It wasn't pricey by itself but would make the wiimote more costly at launch, making it a risk. If it retailed for $20 at a profit, you can bet it costed less than even an old GC controller.

 

If it was pricey enough that they had to wait 3 years from 2006 for it to become cheaper then it's absolutely certain it cost more then a GC controller which would have been cheap as chips years before that.

I'm sorry, was that supposed to look like logic? with the regular motion controls the original wiimote had, it costed X. adding wii motion plus at that time would be an unecessary risk since they didn't know how successfull the system would be and wanted as much profits as possible.
