    Nobody should be using potentiometer joysticks anymore. That’s just ridiculous. Optical joysticks have been around since the mid 90’s. Even my ancient SideWinder Force Feedback Pro is a huge improvement over anything with a potentiometer. It still works and doesn’t have any drift issues. Hall effect joysticks are great too.

        Exactly. I’m shocked that people are buying the 80-$90 game bullshit. But, brand recognition.

      I think there is a company that made hall effect joycon sticks for the switch 1, but they came out fairly late in the life cycle.

      Found them. I know it’s an Amazon link, but i don’t know if they sell them anywhere else. Maybe they’ll try their hands at a switch 2 version.
