The joycons are cheaper than the move and the tech is better.
the pro controller is 10 bucks more expensive than the xbox one controller, but the pro controller has hd rumble, motion control and is rechargeable so yeah, the price is not bad if you use common sense (something that most people lack

The DualShock 4 has motion controls and is rechargeable. The DS4 also packs analog triggers (Pro Controller has digital ones), a touchpad, speakers, an audio jack and a light for better motion tracking. The only advantage of the Pro is the HD Rumble, so yes, it's a weird price.

The Joycons are just expensive, 80 bucks a pair is a steal. The Move is also freaking overpriced, but it isn't necessary on the PS4, PSVR works well with the DS4. Sony didn't even upgraded it to use micro USB, it is almost like they wanted us to know it's the same thing since 2011.

I didn't even know the pro controller had digital triggers are you sure? Seems another massive fail on Nintendo's part. Hated the lack of analogue triggers on the gamepad made racing games feel wrong as well as other genres of games. One of the great benefits of analogue triggers is to combine it with vibration feedback so you get recoil when you fire a gun or even clutch bite when you are changing gears in a car. So really the hd feedback of the Switch is actually quite basic if its only linked to digital buttons. So for all the talk of improved feedback its actually in real terms not that good.

Another thing to strike off the list of what's good about the Switch. It goes from bad to worse.

Also pro controller is £65 in the UK, dualshock 4 is about £40 with some discounted to as low as £30 so certainly not price competitive in the UK.
