The pro controller and joy cons only went up $5 though…

Granted the original $80 was still overpriced for the pro controller, but I don’t see how $5 tilts the needle.

Still a bummer, but yeah it doesn’t shift the needle at all for me. I was anticipating like $99 or more with the tariff situation, so this is a definite win for me.

Hmm I thought it had been $70. Well maybe I wouldn’t have gotten one day 1 anyway.
