Of course it is. Unless they switched to hall effect sticks, which they already said they weren't doing. For whatever reason, they still want to save the pennies instead of using the better component even after the previous issues and lawsuits. Why do companies insist on shooting themselves in the foot constantly?

Wht spend pennies when you can sell more conrollers? They know that Nintendo boys don't care about money

They were literally forced to fix/replace broken joycons for free because of the drift issue. In case you weren't aware. I sent two sets away to be fixed, all expenses paid.

That costs them lots of money.

Probably made more from every schmuck who didn't know they would be replaced for free and bought extra.

Yeah, exactly this. I'm sure they did the math.
