This trend needs to end

[Leynos]

Nintendo Joycons use stock Chinese parts that are cheap. PS5 controllers have had serious drift issues. Elite Controller version 1 had drift issues. What needs to happen is every console maker follows SEGA Saturn and SEGA Dreamcast examples and just uses Hall Effect (neither have drift issues even used controllers to this day). SEGA solved it in 1995. Even Sony's $200 controller doesn't use Hall Effect but my $70 8bitdo Ultimate Controller for Switch does. It's time Hall Effect is standard to prevent drift entirely but all 3 cheap out on parts.
