Prefer or have a choice i think is a bigger question.

i don't deny there are other reasons.

But the NPD for October shows the new purple PS4 DS being the top money maker for accessories. The black DS 4 is the best selling accessory of 2019. DS4 topping accessories list for NPD has been a common occurrence. Asymmetrical controllers for the PS4 exist (of different price ranges too) but that doesn't seem to be deterring DS4 sales (in relation to only PS4 and also the competition). 

Erm selling accessories to a top selling product isnt that hard to achieve. If the PS4 was a hard sell and still sold ton loads of controllers than i agree.
