I am not sure about the exposed connector on the side of the system that inserts into the Joycon. I could see a kid jamming the controller onto the system at a bad angle and breaking it.

As soon as I saw that I thought "there's this generation's joycon deadzone"

More like this generations Nintendo DS hinge crack.

The joycon drift can happen regardless of how well you treat the analog sticks

I’m very curious what they’ve done to prevent people accidentally forcefully removing it during gameplay. The sliding lock was annoying at first, but if you’ve ever gripped the controller hard at a pivotal moment it’s probably good that it didn’t rip away or even stress the parts.

The leaks showed what looked like a release button like the original joycons.

I had exactly the same thought.

This is so big of a design flaw, I wonder if it's not accepted as a way to sell more...
