My drift is literally so bad that I can’t even recalibrate it.
Andrew Cunningham sane idk what to do
Same
Touch screen?
you actually can still recalibrate it by holding the analog stick in the middle, tricking the Switch into believing that you let go of it. but if ur at this point then it honestly wouldn't help recalibrating anyway.
Mine too but it worked with second method

Why do $80 controllers drift?
Exactly, they’re cheaply made yet sell for tons. Absurd
Dominic Mallano because they are made in China poorly, on top of that Nintendo suck at analogue stick design. Nintendo 64 sticks had grinding issue where it would then wobble after it grinded into powder.
@@jelqmaster *_Eviltendo,_* eh?
Because nintendo has shitstain quality control

Hah
Are you still playing Zelda yess 😁 how far are you 😁👌🏾
Hey! If you have the drift, and don't have the cleaner and you don't want to deconstruct your joycon, I would recommend just getting a regular plastic straw. Try to put it under the plastic that's on the joystic, and then blow through it. Repeat this for a while and the dust under the stick should disappear. It's actually really simple and it helped me to fix my drift, so I hope this helps!

You're telling me you have 17 out of 17 working joycons while 70% of all joycons I've encountered have drifting issues.
He probably doesn't use most of them, so they don't have issues.
Mine were drifting so I replaced them, and not 1 week after I took this new pair home, the left started drifting. Whoopdy freakin doo.
Not to be a PS4 fanboy but none of my Dualshock 4s have been damaged due to an accident.
The most accidental damage I have witnessed was when the left stick of my first controller was slightly less precise after intense panicking in fights and generally going ham on the left stick because I can't build that well.
I fixed mine once, but it happened again.
wait if he has 17 where is the odd 1 out
Me: "Okay, I need to ever so carefully and slowly get across this clif"
My Joycon: "COWABUNGA IT IS!!!!"

My drift got so extremely bad that i got desperate and couldn't wait, so i used a LCD screen cleaner and sprayed that, and it dead ass worked. its been 10 minutes and so far its working without drift
EDIT: Spoke too soon, the drift came back, maybe i didn't clean it enough, i did 1 spray and let it dry
EDIT: IT WORKS
EDIT: Dont do what I did, joycon stopped working, im an idiot AHAHAH was worth the try
Lol thanks for the warning
This post was a rollercoaster
Why would you put any form of liquid on the stick??
*people get desperate my dood*
From now on when cleaning your electronics it's much safer to use isopropyl alcohol or IPA for short. A 90% concentration will evaporate quickly and do a fine job of removing stuck on dirt and grime.
You are blessed with 17 joy-con than don’t drift.
But my problem isn’t realy drifting. My problem is that when I let go of the joy-con, the circle gets slowly back to the middle.
Welp, probably method 3 or get a new one
The cleaner(or even just blowing on it) should still work on that. It is still slightly drifting and the cause is still likely just dust
That means that it's got sticky stuff on the stick somewhere
Have you been eating while playing thats the problem
Similar concept. The same methods could fix it

do it right before buying replacements. if u mess up then get new ones like u would've anyway, if u don't then u just saved urself $80.

Anonymous yes, all controllers have that issue but the joy-cons are smaller, different, and poorly designed leading to a much greater chance of drifting.
Edit: I’d also would much rather have a pro controller over the small joycons since it’s way more comfortable
@Anonymous they really nailed the pro controller drifting on it is a very small chance
Because they wasted money on filling it with said shit instead of acutal quality.
The amount of times I've had to deal with joycon drifting is ridiculous, but Nintendo at least replaced the first two ones with the built-in, year-long warranty.

Thumbs up and Subbed!
UPDATE: A little bit of the drift has come back, but it is absolutely not as bad as when I started out needing to fix it.
If the drift comes back, give the analog stick another few sprays with the contact cleaner from different angles and it should continue to work! (Or that's what has worked so far for me at least, anyway).

For Method 1. When you are the calibrate screen. Don't just take that cross as saying its fine. Flick the control a few times around and let it rest without you touching it and see if the cross stays.
Also note that a "contact cleaner" you may have already in your house is isopropyl alcohol. Use 99% pure stuff though.

eXtremeAzure hmm
@TPG64 so did it? 🤔
I might have to give that a try. Was working fine before smash Ultimate came out.
Me in Breath of the Wild, about to stop looking around:
My right joystick: haha randomly looking around when you stop go brr
okay seriously though thanks, the first method worked
Just imagine the Minecraft Server players
*Teleporting in 5 seconds, don't move*
I'm so jealous that all 18 (including your fiancee's) joycon are drift free!!!! I just have 2 sets and both left joycons drift to the left
Same
Easy solution. Buy PS4 controllers. Now he'll be jealous of how good of a condition they are in.
No offense but Switch controllers are not so reliable. Older Nintendo controllers and consoles are better. I've had a few accidents with my 3DS and the only thing that could damage it was water.
I don't think I had accidents with my wii remotes but they look stronger than joy-cons.
@@موسى_7 very Tru I have 2 really nice PS4 controllers already but I once had a co-worker tell me that her boyfriend was playing on the switch he took off one of the joycons and he tripped and it completely shattered downstairs..
Exactly!!!
Both of my sticks drift down
2:43 "As instructed!" *Rotates the stick the wrong way...*
me: trying to play splatoon 2
my right joy con: *lets look at the floor!!*
Slowly moving left in a platforming game, try it, you’ll die
Try making a Mario Maker level, getting the camera in one place is like catching a giant fish!!!
mine drifts up...
its annoying as hell.
my left joycon always goes down and i just wanna play smash in peace
I know, when i play Splatoon the joy con goes down and doesn't let me spalt my opponent
DiePenutButter yep, me too, i also stole my dads credit card
Same, I literally can't crouch or run. Also as a side note don't make Mario Maker levels with Drifting Joy Cons, it's like catching a giant fish except that fish is the screen.
Mine always goes up 😭
Mine just flat our refuses to go down. It'll drift in every other direction but when I want to make my character walk down it doesn't work???? Like what even I have to walk in zig zags now
Me: *plays splatoon 2*
Drifting: “Let me help u with ur gameplay”
Me: WTF! I’m not...oooo...argh...COME ON!!!!
Ivy Grace
me: about to to clutch for my team
Drifting: “hey look at the ceiling cool amirite”
me: (: kill me
Joy con drifting makes it IMPOSSIBLE to choose any gear unless you want to play a randomization game which I despise
Bro so relatable
@@LateNlght Me: **Plays ranked**
My left joycon: **Has mental breakdown**
This video contains WAAAAYYYYY too much fluff. get to the farking point. jesus. i dont have all day. you're fired.
@Meme Man For Smash! ok, you're right. No one should ever get worked up about someone wasting the precious, FINITE time they have left on this planet.
Nintendo Life: Where oh where can I find a drifting controller I can fix, I wonder?
Me: * crying hard and desperately trying to shove my joycon through the screen * LINK WON'T STAND STILL! HE. JUST. WON'T. STAND. STILL!!!
ikr TT
I just made it to elite smash with Diddy Kong and Joycon Drift...
Zero would be proud of ya
Same Thing but With bowser
thank god I bought a pro controller.
*wait a minute*
*runs to his room*
Yeah, drifting happens on my Pro Controller. Nintendo should really get their stuff together.
@@PixelSP I'm lucky to have PS4 since I keep having accidents (despite the fact that I am very protective of them [ironic]) with my DS4s and they are still in perfect condition.

drifting sucks now I can’t play smash ultimate anymore :(
ive had the drift issue on every single Nintendo product with a stick that I've owned
Me I’m splatoon: spin I’m circles like I dooo and tilt the whole switch just to move my character the way I want
