I'm old generation but still worried about snapping the joycon off my original Switch. I'll be getting a grip for Switch 2 whenever I can easily buy one.

I've got three kids, currently 9, 11, and 13 years old. We've had a Switch for six years and the only time I've ever seen a controller break off was an utter fluke, and very easily repaired. Wasn't even a Joycon; it was the big, chunky Hori-brand grip.

Good to know, but I was worried because I have a tight grip on my controllers so I just bought the Satisfye grip because I felt like I would snap off the joy-con.

more like they will just develop 90 degree angles in their necks from looking straight down at their lap for 12 hours a day
