The left stick is fucked. The A button is fucked.

Why is everything so fucked? Yet my 22 year old N64 controller still works perfectly. Get it together Doug Bowser, this is embarrassing.

It doesn't have full range. Specifically, the deadzone extends all the way up. I have to push it up as far as I possibly can to get barely any movement.

My joycons were fucked within a few months of owning my Switch. Constant desyncs and drifting while docked. They are the only controllers I own that have any sort of issue.

Why would the switch have Netflix? Why did the Wii U, the 3ds, and the Wii? Why does the switch have Hulu and YouTube?

They who? Nintendo? Why did they have it on every system before? What other feature have they dropped?

every single joycon is fucked

nintendo really dropped the ball on qa there, like it's ridiculous

it's not even a case of someone getting a good batch and not ever having these issues, no.

Maybe something happened between them. Maybe NetFlix found out how much Hulu and Nintendo were doing together. And became the jealous ex...

This has been very eye opening.

Don't think I'll be buying too many Joycon controllers when I do finally get a Switch. It's a damn shame too because I really enjoyed collecting different colored Wii motes and Wii Classic controllers. Those things were built like a tank ffs...

...So wtf happened?

I've had my Switch for 8 and half months and my joycons work fine.

Launch day switch owner here.
I have no issues with my joycons.

I do believe you're having issues, but it's not like it's an every switch case.

Drift issues like a month, two max, after getting the Switch.
With only moderate play as well.

We don't have the receipt anymore, which iirc it requires.

The drift isn't even the same in all games. There's one I literally can't play because it drifts CONSTANTLY but can play other games with much milder/infrequent drift.

Not in all regions. You see, while they are getting sued over Joycons in some countries, others aren't.

Unfortunately, that is still unknown. There is a very similar part with a similar identification code, but how well they will last is to be seen.

Where did you buy it? I got mine at EB Games (NZ) and they allowed replacement so customers didn't need to deal with Nintendo themselves. Their loyalty card has my purchase.

Do they have non-joycon controllers that you can use? Besides the GC controller.

The one you push with your thumb? That one. Thumbstick. Not dpad. That's the one that goes unresponsive

Someone can't get the correct terminology down.
