adjl 12/21/17 11:23:47 AM #14:	TheOrangeMisfit posted... wtf is the justification for a $70 controller? It is awfully expensive, but at the same time, I didn't have to spend a cent on controllers for the WiiU, so I'm a little more open to spending more than usual for Switch controllers. I still haven't, since that's still a lot of money, but recognizing how much I save on WiiU controllers does soften the blow a bit. --- This is my signature.
