Nintendo Switch 2 owners are ripping apart their new Joy-Cons in record time to check the stick drift situation
Fingers crossed

The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo Switch 2 hasn't even been out for a full day - heck, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mario Kart World hasn't even installed on mine yet an🦂d plenty of other fans are still patiently waiting for their pre-orders to arrive - but some early adopters are taking their new Joy-Cons apart to hopefully suss out if stick drift will be a problem again.
澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Joy-Con drift was obviously a loud, very public problem during the OG Switch era, causing the analog sticks to quite literally move by themselves whether you're touching them o♛r not. And it's a problem Nintendo's only vaguely addressed in the lead-up to its new handheld console.

At least one early adopter has now stripped 🔜their Joy-Con 2's down to the bone to see what's really going on. "I took one of the Joy-Con 2's apart and the markings se🐟em to point to them being Alps, and they look so similar to the original Joy-Con sticks inside," they said in a recent Reddit post. "Joy-Con drift lives on in the Switch 2 generation?" (Good spot, !)
There is some hope that, despite the similar-looking design, the "larger" stick size that Kawamoto alluded to could spread the inevitable wear more evenly and, in essence, give stick sensors a bigger canvas to work with, hopefully preventing any🌄 would-be drifting.
Joy-Con drift always seemed like one of those things that was dec𝓀ided by Lady Luck. Some people would have faulty thumb sticks right out of the box, while others went the entire generation without needing to replace their little Joy-Cons, even without a clear correlation between play time and wear or drift. Only time will tell if Nintendo has actually avoided another stick drift situation with the Switch 2, though.
