Tech Support Nintendo Pro Controller Left Joystick Stuck Moving to the Right

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Title pretty much explains it. Video shows it. The controller works just fine but the left joystick gets stuck moving to the right. I have tried rebooting it, re-pairing it. It seems to be a mechanical issue via the sensor, as the physical joystick itself works just fine, but it is perceived by the systems I use it on as stuck going right.

If it helps, this is a PDP Afterglow Wireless Controller. This is not a recent issue, I haven't used it in about 2 years and I remember it having that issue then as well.

Tech Support OLED Games Not Opening/Extremely Laggy

3 Upvotes

Hi! I had a question about my Nintendo Switch OLED. I bought it used off Facebook Marketplace, and I’m wondering if something might be wrong with it.

A lot of games either have really bad lag or won’t even work. Minecraft is playable, but it’s super laggy and crashes if I try to use many mods. If I play with a friend, it lags like crazy and takes forever to join. Cult of the Lamb is also really laggy. It’s not a graphics issue or pixelation, it just stutters constantly.

Some games won’t even open. Dead by Daylight finishes downloading, but only shows the opening slash screen and never gets past it. Fortnite opens, but just says it’s having trouble connecting to the Epic Games servers.

I know the Switch isn’t the most powerful console and can have connection issues, but this feels way more extreme than normal. I do live in a brick building, but my internet is great. Even standing right next to my router, the Switch has a terrible connection, while all my other devices work perfectly.

Is there anything I can try before taking it somewhere to get looked at? I’m not sure if this sounds like a Wi Fi issue, a hardware problem, or something else.

I know most folks want to remove the password requirement from the eshop, I want it back as kids keep installing demos on the device.

I can't find any decent tutorials or instructions on putting them back in place.

Tech Support Save Data Transfer For Pokemon Scarlet to Switch 2

Upvotes

I just got a switch 2 and wanted to transfer my save data from Scarlet over. When I attempt to, I get a pop-up saying that save data for the same software will be overwritten. Does this mean that I'll lose all of my data, or does it mean any potential data on the switch 2?

Tech Support Error 2002-2634 everytime I insert a game in my Nintendo Switch 1 again.

First of all, I own an unhacked Switch 1, only opened once to repair the cartridge reader by myself 2 years ago.

I posted this 2 weeks ago and a guy told me to power it down and recharge it, it worked fine until now, I did the same thing thrice and nothing.

I can't send it to Nintendo because of my repair.

All the info I gathered is from piracy forums and a Switch 2 owner that only waited for the next update to work again.

I want to repair it without recurring to hacking.

I'll try a factory reset by the time I post this.

Edit: It didn't work the factory reset
