The stick hits all the angles.
Joycons are “free” since they come with your Switch and are covered under the same warranty as your Switch.
Four separate directional buttons, which makes it easy to not ghost inputs.
¶ Negative Sentiment
The stick is short, the buttons are small and close together, and there's not much to wrap your hands around.
The grip is not ergonomic at all.
Stick drift is a common issue.
