UPDATE: Nintendo has just announced the launch of its first alternate colorway for the Joy-Con 2 controllers, set to hit stores on February 12. This highly anticipated release coincides with the debut of the new game, Mario Tennis Fever.
The new controllers, featuring a vibrant Light Purple and Light Green color scheme, will retail for $99.99 in the U.S. and £74.99 in the U.K. Fans can pre-order them now directly from Nintendo’s website. This marks an exciting addition to the accessories for the Nintendo Switch 2, as these controllers will be compatible with the latest console.
While the new color variants are visually appealing, they do not come with any significant hardware changes. Nintendo’s announcement confirms they are essentially the same as the original red and blue Joy-Con 2, with no improvements in battery life or additional features like Hall effect sticks.
As anticipation builds for the release, the gaming community is buzzing over these new designs—especially with the added excitement of Mario Tennis Fever launching on the same day. Nintendo has also released a new overview trailer for the game, showcasing its engaging gameplay.
Fans are encouraged to act quickly, as the pre-orders are already live. The sleek colors of the Light Purple and Light Green Joy-Con 2 are expected to appeal to collectors and casual gamers alike. Given the popularity of the Joy-Con series, these new variants could sell out fast.
