There is a growing number of Nintendo Switch users that are increasingly getting frustrated with Nintendo's inaction on different issues they experienced with the hybrid console. The frustrations seem to mount recently when the Japanese gaming console maker announced a series of good news. The first one is the announcement of the new portable version of the hybrid console dubbed as the Nintendo Switch Lite, and the other is a new version of the console with improved battery life arriving in August 2019.
The Nintendo Switch Lite is slated to release on September 20, 2019, and is the portable version of the popular hybrid console. With the same capabilities as the base model less the dock, joy-con, and other accessories, the Lite is one of the best things that happened to Switch, especially for those who prefer portable gaming experience. The latest model of the Nintendo Switch, on the other hand, was announced today and will arrive next month.
The latest news is good news for a lot of Nintendo Switch fans. However, there is one major issue that has been irritating a lot of users, and that is the Joy-Con drift. This issue has been ruining the overall gaming experience of Nintendo Switch users.
With the latest announcements made by the Japanese console maker, these users are not happy with how the company is handling their concern. On Twitter and Reddit, Nintendo Switch users voice out their frustration concerning the matter. The post on the subreddit of Nintendo Switch has gained around 30,000 upvotes in just two days.
Some Nintendo Switch users complained that the $80 Joy-Cons are expected to be sturdy, durable, and functioning properly. Others claim that theirs proved that they were not of better quality and were not close as to how their predecessors were made. The issue on the Joy-Con of the Nintendo Switch has been raised for quite some time now.

Unfortunately, Nintendo did not do anything to resolve the drifting Joy-Con. The frustrations among fans are nothing but normal since their complaints fell on deaf ears. While some of them are happy about the latest announcement from the Japanese gaming console maker, they are also requesting that Nintendo do something to fix their concern.
Other Nintendo Switch users are asking the company about its plan to fix the issue while several others are surprised to know that there are other users sharing the same issue with their Joy-Con.
