Gamers buy controllers all the time not just because its purple. With over 100m PS4s sold in the world, that is alot of customers. When controllers break or with the DS4 Battery being rendered useless and no way of changing it can lead to easy sales etc. Controllers sell for dozens of reasons andi would highly doute the DS4 is selling so well because of its analog stick placements. 

There is a reason companies flock to make accessories for a top selling product, most accessories dont even have to be good yet can achieve amazing sales results. Look at the Wii or the Kinect for the 360.
