I bought my soon-to-be-obsolete Switch from Walmart. :smuggo: I'm just being a regular corporate whore instead of a scab.

So has Nintendo made any comments about Joy Con Drift? Will these new colored joycons not drift so quickly?

Yes, they came out with new colors so you can drift differently.

That's a dude. The costume is just draped over the skeleton in such a way as to expose the ribcage (so you know its a skeleton) and because of the ridiculous World of Warcraft shoulder pads/epaulets.

I noticed Kotaku has a front page story in the drift issue now. Maybe games media talking about it will make Nintendo to do something.

Yeah the skeleton is a dude. There's a bunch of anime tits in the source material though with the prime example in that ad.

Also rape and torture. Lots of that too.

Speaking of joycons breaking: I don't think I've had to deal with drift yet, but I feel like I barely used my joycons before I started running into an issue with my left joycon's L button "jamming" slightly on occasion. Anyone else have that problem?

Also, is there any worthwhile 3rd party left joycons that have a D-pad?

e: Also, now I kinda want a picross, haven't picked any up on Switch yet, recommendations? I kinda liked how Pokemon Picross had a meta layer of collecting poo poo and abilities. They should do another one of those.

On the one hand it's picross, but on the other hand part of the fun is trying to figure out what the image is before you finish, and 500 puzzles of "It's... an anime girl!" might get a little old.

2 questions for those of you who bought God Eater 3:

1) How does it run on the Switch?
2) Is the learning curve hard? I tried Monster Hunter and found it really hard to get into but love the idea of just boss fights.

You are probably right. I at least could tell that from the Nintendo website, but if it's not on the box, most parents won't know.

It’s a physical issue with the sticks themselves.

It has to do with the current technology limitations of making sticks that short. When you use them they wear away a pad, if you push more than is needed to get the stick to 100% it will wear it away even faster because it will leave a mark on the pad which means you will have to keep pushing it harder and harder to get it to register 100% Eventually it starts to drift because debris from the pad is floating around and the pad of marks all over it.

The easiest and quickest solution is to just buy a generic replacement stick since it's an off the shelf part. Should run you a under $10 including a screwdriver.

You can also open the controller and clean out the pad mess and get more life out of the current stick. but that involves also opening the stick itself and a replacement is so cheap it's probably not worth your time.

Technically if you're not an employee or someone being brought in to replace a striking worker, you're not a scab, you're crossing the picket line. Not that that's not a bad thing, cause it is, but there's some word stuff for ya :)

This is the first time I have ever heard of the solution to replace the stick with a better one. Any more info on this, or is this just a theory?

It's not replacing the stick with a better one, it's just replacing it with the same thing except not worn out. And no, it's not a theroy, it's something lots of people have done, you can find tutorials on YouTube showing how to do it.

The replacement sticks are often off-brand and there aren't any reports of these developing drift

Tell them to gently caress off and replace them. The warranty is bullshit when they voided it with broken products. At most they could charge you for is shipping.
