Remove the HD rumble, makeing the joy-cons cheaper, longer lasting, and lighter to carry.

Then pass that cost saveing onto the Switch package.

Even if its just like a 20$ saved type of thing, that would be worth it.

The cost of the HD rumble is mostly in the form of the R&D that went into them. Magically removing them would not make the console any cheaper unless they don't want to recoup their costs of that R&D

To many people just take each item in a console at face value and be like "oh this costs roughly this to buy" and add them all up thinking the system should cost this. They never factor in the R&D costs that the company wants to make back.

Also, the Switch does not need to be cheaper. It's a fair price.

That's true. I do not think it's worth saved $ 20 if you eliminate HD rumble. In fact, if Nintendo added the stick c in the joycons or more side buttons (SL2, SR2). I would pay $ 20 more because I love playing split screen with my friends, but I feel it need more buttons like a second joystick or top buttons to control the camera, movements, etc. when we play just with a joycon.
