After the announcement about the Nintendo Switch console, there had been a lot of apprehensions about the Nintendo Switch Price. While it is agreeable that the Nintendo Switch Console costs $300 in line with its competitors such as the PlayStation4 and the Xbox One, the cost of the add-ons to the Nintendo Switch turned out to be a spoil-sport.
$30 for Joy-Con Charge Grip
For instance, the Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons can be charged when slid into the Switch screen but not while on the grip controller. This calls for an additional $30 charging grip so that players don't have to slide the console into the switch screen every time they want to charge it, as reported by Forbes.
$70 for Pro-Controller
Also, the pro-controller that looks similar to the traditional controller is not included in the box. This costs an added $70 to the Nintendo Switch Price. Gamers wonder if the pro-controller is worth the money when compared to the superior controllers like DualShock and Xbox controller in the market.
Extra Joy-Cons/Dock Equals Extra Price
Adding on, if players want an extra pair of Joy-Cons, they have to spend another $80 or $50 for any one of the two. If customers wish to buy another switch dock for another TV, instead of moving the one they already have from room to room, they have to pay $90. Furthermore, the Switch does not come with the usual must-have games. Players will have to buy the games and on top of that Nintendo is introducing paid online pass for its games which will further add the Nintendo Switch Price, as reported by PC advisor.
Switch Accessories Cost More Than The Switch?
Also, as the Switch console can hold only 32 GB of games, it is important to have an external storage facility through a MicroSD card which is going to cost another $40 to $100. The Nintendo Switch price is still worse for UK buyers with the 1:1 pricing. They have to shell out the same numbers in Euros (£) which will make it more pricey. It looks like players have to shell out a couple of $100 bills to just accessorize the Nintendo Switch Console, which is certainly not good news.
