I'm actually depressed to see people celebrating the Switch 2 success to "own the haters" who "said it was gonna fail." This is a $450 product that STILL has problems with stick drifting. If you're paying that much for something shouldn't you expect it to work properly? Shouldn't you expect them to have fixed a problem that has been plaguing the original Switch for 7 years by now?

And yet people are celebrating this success as if it's some sort of big win. This is devastating for gaming because it means you can put minimal effort into your console, so much so that you still haven't fixed stick drift after all these years, and gamers will still reward you for it. If this can succeed with everything going against it, there's nothing they can't get away with.

Oh no, not at all. The DS4 was a nightmare when it came to drifting, the problem is that no one talked about it, most likely due to that cult-like Sony loyalty.
And I'm focusing on Sony in particular because at the time Microsoft was sued for issues with their Elite controller if I remember right so Xbox players at least had a spine.

This. Same with my older console's controllers. Sadly, PS5 has been the worst for me. I'm on my fifth PS5 controller when I've only had two xbox and joycons. I treat my controllers fine though, so I'm always surprised when I get stick drift. It's absolutely poor design/manufacturing.

I mean, Nintendo was sued and the amount of complaints earned then free repairs.
Meanwhile because of the low standards and cult like behavior of sonyfags they went from a controller with major drifting issues that was difficult to repair on your own and no free repairs to a controller that drifts even faster, still no free repairs and a controller that's even harder to open and repair.

>>712528219 (OP)
All currently console controllers have stick drift. It's hilarious you try to pin this on Nintendo somehow. Also, Sony was the first one to put out an 80$ game with the Last of Us part 1 remake.

>>712537429
Switch was the first console gen to be plagued by the increased prevelance of drift from the get-go. They were the first ones to bump standard controller prices up to $70 (and now they're $85). They never addressed the problem mechanically despite charging an undeserved premium for their controllers. This is why they get so much shit for it.

The company that produces the joystick boxes basically has a global monopoly on them so everyone sources it from the same place. So if they decided to go dogshit with their quality there is little the other companies can do other than hoping for a viable competitor.

And yes Hall effect may have other manufacturers... but it's not just a question of price, but also "do they even have the capacity to produce the parts needed in the quantity desired if we order from them?" and THAT'S where it basically falls apart. Because money can't buy infinite production capacity RIGHT NOW.

>>712538918
>Switch was the first console gen to be plagued by the increased prevelance of drift from the get-go.
That would be the ps4 with the dualshock 4. You can find a lot of people complaining about drift back in 2014 if you look the problem is that Sony has the protection of journalists and fanboys who won't ever mention it.
>They were the first ones to bump standard controller prices up to $70 (and now they're $85).
That would again, be Sony with Dualsense. The joycon aren't standard controllers, they not only have more features but also use considerably smaller parts which means more money spent and were in fact sold at a loss on their own.
The dualsense also went up in price last year.
>They never addressed the problem mechanically despite charging an undeserved premium for their controllers.
No one did, but Nintendo is also the only company to try and rectify it by offering free repairs rather than sweeping it under the rug.
>This is why they get so much shit for it.
Yeah, technically. No one bothered looking into what was the first to have major issues or if the price was justified based on manufacturing costs so they got irrationally mad rather than having an actual reason to.

>>712529036
The ps2 controller has an anti-drift function in the firmware.
If you push the joystick in all directions the controller will automatically re calibrate the center. Only very few games actually disabled that feature. I think one of the only ones that did is Black, so if you want to see if your controller actually has drift, either don't move the joystick until you are in gameplay. Or maybe just try booting up Black and see if aiming is screwed up.

>>712541417
>These kinds of launches are always like this.
No, no it isn't. Most consoles launch at the end of the year to make use of holiday sales, this is slap bang in the middle of the year with no significant holidays and it's breaking records left and right worldwide completely smashing previous records by double or triple which is unprecedented.

>>712542725

>That would again, be Sony with Dualsense.
No, dumbshit. The Switch 1 Pro Controller was $70 from day one. And I know Nintendo fans now have dysnumeria, but 2017 actually comes BEFORE 2020.
>Nintendo is also the only company to try and rectify it by offering free repairs rather than sweeping it under the rug.
They also tried denying the problem existed, and the existence of repair program had to be leaked out by customer service.

Im depressed to see people hating on the switch 2. Nintendo is by far the most consumer friendly of the big 3 and the one company that seems to genuinely understand what video games are about. Edgy teenagers think that they are really doing something by hating on nintendo and they are just so misinformed.

Also, retards not understanding inflation. 80 dollar games are more than justified and its not Nintendos fault. Blame a politician if you don't like inflation.

They did. They designed a new stick which specifically has changes made in response to the fault points of the previous one. What else do you want them to do, lube the stick with Mario's cum?

>>712542989
Wii U and 3DS were both smash hits at launch, both selling out, and then they both cratered hard after that initial launch window. Hyped up devices like this doing extremely well at launch and only being constrained by supply is the norm.

Meanwhile the previous year in an actual statement from Nintendo.

I do remember one from 2018 but I can't find it either way yeah, you fell for a journalist lie.
That said in that same article they have another instance of Nintendo acknowledging it a few month earlier that same year https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/nintendos-president-issues-first-joy-con-drift-apology/
Funnily enough they lied and claimed it was the first public acknowledgement despite the fact that we can find one a year prior.
Anyway, if you actually read the article nowhere do they actually quote Nintendo saying that they denied it. At most you get this
>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.
But no proof that that were the words they use. Strange, huh?

You want to know something funny? That "leaked" the same day the officially announced that they were going to do it for free.

>>712545817
Drift isn't any more common on Nintendo than it is on other platforms, you only hear about it more often because more people have Switch than any other modern console and Switch owners tend to own more controllers because of local multiplayer.

All of the joysticks used by Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft are manufactured by a company called Alps, and all 3 companies are suffering from drift. The problem isn't Nintendo nor any of the other problems, it's Alps.

>>712546109
Yeah, that too.

Yeah, Nintendo oriented YTers are gonna be bootlicking but why the fuck are you acting like this shit is news?
