Long -awaited Nintendo switch 2 finally dropped this week, and while it makes several major improvements on its predecessor – a better screen, beefier internal glasses and more accessible controls – one thing – one thing that it is bad. Repair I fix itIt is even more difficult to fix than the original switch.
Perhaps the most concern for new owners is that, despite a new “ground up” redesign for the switch’s joy-con controllers, the root cause of stick drift-something like this Many owners Long -term complaints have been made from the original – it seems that it seems to have not actually been addressed in Switch 2.

Stick drift is something that can be for joystick, usually over time or under heavy use, where the movement is registered without user inputs. IFIXIT suggests that a low-scorpion joystick technology that depends on the magnets instead of a potentialometer, such as a hall effect or tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) sensor, can help prevent it, but it neither found any of those people present in Switch 2.
“Out of what we can tell, Redigine has not included an amendment in the core tech that causes joystick flow,” writes in Ephixit blog post“As long as the nintendo is using some miraculous new materials on those resistance tracks, or the change in size magically resolves it, the best fix is again coming from third -party replacement.”
Worse, Effixit found that the place of Joy-C-con controllers is actually more difficult this time. “Whatever technique they use … joysticks are a high-front component. They can still break into a drop, even if they never suffer from drifts. Being able to change these things is a high priority for repairing game console game console.”
Overall, IFIXIT has given Switch 2 a repair score of 3 out of 10. This is a point less than 4 out of 10 Recently retrospective Gave the first switch, and Playstation lagged behind the choice of 5 and Xbox Series X, both found 7 out of 10.
