A small issue has seemingly come to light regarding the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller thumbsticks, causing them to be sticky, though it looks like there’s a simple fix.
Today’s news is circulating after a Japanese content creator found small flakes on the left analogue stick after around 350 hours of use. Also, the stick was a bit sticky around the circumference. After opening the controller, it was discovered that the stick cap’s umbrella grinds on the base ring. That’s what’s ultimately causing it to flake.
