So, my both my JoyCon have a bad drift, and the extra one I got also have the same issue. I am looking for some third party handheld controller for Switch.

Only need it for handheld, since Pro Controller is pretty great and I have no issue with it when playing docked.

I have done some research, but was hoping to get some personal feedback from the lovely people in the community.

So, any recommendations?

    Alternatively, get in touch with Nintendo if you’re in the part of the world where they offer free replacements / fixes. This would be the most cost effective solution.

      Yeah, I’m in Canada and had a great experience.

      I don’t think they give you back the same Joy-Con though. So if you have a special model, I can understand not wanting to go that route.

      Yeah, I’ve sent mine in to get fixed a few times. it’s hit or miss. Once they sent me back one that was scratched. I complained, sent it back, they sent me another one, but it ended up being the same exact one. After all was said and done they ended up sending me a brand new one for all the hassle. Also be aware if you send a special joycon that you may not get that one back.
