Was one of the kids who tore open their hands on the 64 control stick, doing tug of war in Mario Party. I even wore a thick felt glove and the friction tore through that too! (But I beat the story mode because of it!)
Got electrocuted from the ds lite charger, wasn't a fault on my end. And bought a refurbished ds lite from nintendo that had the screen burned in still (kept it anyway, and still runs even after 12 years)
Broke both shoulder buttons on the dsi at once, I assume it was because I was using it as a music player at the time, and the pressure from my pant leg broke them, or unsynced them.
And then I've gone through 6 pairs of joycons, simply just playing my switch from over use. (10-12 hour days, 5-7 days a week)
Pretty sure the naysayers are either: People who are lying about actually owning the system, or barely played it since they bought it and haven't experienced it yet, since their controllers have barely been touched.
I've gone through six sets of controllers since buying my system on launch day. And each controller has been lucky to have lasted roughly 4 months before they break. This is the only system, after owning all of their systems, that I have ever had issues with. I take really good care of my hardware, and I'm being punished for playing their system for many hours on end.
I'm not looking for money, I just want them to actually make the fix people have been waiting years for, and if this is what it takes, so be it.
And to answer some questions about if I contacted nintendo. Yes, I did, and while I had my warranty, they didn't fix them they sent me my broken one back (I checked the serial code.) and sent a brand new one in response. And then when the others broke, I was told I had to pay $42 for repairs after the warranty was up (Not including shipping). That's the price of a brand new single joycon, which they conveniently stopped selling.
@Ryu_Niiyama I may find myself a massive nintendo fanboy, but even I'm not this delusional.
On a different note, I have 6 pairs of joycons they can use as proof. The right joycons are just as bad as the left. Hoping this makes them change this. And they've lost a class action before, look at mario party 1.

@LUIGITORNADO Except if you actually looked at the news, you'd find out that they changed things up a bit...

Re: Nintendo Will Reportedly Fix Joy-Con Drift For Free And Refund Customers Who Paid
@Gravitron I did contact them a few months ago in fact. They said they could fix them for $40, and I live in the US, so you're wrong there.
Re: Class Action Lawsuit Officially Filed Against Nintendo For Switch Joy-Con "Drifting" Issues
@Ryu_Niiyama Nintendo has already lost a few class actions, and has it affected them in a major way? No. Once again, you're being delusional.
