GuliKit has released a new joystick for the Switch 2's Joy-Con 2 controller. The product aims to address the stick drift issue that has affected many controllers.
Contactless electromagnetic sensing prevents drift
The TMR Joystick for Joy-Con 2 uses Tunneling Magnetoresistance electromagnetic sensing technology. This contactless design eliminates physical wear, so there is no possibility of stick drift. The company claims it provides smoother and more precise control. Installation requires no soldering.
The joystick is priced at 19.99 USD (about $19.99) for a pair in the US, 19.99 EUR (about $23.35) in Europe, and 16.99 GBP (about $22.86) in the UK. It is available now on Amazon in the US, UK, Germany, and the Netherlands. It is also sold on iFixit for $24.99.
The TMR Joystick is designed specifically for the Joy-Con 2, which is the controller for the upcoming Switch 2. GuliKit is known for producing replacement joysticks that aim to solve drift problems. The company has not confirmed any additional regions or retailers.
