      Kendell Adams I’ve bought three pairs. I’ve never mishandled my switch and never been rough with my joy cons and yet they all started drifting after a similar amount of time. It’s a hardware problem, not the players...

      @kayleighviegas9115 4 роки тому +1

      @@sillaykara6245 I agree, but it's a bit of both, some joycons are faultier and drift more easily than others. My friend has had their switch for a bit longer than me, and plays far more aggressively, but haven't had their joycons drift yet, while mine, which I'm very careful with do. But my other friend who's had their switch the same amount of time I've had it, is also very rough and has drift. It all just depends

    Honestly the first trick isn’t even that useful for sword and shield because the eggs hatch SUPER quick when you have a Pokémon with flame body in your party and it takes longer and is more irritating to undo the rubber bands to check its stats, or grab a new egg and stuff than just manually biking in circles.

    • @supernintendozack-snz7493

    • @davinderkaur2757
      @davinderkaur2757 4 роки тому +2

      Well I’m pretty sure it’s for shiny hunting, I personally don’t check stats when shiny hunting since I have tons of
      Bottle caps and candies so I can hyper train my Pokémon’s stats. You don’t really have to take off the rubber band by the way you can keep it on, I moved around while it was on and I had no trouble. I think this method is good for when you are watching videos and you want to have small intermissions so you can understand and enjoy the video.

    • @MrMoose-mf1oy

      Davinder Kaur I guess everyone likes things different. For me I tried this and it was very counterintuitive even for shiny hunting.

  • @kayleighviegas9115
    @kayleighviegas9115 4 роки тому +1

    If you use something called electrical contact cleaner ( you can find it on amazon or hardware stores for like $7) it works like a charm to fix joycon drift. Spray it under the little "skirt" on the joystick, circle the stick around a few times, then leave it for like 5 minutes. It doesn't always work, but it's worth a shot!

    If you don't like the thought of adhesive on your switch, you could also always get one of the suction cup animals I always see at checkouts too. I've been using one for a couple months on a switch light, and have not noticed any deformation of the plastic from being under suction all the time in the same spot.
