Nice... Still not getting the game tho.

Kind of see what you mean, but it matches closely to the colors on the Switch dock, so I'm fine with it. Maybe they figure making it too brown would be distracting?


What do you mean? Doesn't seem like enough room.
If they can fit a few Pokémon on a gameboy, they can fit one on each joycon.

Ugly as hell, they design beutyful Wii motes, but this? I do not really like my Wii U gamepad with Zelda edition... Shit i do not like "limited" edition of consoles like this... It looks bad (for examle N64 Pikachu edition). If will be option same like custom air paint like Vita have (usermade). Even that uglies the price will be sky higher...

I like the color of the joycons and the decal on the dock seems pretty awesome! The color of the straps tho... They look bad... They got the wrong shade of brown (it doesn't combine with the yellow they chose, imo)

Because ninty wants money ASAP, we get special bundles like this one. If ninty wanted money in a long run, they would give us way of choosing any color for any part.
Why there are so many 3rd parties with any color you want for your joy-cons, yet ninty can do only special bundles?

the dock looks like decals from aliexpress (and probably will be litterally now)

Don't like the colour scheme
I get it when you see it with the dock but in a vacuum people won't get it.
Which makes it look cheesy if not cheap. i know they Cannot really use complementary colors because there's only so much you can do about that given evee and Pikachu's colors.
honestly i probably bare minimum would have used the specaled pokemon"gold" cartridge plastic for evee just to make it more differnt but that wouldnt make it look better

I also think it's kind of half assed, you know the Chinese manufacturers are going to make these color shells now.
They could've done something cool like pokeball colored buttons or something less easily cloneable

about the only part i like is the back cover of switch with silouetes but i also assume that may be kocked off.
so honestly id rather pay a 10th of the price and get knockoffs when they become available rather then encourage this ugly design

Simple and effective. Yet Nintendo still choose to just use colours. Im hoping that if nintendo announces animal crossing they will also announce a limated edition switch. Unfortunantly if its just a simple coloir change i wouldnt buy it. I dknt see why there cant be patterns on the Joy cons? The green and pink splatoon ones and red mario ones would have been amazing.
