I have relatively large hands so it can be difficult for me to use the Switch controllers, especially when they are detached from the console when I am with my family Mario Cart games. I bought this because it feels more like the controller I was used to as a kid and I like the hand feel compared to the tiny Switch controller. This is an internal battery, not the other battery powered ones. The sticks are solid and the keys click and bounce well. Overall I like this controller and will keep it for myself.
