Gamespot's Tom Caswell mentioned on Monday's Game Mess Mornings show on Giantbomb that this type of lawsuit likely would never get ruled in favor of the plantiff just because of how huge of a can of worms it would open for others in the gaming industry.
Not only would it set a new precedent, it also means everyone else who uses the same controller tech in a Switch controller could potentially face similar lawsuits since that tech is currently an industry standard and has been known going as far back as at least the Xbox One/PS4 era of being defective because of an unfixable flaw in its design.
Think you can still send in JoyCons for Nintendo to repair for free (minus any potential shipping fees) but that wasn't the case initially and only changed after Nintendo caught some really serious heat over charging to fix drift they very likely knew would haunt them this gen.
