Joy-Con Pair Pastel Pink/Pastel Yellow (Nintendo Switch)

Product Information

Though perhaps most reminiscent of the limited edition Animal Crossing Joy-Cons, the new colours are completely brand new and have never been released before. And why aren’t you? Video games don’t always need to be bold, and frantic, and exciting. Sometimes — a lot of the time when you’re playing certain Switch games — they’re calm, and contemplative, and relaxing. Just like this photo of the pastel Joy-Cons.

These will look incredible in your hands while playing something cozy like Animal Crossing or Doom Eternal… you know, the sweetest of games. Games come to life through easy-to-use motion controls and HD rumble—advanced vibration features built into each Joy Con™ controller.Either way, it’s very likely that more will come available and you might just be able to walk into any major retailer and grab your set on June 30th. Depending on the game, you might use a single Joy Con in each hand—or even give the second one to a friend.

I don’t think I have to explain to you how adorable these look. And these are not just for the ladies; boys can like pastel too! As far as specs go, these should be exactly the same as previous Joy-Cons. There’s no new hardware inside to speak of. Nintendo just announced that they are going to be releasing not one, but TWO new pastel colored Joy-Con sets for the Switch. Games come to life through easy-to-use motion controls and HD rumble—advanced vibration features built into each Joy Con™ controller. Depending on the game, you might use a single Joy Con in each hand—or even give the second one to a friend.

The new Nintendo Switch Joy-Con sets will be available in Pastel Purple / Pastel Green and Pastel Pink / Pastel Yellow color combinations.

Editor’s note: These don’t appear to be on the My Nintendo Australia store just yet, but we’ll update you with pricing and availability once they are. — David The only colors that are exclusive to the particular side of the controller are the left side purple and right side orange. Or if that angle doesn’t cut it, you can always just play the “Summer” card like Nintendo is here in the official announcement, which says the controllers will be out on June 30:

Of course, this also does not include the special edition sets, such as the new Zelda OLED Joy-Cons.
