Yes and no. There isn't a set in stone profit margin that controllers have. They have just been used as an effective means of obtaining profit. At $150 the price is substantially more than a typical controller. Considering that price might place it out of consumer interest profits might be maximized by lowering the profit margin to encourage sales (supply/demand). Though I suppose they don't anticipate sales to occur unless in the case of a replacement. With a $150 price tag it is looking as if the controller is significantly more expensive than a typical controller. Even maintaining the same profit per unit would indicate an almost $100 price on top of a typical controller.
Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(
