Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
A class-action lawsuit for Switch Joy-Con drift has come to close, and the ruling comes in favor of Nintendo.
We had previously reported on the Sanchez et. al. v. Nintendo of America case about a year ago. Originally, it was ruled that two mothers in the case couldn’t proceed with a class action. However, the case continued, and it was ultimately about whether or not kids could sue. According to Axios, Switch comes with an End User License Agreement “which disallows lawsuits and forces aggrieved parties to go into arbitration, but the parents’ lawyers argued the kids were too young to be bound by it.”
