So I hear with the new Mario Party, you NEED to use Joycons for it. That's all fine and dandy before you realize, this is a 4-player game. The Switch only comes with 2 of these. I have a pro controller. That cost $70. 2 Joycons costs $80. Wtf Nintendo. How's someone supposed to play these games with friends. Shit costs way too much.

The pro controller and the joycons cost so much because of the HD rumble, wireless, nfc connection for amiibos, and motion controls. At first I thought it was basically a wireless controller and thought it was insane, but those cord controllers actually don't come with any of those features. It's just a normal controller, no rumble, no nfc connection nor motion controls. Hence why they're like 20 bucks.

I can see why they're 70 dollars but I'd never pay that much, maybe 40-50 is more reasonable for me. Joycons being 70 or 80 or whatever is MUCH more understandable and I'd pay that much for them, but...it doesn't matter since most people I know own a switch and can bring their own joycons.
