Joy-cons were fine, until the left stick started to drift. I then shelled out $30 for a wired controller, instead of a $70 Pro Controller. It's been less than a year and that controller's left stick is randomly becoming unresponsive.

It would be nice if a controller's joysticks could go a few fucking years before breaking. I've had secondhand bootleg PS3 remotes that have held out for a good 2-3 years, I would expect a brand new, out-of-the-box licensed controller to hold out for at least that long.

I'm extra salty because I'm playing Asphalt 9, and I'm keeping a pretty high rank - I can generally keep myself within the top 1000 racers in the game. But I just had three multiplayer races in a row where my joystick went completely fucking dead in the middle of a race, which means I can't steer.

I like the Switch, and I like Nintendo, but my experience with their controllers this gen has been horseshit.

And I am done with my graceless heart, so tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
