Technology is always going to have some faults, especially those that are still in their growing stages. That doesn't make it feel any better though.

The Nintendo Switch in particular has had its fair share of growing pains since its launch last year, and one of the most prominent is 'drifting'.

Essentially referring to one of the Joy-Cons inputting without their being any buttons pressed or controllers moved, think of it as the controller working on its own, only it's really annoying instead of cool.

Most people have reported the drifting to happen on their left Joy-Cons, but it's also been seen to happen to the other as well. No side is safe here it seems.

In all fairness to Nintendo, they've offered a lot of users free repairs, but it's just yet another issue for the Nintendo Switch for a console that has already seen its fair share.

It doesn't help that Joy-Cons are ridiculously expensive as it is.
