In recent years and with the launch of Nintendo's hybrid platform Switch, we are not going to put an end to the problems of Joy-Cons or controllers, which were largely represented in the deviations of the control wheel, or what is known as drifting. The problem has always been and still is a hindrance until now.
This problem can cause involuntary movements in the game and can ruin the entire user experience, and even if you don't move the stick, the problem will haunt you until you buy a new console, and that's why the British Supervisory Authority called on Nintendo to compensate users who bought consoles or even doing heavy maintenance work on the Joy-Cons.
While the issue continues to occur and with these lawsuits the company still persists, Nintendo has insisted that they are constantly improving the consoles to the point where the problem is less frequent on the new Joy-Cons, but unfortunately there are now still so many older Switch platforms in active use that it could have the same Joy-Con issue at any time. But it seems that the company will stick to new tests and agreements.
The company has been commissioned to conduct an independent investigation into the causes of Joy-Con drift and to release its findings to the public in a “no equivocation” pledge. It will also offer free repair or replacement for all consoles sold in the UK since launch in 2017 that have been found to be drifting since launch, even if they are out of warranty.
The issue became the focus of everyone's attention, at first the user was approving the same thing, but the issue widened due to a class action lawsuit in the United States in July 2019.
