@noiob extra hardware cost that's not usually put to use by developers unless they're stuck on the platform

@kyra I mean, all their controllers have motion sensors and NFC now, and analog triggers are pretty much mandatory for simulation racing games

@noiob large mechanical parts stay consistent in price, NFC and motion controls have been plummeting. you can buy ICs like that for pennies on the kilo

@noiob also the switch joy-cons are already pretty savagely miniaturised . A mechanical feature like that is either going to increase size or kick other features off the device

@noiob on top of that nintendo seems to be going for developer accessibility this time around, and muddying the spec by having all these different controllers with slightly different inputs would mess with that
