllers

> In addition, Nintendo's defense cited that the End User License Agreement (EULA) that Switch users must acknowledge before using the system states that they must be over the age of 18 to accept.
lol wat
>make product for children
>product is faulty
>cant be sued because children arent allowed to use the product made for children
nintendo lawyers are some galaxy brain people

>i barely used it handheld. It was docked most of the time because I have a pro controller and the one time I try to use it, it starts drifting to the right.

This is your fault not nintendos. A multibillion dollar company wouldnt put out a faulty product

>There simply is a hardware problem.
Yes but can you prove it? Exactly. Nintendo wins

I know you're trolling and all but it's really luck in the end.
Both my sets of joycons drift, yet I use a controller most of the time.
It's build up of dust and wear.
Some dude on youtube found a fix with carboard and taking it apart so there's that too.

Sure you can laugh all you want that your stuff "just werks" but a large number of people get this issue despite also being careful and not being kids.
It's not just being careful with it or using it less, luck is involved.

It's not just a nintendo thing either, loads of controllers mess up now.
I wish all these manufacturers would use better parts.
I wouldn't mind paying more for a better quality product.

Agreed.
Gamers these days have become too genetically aggressive, so they go after innocent corporate entities like fucking animals. They deserve to be called out for their mental retardation on a daily basis. It's not like moving parts degrade with time or anything. I don't suppose the faux outrage over this so-called "drifting" myth is a psyop attempt by deep state SJWs who continue to infiltrate our hobbies and make the based Japanese look bad. If that's indeed the case, then it's further proof why we need to gatekeep our hobbies more than ever.

The ones I got on launch day work fine. Ones I got years later started drifting after a year. Only took $5 for the replacement part on Amazon though. Fuck buying the entire controller again.

I have a mario odyssey edition switch i bought back in like the beginning of 2018. i have taken really good care of that thing since i bought it, and even I just encountered drifting issues in the left stick. While being a retarded child abusing the thing plays a role in how long it takes to show up, it is only a matter of time before it shows up. same shit with the n64 sticks back in the day.

That being said i found a fucking repair kit that came with two chink joycon replacements on amazon for literally 3 dollars somehow. replaced the faulty one on the left, and even reinforced the steel plate on the back with a cut out of a business card to make sure that steel plate doesn't get pushed down (as is the actual reason for the drift to begin with, loose metal housing = poor contact with pads inside stick)

works like new. couldn't send them into nintendo for a replacement since my color is limited edition and their site specifically states that you may not get the same color back. i said fuck that.

nah fuck that. Nintendo used to make quality products but they just cheaped out this gen. You can blame me all you want but I have a device that is a defective piece of junk that I didn't break and Nintendo and their lawyers are too scummy to admit it.

Not sure if you're trolling but billion dollar companies do have faulty products all the time.
Samsung had phones going on fire some time ago, apple had their phones bending.
They're both bigger than nintendo and specialised in hardware too

laws>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>(((EULA)))

EULA is literally toilet paper in Europe, this argument wouldn't apply there.

I remember spinning the shit out of the n64 sticks with my palm for hours until I got blisters from that shit
literally the weight of my whole hand in every direction at max force for hours
and that was done by 2 more family members, so that stick got hundreds of hours worth of that
sticks still work fine to this day

it's ridiculous that just a thumb and regular playing is enough to break the new shit

apparently not since nintendo won

>an arbiter ruled in Nintendo's favor
>No judge rulings
How is this still in arbitration?

user, there's nothing you can do. Asian people don't like to admit when anything is there fault due to the whole "dishonor" complex due to centuries of Confucianism brainwashing. Fixing a legit issue would be the equivalent of losing, and the Japanese (knowing their recent history) absolutely despise the thought of losing. Ergo, you will never see any hardware improvements.

oh my bad, I forgot lobbies and corporations ruled over the US

You're still a virgin though

So I'm just supposed to use the A button for Smash attacks and not the c-stick. Fuck me for wanting to move the camera around in other games I guess

My joycons are fine, but I just noticed that my pro controller has pretty bad drift. It was my favorite controller until I realized how bad its build quality must be for that to have happened.

>How is this still in arbitration?
Mutt courts are EXTREMELY corrupt in favour of corporations and basically mean that corporations always win even when they lose because they can just keep paying it off.

don't care. hundreds upon hundreds of gigabytes of games. Terabytes even. bsnes, mesen, m64p, yuzu/ryu#, cemu, dolphin mgba, melonds, citra. DS4, 360, gamecube, snes, duke controllers, shaders, multiplayer, mods, juicy ass titties fuck hips hole slut bitch

>pro controller
What
was that a Hori controller
I have one of those

hey friend, any recommendation to play on yuzu?

My pro controller also drifts just as bad as most people's joycons but for some reason people don't talk about it as much

what brand
Hori or nintendo?

Not him, but my pro controller's right stick has drift issues, if I use it too much for Smash attacks it can get stuck in whatever position I tilt the stick

Nintendo, I've never bought a hori product in my life

Ninntoddlers...not like this...

I've got a launch model and bought an oled when it released, never had this issue

So 2 women are suing on behalf of their children and the judge told them to fuck off? Sounds pretty based to me probably realized he lawsuit was a money laundering scam

hmmm maybe smash is the problem
I remember smash breaking 3ds sticks too

I've never had the Pro drift. It only & always happened with the joycons, specifically the left joycon, due to poor parts.

>bunch of physiclets ITT that don't possess a basic understanding as to why drift happens 98% of the time and how it's all simply due to all of them being made in that one chink factory which openly sells sticks with very low lifetime
there's a very simple reason why my old ass ps1-ps2 pads still work like a charm, while I had to send back my ps5 dualsense three times in less than a year, and it's not 'muh strength' used you absolute buffoons
sticks are unironically made to only be used about 400 000 times, it's literally that simple (and jewish)

The article at the top of the thread you're posting in you fucking Atlanta resident.

Ok, and how are sony and microsoft doing with their own stick drift lawsuits.

That’s so weird my pro controller has zero drift. And I nolife it playing smash and shooters

My joycons drifted and 3 other generic powerA controllers drifted.

My release DualSense doesn't drift at all and they released a V2 recently which claims to be even more durable.
I have also not seen people complaining about PS5 and SEX controllers drifting nearly as much as about Joycon drifting, like, orders of magnitude less complaints.

Why start a lawsuit over something easily fixed?

>EULAs don't stand in cour-

Yea Forums 'lawyers' BTFO

>certain individuals suing the company have no standing because the ones affected by the Joy-Con drift issue are children. Essentially, Nintendo has claimed that children cannot sue the company because they "allege no cognizable harm to themselves."
>Nintendo's defense cited that the End User License Agreement (EULA) that Switch users must acknowledge before using the system states that they must be over the age of 18 to accept.
that is a fucked up legal argument to make
>"we can harm any children we want and never be punished for it because you have to be 18 to use a Switch despite us marketing all our products mainly to children. get fucked kids LOL"

Kek but its true

>mental gymnastics
They aren't marketing it to kids, they're marketing it to families. The parents are ultimately responsible for the device and accounts on it but the tldr is Nintendo is forcing then to refile because they filed on behalf of their children instead of for themselves. Can you even read retard?

>whataboutisms

Japanese console controllers are made for tiny japanese hands, and since consoles are known to be a toy made for children they are additionally made only for tiny japanese CHILD hands.
This is why XBOX makes the best controllers on the market--XBOX makes controllers for adult AMERICAN men's hands. FUCK YEAH AMERICA

I used both isopropyl and contact cleaner in an attempt to fix it. The former didn't fix it at all and the latter only fixed it for about an hour before I got it again and after a couple days of using contact cleaner it stopped fixing the issue so I had to send them in.
The replacement they sent me had the right Joycon's stick drift on me once but this one was fixed with contact cleaner at least.

Why is it only Nintendo getting sued for this shit? I had an xbox controller drift on me after a few months of use. Most controllers nowadays all get this shit because of the shitty chink parts they're using

Not true. In the past nintendo has had to outright replace stuff or give you supplementary equipment upon request or redeeming something. I dont recall a monetary payout however

That's an european thing. American courts are ruled by the rich.

>Why is my favorite corporate brand in trouble, but not the other one I don't like as much? Why not get them?!!

>Literal manchildren have Nintendo insulting them publicly and fight tooth and nail so they can stop doing the bare minimum to fix drift with RMAs
>Deckchads get drift nipped in the butt day 1 and have easily replaceable sticks sold to them
>Nintendo fans will STILL defend them over nostalgia like a battered wife
Can't make this shit up.

shut up snoy

Honestly, it's not going to end in the fabricators being held accountable for making shit mechanisms that drift after minimal use, and it's not going to end in nintendo redesigning joycons to use a better mechanism. I find it really hard to care how this turns out when the best thing the end user is going to get is a 5$ eshop card like all these fucking claw action lawsuits.
