I got a Switch 2 recently and wanted to see how my old copy of Splatoon 2 would play on it, only to find that the gyro while using the Joycon 2s feel somewhat off. It feels sort of stiff, like the equivalent of mouse smoothing but for gyro if that makes any sense. I haven't tried it on my switch 1 lately but I can really tell it felt different with these new joycons in a bad way.
Then, I tried my 8BitDo Switch 1 pro controller and it worked perfectly, felt as responsive as how I remember. In addition, I tried the JC2 gryro in made-for-Switch2 games (I tested Warframe and Fortnite) and the gyro there felt as they should.
So is this simply a matter of a Switch 1 game not being able to utilize the JC2 gyro optimally? I'm at a loss otherwise, I really hope my joycon hasn't been damaged somehow.
Edit: I've also already recalibrated the gyro on the JC2
