New switch issue: BUTTON DRIFT

So nintendo has a new lawsuit coming their way.
This morning my switch wanted to die so it became infected with joy con drift syndrome and button drift.
Just to get this out of the way, by button drift I mean that random buttons are pressed without me doing anything.Its probably a motherboard issue, but STILL. Oh and by the way it sometimes makes the switch's os want to die.
Also the fan is dead so I an worried about dead gpu syndrome that runs in my house.

Button drift? :wtf:

*Looks up the word drift* :ninja: (Now loading...)

a continuous slow movement from one place to another.

Yeah, I don't know if buttons can drift the way a analog stick does. :blink:

Anyway, did you send them to nintendo? They fixed mines for free, I don't have any drifting problems, or input button problems. Make sure to test them first, the controller options on the switch has a input test.

Coming next: battery life drift, pixel drift, wi fi signal drift, digital marketplace drift!
The Switch is in a drifting hell!

PS: perhaps you live in a very dry dusty hot place, been there, had pc and console related gpu problems all along.

Until you can conclusively provide evidence that your phantom button pressing issue is a design fault then you stand zero chance of a successful lawsuit against nintendo. Plus you would need hundreds of other people to also be reporting the same thing happening to them.

Also you calling it button drift is one of the funniest things I have read on here in ages. It's made even better by the fact you put it all in capital letters in the title :rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:

words are suffering from definition drift

but in all seriousness, it sounds like typical water damage symptoms, i guess a faulty CPU might have similar effects, you should send it in for warranty repair, thats the reason it exists to protect consumers from faulty hardware, these things happen, unless its a very common issue like the joy con drift its more than likely either a hardware fault or user damage

    @Veho, where's the poll at?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    https://anbernic.com/blogs/news/get-your-game-on-meet-the-anbernic-rg-cube
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    they're giving the internet an open text box?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I never played or own any of they devices, but I like small style, but with a somewhat grip
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    oh man, that always goes great!
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    im sure half the responses won't be literal racial slurs or "drop table" jokes
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Look, it's China. They know what it's like when you give a poll to half a billion trolls.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much dollar do you think it is?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    ONE MILLION DOLLA
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Probably $150 someone said Anbernic said around the same price as rg556
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    you know which game i wish they would rerelease
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    sonic unleashed
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Make it a happy meal toy
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    that game's engine is really fucking intensive so it runs like literal shit on xbox 360 and ps3
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nah I'm getting value creep again. I look at a $50 console "but for just a few more dollars you could get XYZ" and I end up considering the Steam Deck.
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    like the lighting in that game was genuinely so good
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Not getting dragged into that again.
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    i dont get why they didn't port the one game that ran the worst on consoles, to pc
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    like you port everything to pc except the one game where it would make the most sense. why. what do you gain from this
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    is sega just personally fucking with me? are they laughing while watching me through my kinect camera as i get up to restart my xbox for the third time because the game froze again
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Buy handhelds from five below better quality
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Valve probably going to do another refresh of the deck this fall with rog ally like specs tbh
  • Veho @ Veho:
    A smaller form factor would be nice too.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    A shield portable 2 would be nice aye Nvidia
