Ni💫ntendo’s notorious Joy-Con drift issue can apparently be fixed with just a scrap bit of paper according to a YouTuber.
In a video titled ‘How To Fix Your Joy-Con Drift Permanently’, aspiring video game developer and YouTuber, shows fellow Nintendo Switch owners hoℱw they can fix the incredibly frustrating Joy-Con drift that has plagued the Nintendo Switch controller since the console’s release.
According to VK, all you need to do is open the controller up and place a small square of paper/cardboard that’s around 1m🎐m in size on the back of the joystick’s metal contact pad. This tiny alteration has apparently saved the YouTuber two months' worth of Joy-Con drift in both of their controllers.
Later in the video, VK explains that over time the metal enclosure holding the joystick in place becomes loose due to being pushed in constantly. By placing the piece of card in the Joy-Con, you💫’re tightening up the space created between ꦏthe Joy-Con and its contacts thus fixing the drifting issue for good.
This seemingly insignificant, but hopefully lifelong fix, will sa𒐪ve several Nintendo Switch owners, as well as Nintendo Switch Lite players, from having to face the dreaded Joy-Con drift ever again, although do be warned that opening up your Joy-Con in the manner described will void your warranty.

That isn’t to say that Nintendo has ignored the issue as they did offer repairs and refunds for any faulty Joy-Cons, even if their warranty had run out, in Summer 2019. The company’s US President Doug Bowser also more recently stated that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo plans to "make improvements" to thꦺe console’s signature controllers in December la💯st year.
What Nintendo has recently upgraded however is the Switch console itself as they introduced the new 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo Switch OLED model last week.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, co🅺zy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I'm also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
