PS4 controllers sell for a little less than what a brand new game costs. The battery life you speak of is indeed pretty bad for the DS4, and has always been. No denying it. That being said, Sony isn't selling a basic plastic dongle for a premium to allow you to charge your controller while playing. You can use any regular android phone charger, and of course, it came packed in with the PS4. With the Switch, you have to attach the Joy-Con to the Switch to charge them, meaning you can play on the TV while doing so. 

So now you're just changing the subject because you were wrong? Ok, I think we're done here. Point is, the Pro controller is fairly priced. Other accessories, not. Would I prefer a 60$ price? Sure. But it's only around 15$ more than a white ps4 controller. 

I'm not changing subject. The subject is how Nintendo is overpricing everything related to Switch. You think the Pro Controller is godly and has incredible tech that justify its cost. I don't agree. After a few exchanges with you, it's obvious that no amount of argumentation will make you see otherwise. Fact remains: The Pro Controller is overpriced by industry standard. That's what I said, and there's no denying that. Now, if you think the Pro Controller has better everything than anything else on the market, good for you. We both don't know how much the components included cost, how much the entire controllers cost to manufacture, etc. My stand remains that it is expensive for a controller, and it's only one of the many peripherals that's priced quite high made for a system that is supposed to help Nintendo get back on track. With prices like that, Nintendo is already positioning itself for an uphill battle.

And "only 15$ more than a white controller"? That's "only" a third of the price.

But you know what they say: let's just agree to disagree.
