Competitiveness
At the beginning i was a little skeptical about the controller but now i honestly prefer it more than the official nintendo controller.

The problem, however, is most people prefer button assignments to be xbox based.
For a lot of games this isn't too big a deal as you can change controls in their settings, but there are games where this isn't supported.
