I know why the Switch Pro controller is so expensive

i think due to battery life, HD rumble, NFC which PS4 and X1 controllers didn't have. There is a choice to not to buy it if it is expensive. I don't even think that all the ones who are complaining are soon-to-be switch owners.

My switch will be showing up on release day but unless I absolutely hate the joy-cons then I won't be spending $70 on one of these... I have a feeling that I will hate the joy-cons though (I already hate their name).

if you really want the 'standard' controller, getting a pro should be fine.  bought the wii u pro controller together with the console back then.  would happen to Switch for me once I've decided to buy it.  :)
