I know about the drift issue on the joycon prior to purchasing despite getting the maxsoft warranty. Got a 8bitdo controller just to get my mind out of the joycon drift.

Used game is fine and a cheaper option after digital copy

My joycons are since launch day and I got the drifting issue once only, just re-calibrate and all done, never happened after.

If you check the fix on youtube, there is quite a lot, not that hard to fix tbh.

Drifting issue is permanent as it will come again n again.
using WD40 spray can temporary fit it
buying additional controller is better option and ur hands feel less tired (more ergonomic?).

Thanks for the advice guys, just ordered a Switch along with a Mayflash adapter, hope all these are worth it!

Free repair for joycon

Was wondering, what about malaysia here ?

Do we send over for free ?

For Malaysia nothing as no official Nintendo store here sadly

Sad case

Mine also drift after half year

Try email Nintendo directly, asking for guidance

Hi guys, just got my Switch on Monday and playing Zelda BOTW, I played in handheld for 2 nights and last night I decided to play on tv, after playing for 2 nights the battery level is at 13% so I dock it to charge first before I turn it on to play, after charged for more than an hour I turn it on together my tv screen also on and showing the battery level now is 79% then I start playing BOTW, after played for 15 minutes I go back to home screen to check the battery level and it is now at 81%, so I continued to play and believe that the battery is still charging normally but then after 2 hours I go back to home screen to check and the battery level now only 85%, so is this normal? Is this mean the Switch charging became slow when playing in docked mode?

Sounds normal to me.

Is a relief to see your answer, I'm totally new with this thing, btw I prefer to play PS4 more.

Any idea when the upgraded switch making its way here? Am thinking if I should just get one now or wait for the improved version..

It's going to be released mid August in US. So maybe late August or later in September. Not that long of a wait. I would wait.

Ah cool. Looking forward to it xD

It's normal cause u cant expect the input of charging can exceed the processing of playing

sleep mode/ shut down mode charging = 100%

Giving that play game = 80% of processing
Charging speed probably = 20% speed

Just got my first Switch and Fire Emblem 3 House today, loving every moment so far! Although the console can get a bit warm at times but that's to be expected I guess.

Anyone here know any good repair shops for the nintendo switch joycons in Klang valley area? Got 2 pairs of joycon and both left analogs got drift ;((((

Is it even worth to pay to fix the joycons?

Thanks for your info, love the freedom of this thing, the more I play it the more I like it.
