Joy-Con drift has been an ongoing topic for Nintendo for a number of years now. Some controllers break down over time, causing the joysticks to register input even if you’re not physically moving them at all. These problems have resulted in a lot of frustration and even lawsuits.

Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser again spoke about Joy-Con drift as part of an interview published by The Verge this week. Speaking with the site, he said:

Rockstar Games worked with Grove Street Games on the remasters. They have new graphics, some updated gameplay, and even some Switch features like touch screen usage and gyro aiming.

For those that have picked up Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, what are your impressions thus far? Which one of the games is your favorite? Let us know in the comments below.

As big fan of those games, I decided to share some of my thoughts about future possibilities for 3D Mario. There are some crazy ideas here because I started to have a lot of fun producing this video, but I’m also curious to see you guys think about the topic as well.
