Nice of you to give back to your community

Lil reminder. Hall effect sticks is a thing since dreamcast.

[Soguwe]

Stick drift isn't inevitable. It's a result of shoddy workmanship.
They deliberately use sensors that wear out after just 400 hours of use, so you have to buy new controllers.
If they used hall effect sensors the problem straight up wouldn't exist

[MR_NVA]

Holy shit 20$ for replacement?!?! Nintendo has it's problems but it's a 4$ kit for tools and both joysticks replacement

[Zinkolo]

We already solved this problem and better

They're called hall effect joysticks

[IMDYT]

it’s crazy cause all company’s have to due is start using Hall effect sticks and POOF all the stick drift problems are gone. It doesn’t solve the loose spring issue but it’s a lot better than traditional sticks and uses magnets instead of resistive pads.

"stick drift going to happen" oh Sega.. we miss you and the Dreamcast more and more every day

[davidh]

Drifting like NASCAR makes plenty of sense

[DarkSoulx]

We've reached a point where I think we would all rather have the cheaper controllers that function as well as the previous gens did. I don't know what they did that made stick drift a regular thing but I remember you had to intentionally beat the hell out of your controller for it to have stick drift. In the days of PS4 and prior, I never had stick drift. I've gone through 3 PS5 controllers in 2 years.

"Stick drifted more than nascar" is a crazy insult😭

[ambassada]

It blows my mind how controllers from the 90s and early 2000s still working with thousands of houes of play time on them and still work but all new controllers break after a year

[Ramdomdude]

I just got a lil too late to redeem the code 😭

[uestionbaby]

Yup, it 100% build to break. For god sake please just use hall effect analog

[sirmrmcjack]

That's why I try to repair my stuff. Sure it's difficult and takes time, but it's a hobby of mine and I have a great deal of fun repairing broken things! And if the repair didn't work then you didn't make anything worse, it's broken after all

I’ve had this controller for about 2 years now and I’m gonna bless yall with a random comment I found many moons ago on a review video. All you need to do when stick drift happens is pop out the module, unscrew the three lil screws, pull out the inner module and pull off the rubber thumb stick on top. Then rotate that baby around a bunch, click it, blow into it, fiddle with that thang for a minute or so. Put her all back together and bam, good as new. It’ll then last for another 2-4 weeks before you have to take her apart again (depending on how much you use it, using it more often tends to keep my sticks good for longer which seems counterintuitive) but I’ll take it for an extremely accurate controller that allows me to fix stuck drift whenever it occurs. Yw

Ps2 and gamecube controllers still working like a champ but ive got 2 xbox x/s controllers and a set of switch joycons that make you spin like a top

[BirkinIdk]

I’ve genuinely never personally had stick drift in my life. I’ve been using the same wired xbox 360 controller for my PC since like 2013 and it still works flawlessly

[pringle]

How many times do we need to say this...

HALL EFFECT STICKS NEVER DRIFT!!!

[twiellie]

The idea was simply unmatched. The end result was something destined for trash cans. Gaming peripherals have got to be one of the most "Engineered to fail" products, right behind automobiles.

[ParotandArmorfinish]

Manufacturers will develop proprietary magnetically detachable thumb sticks before they switch to Hall effect. Incredible.
