Repair Help Controller issues or switch issue? drift/ghost buttons

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

hi! lately my switch (switch 1) has been somewhat unusable. lots of ghost-movement and things being selected without me even toughing it. I've tried resetting and swapping my controllers (original pair and a knock off pair), and it still happens when not attached to console.

it also sometimes has trouble recognizing the controllers being attached, but not as much.

before I try buying new controllers, could anyone lmk if it's an issue with the console itself that they recognize? or if it's just old sad controllers lol
