The Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Drift is a technical issue within the primary controllers of the Nintendo Switch, the Joy-Con controllers. It causes the joysticks to push the buttons under the stick without being pushed around by the player. Because it is used to control selections and the player character, it will cause fast scrolling in menus and unintentional movement in the player character/camera.

Nintendo has gotten into many lawsuits on this topic, and they addressed it in on July 2019. Since then, they offer free repair, even if they are out of warranty.

Causes
It's unclear what causes Joy-con drift, and it will be hard to tell. One theory says that debris and dust enter below the cap of the sticks, and that's what pushes it around. Other have taken apart the controllers and found contacts that were weary. But these are theories, and they may not be right.
