What annoys me the most about the drifting issue, is not the fact that it's happening, is that the Joy Cons are so fucking expensive depsite being defective
Honestly, their price is insane. Nintendo should cut it by half.
I was in Japan and wanted to buy a Joy Con pair, and in Japan it's supposed to be the cheapest, and it was still damn expensive

Cut the fucking price by half. This is the difference between "I won't buy it" and "hmm, I don't really need it, but it doesn't cost too much, so why not"
And the difference between "fuck, I will send it to repair for two weeks and play on my PS4 instead" and "I'll send it to repair but buy another set of Joy Cons"

I'm pretty sure the last time you could get a controller for half the price of a joy-con was PS2 era. That was wired, had no motion controls, and there's been plenty of inflation since. They could maybe knock 10-15 off, but not half off. And since this is now the era of even more personalized controller color schemes the lower batch production of certain shells and buttons may even make that cut impossible.
