Joy-Con (L-R) - The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Edition forNintendo Switch

Product Information

My take on this: while it looks like the wear on the graphite pads doesn't cause the drift issues, it will at some point, because that's how normal controllers start to drift. TLDR: the fix is a great way to increase the lifespan of your Joycon if it already has drift but is not an optimal fix for Nintendo.

Fellow YouTuber Erica Griffin responded to this, noting how it's apparently been a "good while" since these "foam pads" have been in the Joy-Con, but they won't necessarily resolve the drift issues: I first saw them on my neon purple and orange joy-con, Oct 2019. I reshell these things all the time. It has the pads and still drifts a bit. *shrug* Silly fix for a multifaceted issue." With regards to aiming arrow shots and other motion controlled aspects relating to Link's various gadgets and tools, you can still use the gyroscopic controls with the button scheme to aim and fine-tune shots and there are options in the game's menu to enable or disable the gyro-controlled camera.

I have three pairs that I’ve owned since 2017 but would have them collecting dust since I always use my Pro Controller with the Switch connected to the TV. over the years, I did notice drift on some, some buttons not working on others and so on. oh, and I’ve also managed to drop one and spill drinks on others. to sum it up, I’ve been careless with these controllers to the point that I only had two out of six Joy-Cons functioning. I procrastinated for years to send them in because I had a fear I would rightfully be charged. The fact that Nintendo were repairing them for free in the US outside the warranty period suggests it wasn't an issue with user misuse.

My Joy Cons I've ALWAYS been careful with, and both of my pairs STILL DRIFTED multiple times. And even then, dust is EVERYWHERE, so Nintendo should have made a controller that's much more dust resistant, but nah, just blame the fans for not "taking care of the controllers" even though there's almost no damn way to avoid this problem because everyone has dust in their house of some capacity, and the controllers should have some sort of resistance against dust in the first place, like, notice how little people complained about the PS4, Xbox, Wii U, Wii, or even Switch Pro Controller drifted, because those cases aren't as bad/widespread as with the Joy Cons.

Announced on January 12, 2021, this third red controller variant (after the "Neon Red" originals and the "Red" Joy-Con set that accompanied the launch of Super Mario Odyssey) was only sold in a bundle with the standard Nintendo Switch console (and not part of Japan's custom color program), making it a new special edition Joy-Con rather than a standalone color variety. The Skyward Sword Joy-Cons feature both HD Rumble and motion controls, like all other Joy-Con models.
