You are misunderstanding something here.
The PS Move is overpriced. It has very old tech inside of it that is currently inferior to the Wii Motion Plus controller/ The new Wii controllers with Wii Motion Plus built in. I believe those are cheaper as well. It has about 9 hours of battery life.
The Joycons are not. Based on everything presented and seen thus far they are high grade and have a lot of tech in it. I believe 2 cost the same as 2 Wii Motion Plus controllers. Its battery last for 20 hours
HOWEVER, the underlying issue is this:
- The PS Move controller largely optional to buy; I say optional because there are still some games that require its use. if you are buying the console it is not included thus the system overall is cheaper.
- The Joycons are bundled with the system. People are dissatisfied with the overall price of the Switch. Despite being reasonably priced. and instead of merely complaining that the added cost of the Joycons, some will take the extra step to say the Joycons are overpriced, despite it being fairly priced, as a means to cope with their frustration

So far there is only one game in existence that requires the Joycons and that is 1-2-Switch, how does that make them not optional?

You are still misunderstanding though that is entirely my fault;
PS Move controllers are required for certain games. There is a lot of VR that uses it, hence why it is bundled and sometimes needed for games.
The key difference however, it is not automatically bundled with the system. If we look at the Joycons, sure outside of that game it is optional. That is irrelevant however, as you are requied to get the Joycons with system itself. Its not a pick and choose decision.
Me including that line you bolded was simply address some games need it, but ultimately it is inconsequential to the price of purchasing the system itself
