My original came-with-the-system pair has the drift, but luckily it's light

Every once in a while, someone comes up with this kind of a post.
And I realize, maybe I don't actually know English?

I have no clue what most of that means.

yeah and since the joycons/controllers kinda have a separate charging bar, if those controllers run out of battery, you have to charge them. as long as their still connected to your Switch, they'll charge with the rest of the system. however, if you keep the controllers detached from the main system, they will run out of battery. lol

to clarify, the Switch Lite does NOT have detachable controllers. you can sorta see in the image i posted previously that the controllers on either side of the "screen" can detach. but in the Switch Lite, they can't detach, they're like.....one connected piece of plastic system lol. XD

I don't know what this "drift" is but looking it up, it looks like its some kind of problem with the joycon/controllers, where the controllers are just kinda glitchy and press buttons that weren't pressed. thankfully, that's never happened to me lol. what Hart is saying is that if this kind of glitch happens with the Switch Lite, which DOESNT have detachable joycons/controllers, chances are you might have to get your ENTIRE system taken apart just to get the problem fixed, since you can't detach JUST the controllers from the system like you can with the original Switch. and even with the original Switch, if something like this "drift glitch" happens, you can always get new controllers to attach to it lol.

Well, that's starting to make more sense now.

So a joycon is a controller, and a drift is a problem with the system.

And a Switch Light is a variety of game system.

And the came-with-the-system pair that Kitalpha Hart has, is inflicted with this problem, but luckily the problem is not severe (light as in not severe, not as in the Switch Light).

Okay, mostly translated now.

Thanks!

Yeah I think that’s basically what’s translated? Lol. Unless what Hart has IS a Switch Lite (without the detachable controllers) and it has this “drift glitch” but the glitch is light enough to still be able to play it. Lol

I have an original Switch

So then I was right originally lol.

In the end we didn't have a caravan in July.
Which is great because I had a lot less time than I thought.

I'm not buying another switch until they make one that can play the new Diablo game. :)

Lol we might still get it. There’s still one day left! XD

I hear a lot of good things about the newer system. It'll probably have the processing power to play the new diablo game, I'm just in pain about it because the (not present) father of my daughter spends a load of money on video games and I'm over here just struggling to come up with tuition to finish my degree.
