A patent filed by Nintendo suggests that they’re working on Hall Effect style joysticks for the Switch 2 that would eliminate stick drift almost entirely.

The sensors on the N64 are basically the same kind you'd find in a mouse wheel. They work fine.

The crap part is the physical construction. There's a lot of parts that wear down with use and cause the joystick to become loose due to the plastics wearing away.
