Dualshock retails for $60, but it is much cheaper than that. Console manufacturers make lots of profits in that kind of peripherals. So, the PS3 isn't 60 bucks more expensive 'cause of the Dualshock.
On the other hand, the Gamepad is really expensive to produce.
And I agree, I think adding controlers like gamepad or kinect increase the cost without having a big increase on the experience.
