A YouTuber claims to have found a fix for the Nintendo Switch's Joy-Con drift using nothing more than a very small piece of cardboard.
Nintendo's Switch is on route to becoming the company's best-selling home console of all time. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:It has surpassed 85 milli🐷on units sold and could well further its claim to the crown 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:via the release of the OLED model later this year. All of this༒ dꦿespite having an issue that has plagued the console since it first launched.
That issue is, of course, Joy-Con drift. There have been reports of the Switch's Joy-Con controllers suffering from drift since 2017, and lawsuits in place since 2019. However, Nintendo has barely acknowledged that drift is a real issue, let alone offered up a fix. What makes that even worse than it appears on the surface is a YouTuber appears to have demonstrated how easy a fix for drift would be for Nintendo to implement.
VK's Channel posted a video showing how they fixed their own Joy-Con, and it seems to have worked. The fix requires nothing more than a small piece of cardboard, about 1mm thick, placed neatly inside of the controller. VK's Channel explains that drift is caused when the metal plate inside of the Joy-Con becomes separated from the stick, affecting its accuracy and resulting in drift.
A small piece of card can be placed under the plate. That results in pressure being applied to the plate which pushes it back up towards the stick. VK's Channel also claims the renewed contact will clear up any dust and dirt that has gathered on the plate since it separated which makes drift even worse. The video even includes a note for Nintendo, explaining that the addition of a single screw to future Joy-Con controllers will prevent drift from happening in future models.
Drift has plagued Nintendo for four years, resulting in multiple lawsuits and even an investiga▨tion conducted by the European Commissioꦓn. The problem has also reared its head for Nintendo's rival. A separate class-action lawsui꧋t has been filed against PlayStation after PS5 users claim the same has been happening to them via the DualSense. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:A similar case filed against Xbox more than a year ag𒊎o is currently in arbitration.
