Finally! They may have done this in the past for specific cases but now that it's an actual policy in Europe you don't need to worry about sending your joycon in just for them to try to charge you what it is worth to repair it.
Nintendo Life said:This change brings the company's policy in line with various other regions, including North America, Latin America, and France. The new policy also covers the same issues with Switch Lite.
Now if only they could develop small hall effect sticks to kill this problem once and for all.Nintendo UK said:Nintendo takes great pride in creating high quality and durable products and we are continuously making improvements to them. Therefore and until further notice, Nintendo offers to consumers who purchased Nintendo Switch Joy-Con controllers in the European Economic Area (EEA), UK and Switzerland that the repair of a responsiveness syndrome of the analogue stick will be conducted at no charge by Nintendo official repair centres. This applies even if the syndrome is caused by wear and tear and even if the 24-month manufacturer’s warranty provided by Nintendo has expired. For more information please visit dedicated article on Nintendo website: Joy-Con Control Sticks Are Not Responding or Respond Incorrectly (responsiveness syndrome or so-called “drifting”).
