🍄 Missed your jump over the mushroom?

🔫 Splatted next to your target?

🚧 Drifted your kart outside the track?

This shall happen no more!

We contacted Nintendo to address the recurring problem with defective Switch controllers and they agreed to offer all consumers the right to repair, free of charge, even beyond the legal guarantee!

This will prevent the disposal of unrepaired controllers and unnecessary waste.

@EU_Commission they better apply this to other places. Also, they should require no proof of purchase since I obtained my switch 2nd hand.

@EU_Commission Great news for people in the EU, but why are you trying to jump over a mushroom instead of collecting it?

@EU_Commission don’t they already replace/repair joycons for that issue for free or am I mistaken?

@EU_Commission problem is thar #Switch #controllers are designed to be #unrepairable.

Don't believe me? Ask @fuchsiii or amyone who ever opened them.

They are purposefully designed to be unrepairable!!!

@EU_Commission Two switch controllers here waiting for Nintendo then.

You might want to start with Sony already - two out of four PS5 controllers also suffer from joystick drift :)

@EU_Commission I hope this "Right to repair" is here to stay. All brands maximize their planned obsolescence, but none better than Apple.

@EU_Commission

I'm in the US and I've sent back my family's Joy Cons at least 4 times and never get charged and they pay shipping both ways.
