    This.

    Three DS5, all 3 left stick drifted. One left stick pad actually degraded-melty style too.

    Anyway yay for Best Buy extended plan, worth the $ for no frills exchanges.

    Bought my purple one on sale last August, it drifted to death second week of July.

    I just exchanged up to the Edge now… Here’s hoping I don’t have to use my plan again >.>

      I’d just buy a new one and return the old one with the new one’s receipt (and packaging, if necessary). Best Buy shouldn’t be profiting off of defective hardware.

      I’ve been meaning to do that with my drifty boi but with Walmart, I just barely ever touch the ps5 these days so it’s hard to work up the motivation
