Nintendo says it will repair all Joy-Con controllers suffering from Joy-Con drift in the EEA and UK, even if they’re out of warranty.
website notes that anyone with a drifting Joy-Con can send it in for a free repair, regardless of how hold it is.
This is currently Nintendo’s policy in other regions such as North America, but this new development means it now extends to the EEA , the UK and Switzerland. “Until further notice, Nintendo will not charge you in the European Economic Area , UK and Switzerland for the repair of the responsiveness syndrome irrespective of whether this is caused by a defect or by wear and tear,” the site states.The only exceptions to this are if the issue has been caused by a third-party accessory, if it has been caused by accidental damage or negligence, or if someone has already opened up the controller to try to fix the stick.
since its launch in 2017, and despite revisions in the Joy-Con internals, it’s a problem that reportedly persists, even with newly issued Joy-Con controllers.
