Nowadays there are many 3rd party options that are better than any official offerings. Especially considering no 1st party has made the switch to hall effect joysticks.
I picked up this one about 6 mo ago and it's been fantastic. My favorite controller by far. I'm waiting for them to make joycons and they'll be an immediate buy.
And I'd imagine they'll be willing to go through licensing.
Nah they'll most likely find a work around, can't imagine the check being hard to clear unless they are planning to add hardware identifiers and make all old official controllers obsolete.
