- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Definitely
Any way I can fix without bringing it back, it's going to take at least a week for it
I've not tried it but if you've got some electrical contact cleaner you could spray some in, move it around a bit and see if it resets back to centre. Let it dry out for a bit before powering it on.
As far as I know a lot of controllers (joycons, DS5, etc.) Have the same issue as they all use the same internal part.
You could possibly order one and have a go at replacing it. Seems a lot for something defective pretty much right out the box though.
