I am not even a Nintendo stan but it comes with the avaliblity to charge it using the switch lol

And you can charge them while in portable mode with the USB cable cord.

At first I was like :wtf: that's bs. Now thinking about it though, it's not that big a deal.
Just slip the joycons on the console to charge when I'm not playing.

Does PS4/XB1 come with a play and charge kit?

I don't really see the issue here.
Dualshock 4 comes with a rechargeable battey but Xbox One controller doesn't. The play and charge kit is sold separately.

everytime you charge the switch it kills the batteries half life, so charging controllers via the switch is ridiculous

You should have blasted them about that $90 dock. Ain't nothing but HDMI out and a USB Type C connector in a plastic shell. It probably cost them $15 or so to make.

Hmmm, I have mixed feelings about this. But what I would like to know is, does the extra Joycon you buy come with the charging ability? These damn controllers are 80 bucks, and 50 if you buy only half of the controller. And that bytch can't charge and play? I'm sorry, I'm not feeling it. You can rationalize that all you want, I think it's some ole bullshyt, and while I don't think that the the charger not being with the joycon that comes with the system is THAT big of a deal, I think the OP is correct. Nintendo is tripping. I'm pulling for them this go round, but it will mostly be in spirit. Probably won't be until Black Friday 2018 until I cop one in a $300 bundle.

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
Nintendo is paying dirt cheap to make this console and charging crazy bread. The console shouldn't be 300. No fukkin way. Not for a portable Wii U. The fukkin PS4 Pro is only $100 more than that. And can be had at less than that. And that's the most powerful console on the market right now. To add insult to injury. 32gb of internal storage is abysmal. fukk is they thinking wit that bullshyt. So I gotta buy and extra SD card right off bat after paying 300 bucks for this console that truthfully should cost no more than 200 bucks. 250 was pushing it. Then the pro controller costs more than both Xbox One and PS4 controllers. Lmao. Holy shyt. U gotta pay for online service. Once the fall hits. They said u get free SNES and NES games monthly. But they take them shyts back after the month is up. U can't make this kinda shyt up. Lol.

Didn't expect much from the same brehs who started taking the NEw3ds chargers out the fukking box and sellin' 'em seperate. :troll:
My fukkin' little cousin almost punch me in my damn chest when he ran out of juice on Boxing day.:picard:

Also, ain't these the same fools that giving you "Free" games each month but taking 'em back the following month? I'm good and I gots no problem copping Splatoon 2 in the Christmas of 2020 or some shyt when the price/hype for this shyt wanes.
