Nintendo is paying tribute to Princess Peach by releasing a collection of Joy-Cons in fitting colors. Princess Peach: Showtime! and a pair of pastel pink Joy-Con controllers will be released on March 22, the business said on X (Twitter) on Tuesday. For a brief while, the duo may be purchased from the Nintendo Store and “select retailers.” The business hasn’t disclosed the price, but it’s probably reasonable to assume that they will cost $80, which is the normal pricing for a Joy-Con pair.
As part of a batch released last summer, Nintendo already sells a pastel pink left Joy-Con along with a pastel yellow right one. Thus, if we are being precise, it looks like half of a controller is the whole original portion of Peach’s long-overdue homage. Inquiring about whether the pastel pink tint in Peach’s set is the same as the one in the pink/yellow combination as it seems to be in the promotional photos below, Engadget contacted Nintendo. If we get an update, we’ll update this article.
Princess Peach: Showtime is the main event, of course, and the themed Joy-Cons are only its undercard. With the ever-present heroine in distress taking heroic center stage in a tale about rescuing a theater (the Hamlet type, not the Barbenheimer kind) from the evil Grape and the Sour Bunch, the pseudo-platformer was revealed at the September Nintendo Direct.
The flying star named Stella, the theater’s protector, has given Peach a ribbon that she may use as a whip-like weapon. Her function could be comparable to that of Prince Florian in Super Mario Wonder and Cappy in Super Mario Odyssey. Peach may also use her dramatic quick-change skills to shift into a detective, ninja, cowboy, patisserie, Kung-Fu artist, and swashbuckler. This allows her to give her mustachioed admirer, McGuffin, in Mario’s stories some amusing power-ups to offset his.
Showtime and Pink Joy-Cons, that is, Princess Peach
The pastel pink Nintendo Joy-Cons will be available alongside Princess Peach: Showtime when it launches on March 22. With the pink Joy-Cons costing up to $20 more than the regular $59.99 price tag for AAA titles, Nintendo sells Princess Peach: Showtime for that amount. Princess Peach will go on a solitary trip in this brand-new action-adventure platformer, taking on several roles to assist her overcome hurdles and more.
Nintendo Switch Attachments
The Nintendo Switch, the well-known gaming system from Nintendo, is most recognized for being a modular device that can be used in a variety of play modes, such as portable, tabletop, or linked to a large display. Nevertheless, some users have found that the renowned Joy-Cons are not limited to the Nintendo Switch; they can also be utilized as controllers for iPhones and iPads.
The Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Cons have a lot of uses and are highly versatile, but stick drift is one major problem that makes them stand out from the others. That being said, there are several methods for maintaining your current Joy-Cons, such as cleaning them every day to prevent dust buildup that can impair their capability.
