They should have dumped HD Rumble. Unnecessary expense.

I really can't see the dock costing more than $10.
Also, is this saying they don't make a profit for Joycons sold separately? Cause that would be nonsense.

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Either Nintendo still doesn't know how to efficiently design hardware or that estimated cost is poppycock.
