Well considering what a piece of technology the wii-mote is, that's pretty cheap. BUT I im sure there will be knockoff controllers that will be cheaper. Lets hope becuase I think its expensive too even if it is a good price :)

When a game console comes out, not only the controllers, but the games, the console, memory cards, and what not, always cost an arm and a leg. The 360's controllers are $40, but as it ages the prices are dropping -- including its games which originally started at $60. Some are being released cheaper, or their price is depriciating and they become cheaper. Either way, they'll get cheaper...either through the free market or thrid parties making cheap plastic wii motes.

...however, four motes equal one wii....hahaha.....Nintendo can suck it!

My friends don't want the wii and could care less for the wii. Guess my boat is sunk? Yeah well, suppose I could always invest in the PS3, which will undoutely destroy the Wii and the 360, just liek Sony has done in the past. Yeah...suck on that $60 controllers.

Oh I'll guarantee the prices for them will go down :-) Oh and the way sony's going with their delays and under 400 thousand console for a US launch, I dont think their going to be destroying anything with that price!

They are, but it's Sony that will be destroyed! :D

It is a fact that the prices are high. Another fact is they SHOULD go down!

Wow this is super old, but really dumb.

The wireless 360 controller is $50, and its exactly the same as the original xbox controller, this is ridiculously new technology.

PS3 games have been announced as being priced at "no less than $60, and definitely not above $100." !!!!!!! good one sony.

You think that super sweet sixaxis is going to be $20? Good luck. At least $50, not surprised with $60.
