Nintendo Says Joy-Con Drift is NOT REAL

Nintendo is reportedly arguing that Switch Joy-Con drift “isn’t a real problem or hasn’t caused anyone any inconvenience”. Those are the words of Chimicles Schwartz Kriner & Donaldson-Smith (CSK&D), a US law firm which is calling on consumers to provide video accounts detailing the negative experiences they have had with Nintendo Switch controllers. The drifting Joy-Con issue—which causes analogue sticks to register movement even when untouched—was brought to wider public attention with the company’s filing of a class action lawsuit in July 2019.
