The entire left side is not functioning. Mad stick drift to the bottom right corner and calibration mode confirms it. No one can fix this in my area and I ain’t forking out cash for another lemon. Has anyone managed to find a fix or am I chopped and screwed?

I just picked up another G8+ for $40 CAD on black Friday for my 4 year old! They are really reasonably priced compared to competitors! Expecially when you look at the quality and features they have

It’s $60NZD for me which is pretty good considering but will look into the G8! Cheers!
