MODERATORS
The controller sends nput direct to the server via WiFi, rather than via Bluetooth through the viewing device. Removes some latency, which given how much latency cloud having introduces makes a difference.
But then why is it shaped like a shitty pancake?
To make it more portable would be my guess. Same reason the Switch is flat.
