...why do you need a special controller for Cloud gaming?

If it's like the Stadia controller, stuff like user authentication is done by the controller's embedded system.

If it's like the Stadia controller, it'll have a kickass D-pad but shitty battery life, featuring a battery that CAN'T be replaced.

featuring a battery that CAN’T be replaced.
