Nintendo announced a special edition Nintendo Switch for Pokémon Scarlet andVioleton Wednesday. The console will be the Nintendo Switch OLED model with a red and purple design celebrating these new Pokémon games. It will be available to purchase on Nov. 4, just a few weeks ahead of launch date for Pokémon Scarlet andViolet on Nov. 18.
The design looks super gaudy, but super good. It features purple and red Joy-Cons, each with an insignia of their corresponding game. The back of the console has a design that looks like a bunch of Pokémon themedstickers have been layered over each other, sort of like a school notebook. And the dock features the two legendary Pokémon within the game: Koraidon and Miraidon.
The Nintendo Switch – OLED Model: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Edition system, as Nintendo calls it, will be available from select stores and will cost $359.99. That’s $10 more than the standard Nintendo Switch OLED Model, but the same price as the recently launched Splatoon 3 Switch hardware. (Oh, and the Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Edition Switch does not include a copy of either game.)
