Seems like. Simple task, my needle on the shifter is off buy a full gears, so when I’m drive it’s in N, the dash lights up sometimes except for drive, not a huge deal have gotten the shift down, but at first I was putting it into 2nd instead of D. Anyways is the adjuster under the console? Easy to access? Common issue? It also seems like the shifter is a lil loose will move from gear to gear with little effort instead of locking into place, is this pretty normal?
Shifter needle adjustment?

Perhaps you could remove the shifter console and perform your own investigation

Are you saying that the indicator at the base of the shifter is off, but that the gear indicator lights on the dash are accurate?

Yes
There are sets of bushings and grommets on the ends of the linkage that connects the shift mechanism to the transmission, they wear and/or disintegrate. They are still available from Toyota.
