No, the Nintendo Wii controllers are expensive. 60.00$ expensiveermacnessYeah, they are expensive too, you can't just buy the Wiimote w/o a nunchuk, it's almost pointless.
ermm 360 controllers ain't much better 59.99? WTF?.KrazyKev26
Wireless 360 Controllers MSRP is $49.99.
Yeah, kinda ridiculous. It better include a USB cable for charging it for that extra $5 they're charging...BioShockOwnz
I could be wrong, but maybe they're charging the extra 5 bucks because it has rumble?
and ppl thought that that the 360's 39.99 controllers were expensive, wow, yeah! but wait for damage control like "but it has vubraation and six axis!" lol but the cost to make controllers is like nothing! way to try and make money sony! lolTitus_WoWplayerbut in the long run, the 360 controller will be more expensive than the DS3 because when you do spend that 54.99 for a DS3, that's it, but with a 360 controller, you have to worry about batteries or a 25.00$ charge cable.
p.s. and the funny thing is that the DS3 can take ANY A-B usb connector to plug it in your ps3/cpu while you play, the 360 have to have the m$ charge cable in order to charge the batteries. It sucks that m$ didn't make their console universal accessory friendly

Oh, smooth. It's still a ripoff.

not to anyone who doesn't have more than 1 controller. The DS3 have a 10 year lifetime (taken from the past presentation of the six axis) lithium battery (meaning no batteries need to be bought or changed) and it does have six axis (which might not count for much, but it still is a feature that the 360 controllers doesn't have) and is only 5 bucks more. With the price of the DS3 announced, the 360 controllers are the real controllers that looks to be more of a rip-off[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"][QUOTE="ermacness"]but in the long run, the 360 controller will be more expensive than the DS3 because when you do spend that 54.99 for a DS3, that's it, but with a 360 controller, you have to worry about batteries or a 25.00$ charge cable.[QUOTE="Titus_WoWplayer"]and ppl thought that that the 360's 39.99 controllers were expensive, wow, yeah! but wait for damage control like "but it has vubraation and six axis!" lol but the cost to make controllers is like nothing! way to try and make money sony! lolermacness

Do you honestly believe it costs that much to produce ANY of those controllers?
all of the damned accessiores are getting ridiculous if you ask me.PalaxAgreed. I dont even want rumble, i didnt notice it was gone the first day i got my ps3 and never even thought about needing it back. But whatever if i ever have some spare change ill get it but its not a first day bu.
They are all ripoffs...
PS3 $55..sure it has a rechargeable battery..but it is almost the cost of a game..
Wii $60 for Wiimote and nunchuck and YOU HAVE TO BUY BATTERIES!!!!
360 $50 and you have TO BUY MORE BATTERIES!!!
What the hell happened to $24.99 and $29.99....

A wireless Xbox 360 controller is $49.99.Reading Comprehension FTW!!!!!!!!!! Now add that 49.99 to 24.99 and if that total is higher (much higher) than 54.99, come back here and tell me which one is the rip-offwell, either we settle with these, or go get the 3rd party ones. I know that the 3rd parties will be much cheaper, but will also be more unreliableThey are all ripoffs...

Nintendo's is a rip off as well. It's really cheap for them to make...Forza_2
Yea, most companies to what they do to *gasp* make money. Do you really think it costs $50-$60 to make the controller? The best part is, they could charge as much as they wanted and people would still buy them.
