No clue if this is legitimate or someone’s AI-fueled wishful thinking.

    I agree about the price. I bought couple of JoyCon sets but much later in the lifecycle (and mainly because of drift), and don’t plan to buy another set for Switch 2 until I need it, or just for a change in 2-3 years down the lane (if it keeps working till them). For now, just want them to exist so I can hope for more colours by the time I get around to getting them.

    One thing I like about Switch 2 (compared to PS5) is it can work with third party controllers, got a nice 8bitdo controller with TMR sticks that works with Switch 1, 2, PC and probably mobile too, but haven’t tried that. Only wish it worked with PS5 too, but they don’t allow third party controllers.

    The collector in me really wants the console, but that’s a cost I can’t justify. Would be a slam dunk if I didn’t already have a SW2 though.

    Most of my friend that care about Switch 2 had been waiting for a limited edition before buying it, but finally bit the bullet recently to get one before price increase. They’ll be really annoyed if this is real and coming soon.
