Walmart Has A Pink Joy-Con Bundle Prepped For Princess Peach: Showtime's Release

thegamer.com:

Every now and again, a day comes along when two big games release on the same day, often leaving people with a tough decision to make and a trail of memes in their wake. Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing did it in 2020, and Mario Wonder and Spider-Man 2 did it last October. On March 22, that trend gets cranked up a notch as three big games will be released on the same day. Princess Peach: Showtime, Dragon's Dogma 2, and Rise of the Ronin, and one of them comes bundled with scrunchies and pastel pink Joy-Con.

Perhaps in an attempt to convince more people that they should spend this weekend as a princess rather than a samurai, Walmart has prepared a special Showtime bundle. One that not only gets you a copy of Showtime but also the scrunchies the retailer is giving away with the game's pre-orders and Nintendo's new pastel pink Joy-Con. The page for the bundle is already live, but you likely won't be able to order it until release day.

Since the page is live, we know how much the bundle is going to cost. Coming to $139.88 when all three items are bundled together, it technically won't cost you any less than it would to buy the game and Joy-Con separately.

Walmart's Princess Peach: Showtime bundle includes a copy of the game, the Switch's pastel pink Joy-Con, and some Princess Peach scrunchies.

While they might not be the most exciting limited edition Joy-Con released during the Switch's run, they might mark a significant milestone for the Switch. With Nintendo almost certainly preparing for the reveal of its next console, rumored to be launching in early 2025, Showtime might be the last Switch game that gets themed hardware. Nintendo's two big first-party games still to come on the Switch are a remake and a remaster and probably won't be getting
