Nintendo has just announced the release of their new pastel-colored Switch controllers, adding a fresh and vibrant touch to their popular gaming console.
These eye-catching controllers are available in a range of soft hues, including pastel pink, blue, green, and yellow, offering gamers a stylish and personalized gaming experience. Sadly the wrist straps don’t match the controls and remain black but other than that, these are just as cute as the Animal Crossing pastel controllers.
While no official price was announced, heading over to the Nintendo Store shows that they are priced similarly to the current Joy-Con controllers available. Gamers can anticipate the release of these controllers in the coming months but you can already pre-purchase through the official store.
Some people watch specific movies for its captivating story. Some do because of its roster of actors and some for a movie’s overall look. Although others look past all those and they watch a specific film because of the cars featured in it.
