I have the Diablo 3 Switch, and the bitcoins joycons never developed any noticeable drift. However, I have lost the right controller and need to replace it. I primarily, but not exclusively, play with my ProController and am missing being able to use my Switch hand held.

Have the newer joycons had the drift issue eliminated? Considering the joycon lost is my fourth set, and the only set without drift, I would rather not purchase another set if drift is still happening.

    Joycons suck, badly.
    Apart from the drift and poor battery life,
    they feel bad in your hands.

    Here’s what I did/do:

    1. Install Atmosphere

    2. Install MissionControl
      https://github.com/ndeadly/MissionControl
    3. Connect any good controller(s) you have laying around,
      for me it’s been my DualShock 4 PlayStation controllers.

    The DS4 controllers play much better,
    and have been surviving for much longer as well.

      Dont just go around telling people to jailbreak their switch acting like it’s easy and there no ramifications, that’s how you get your Nintendo account banned and all your digital purchases taken away from you.

        Never said it was easy,
        although this guide claims it is:

        Also, if you paid for Games/DLC,
        then you’re in your right to re-claim those games any way you see fit if Nintendo dares to take them away from you.

          Care to explain that last part? As with any drm protected digital purchase, you are buying a license to use their copy not own the content itself. They are absolutely within their right to pull it whenever they see fit, similar to buying movies and tv shows from a service like iTunes or Amazon should the listening deals with the studios run out.

      I have a Nintendo Pro controller which I use primarily, however sometimes I want my joy cons connected to the Switch itself.
