Topic: Joy-Con Creaky Trigger

The ZL trigger on my left joy-con is creaking already after only a few hours of Zelda. Is this normal? Looking at it from the end, the grey plastic piece between L and ZL is what's moving/creaking. I'm hesitant to send it in to Nintendo and have them do nothing or break something else.

@neilt6 so your hesitant to use your warranty because you don't trust the company providing that warranty?

@ValhallaOutcast I read a horror story of someone sending his joy-con in for a loose trigger (not the same problem as mine), and not only did they not fix it, but they engraved a Z on it...

how do people enjoy their joycons 1.0?
mine will arrive on friday and with all those posts im kinda afraid they will be faulty?
how often or problematic is the bluetooth disconnection? only with right or left joycon?
how fast do the batteries of the joycons charge or discharge?
what about the creaky ZL button? how cheap is the built quality? alot of creaky noises because of rubbing plastic parts or are there bumpers or solutions?
anyway happy gamin lookin forward to the gyro controls in MK8 deluxe

@Stereoman I have no complaints with my right joy-con, but my left one seems a little crappy. A brand new controller shouldn't have creaky buttons that feel worn out right from day one. Looking at some teardown pictures, it looks like the trigger is mounted differently in the left joy-con versus the right, which is why I was wondering if this is just par for the course or worth sending for repair.

I ended up sending it into Nintendo after all, and they sent me a brand new one with a rock solid ZL button. So definitely not normal.
