Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
After many complaints of drifting Joy-Con, Nintendo of America started changing its approach to repairs. Rather than charging for fixes after expired warranty, going forward, all repairs of the controllers will be free. This mainly applied to North America based on what we had initially seen, but it looks like other regions are starting to get involved.
The latest update concerns Latin America. Free Joy-Con repair is now being offered in the region, according to an authorized Nintendo repair shop in Costa Rica. We’ll keep you informed about any other updates to the situation.
