Nintendo Switch Joy-Con controllers (Neon Blue/Red) drop down to $71 shipped at Amazon

(Update 2/5 12:45pm):

• Newegg Flash has the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller on sale for $59.99 shipped (Reg. $70, $64 at Amazon).
• Newegg Flash also the Grey Joy-Con on sale for $69.99 shipped (Reg. up to $80).

Amazon is currently offering the Nintendo Joy-Con (L/R) (Neon Blue/Red) for $70.69 shipped. That’s about 12% under the regular $80 price tag, within cents of the recent (and much less desirable) Rakuten listings and the best we can find. Only during the Black Friday holiday season have seen Joy-Con go for less on Amazon. Essentially the same controllers bundled with best-selling Switch, ratings are about as good as it gets.

Nintendo Joy-Con:

• Introducing Joy-Con, controllers that make new kinds of gaming possible, for use with Nintendo Switch.
• The versatile Joy-Con offer multiple surprising new ways for players to have fun.
• Two Joy-Con can be used independently in each hand, or together as one game controller when attached to the Joy-Con grip.
• They can also attach to the main console for use in handheld mode, or be shared with friends to enjoy two-player action in supported games.
• Each Joy-Con has a full set of buttons and can act as a standalone controller, and each includes an accelerometer and gyro-sensor, making independent left and right motion control possible.
