dude on the stream dropped it and said the blue one came off, but when they looked into it more, both come off just as easilly, without the button pressed.

it's poor design, pure and simple.

Oh you.

Not only they admited that their console felt into concrete floor before realizing that the Joycons could slide without pressing the button, which suggests that could have been damaged on the fall since nobody else seems to be reporting this, but also they are far from just sliding randomly and unexpectedly:



Good work with your hyperboles, even in neogaf people is laughing at this

He specifically says the left one came off when he dropped it, then when showing the difference with the two, realizes the right one comes off easily too, all of this after a Nintendo rep told them it was built to take a beating.

however you spin it, a latched mechanism should not be able to be defeated by a small amount of force, and it shows that over time with continued use the problem would only get worse as the plastic slide rails wear down.

you can wave your hand and dismiss it all you want, but that's going to be a genuine issue within the first 6 months of release for a lot of people.
