Nah, the price of accessories is just inflated. This is pretty common with game consoles; there's a larger profit margin on accessories than on the games or console itself usually.

Don't get me wrong, the accessories are priced ridiculously, especially that dock. As far as I know, that dock is just a big hunk of plastic with HDMI and charging ports. It probably costs them $5 to manufacture. If it at least acted as a Roku or something and handled streaming services while the Switch was away, maybe that would be alright, but right now it's pretty useless. Which is a shame, cuz I would have liked to put docks in every room of my house, but at $90 there's no fucking way. Lost opportunity for Nintendo to sell a shit load of those to people like me.
