#nintendo switch special edition

Nintendo on Wednesday has announced the first special edition in a while for the Switch OLED model—the OLED Model Splatoon 3 Edition and will be available on August 26. Most noticeably, the yellow splatter on the Nintendo Switch dock makes its graffiti-like design pop out. The Switch OLED Splatoon 3 Edition includes controllers having purple-blue gradient on the left Joy-Con and yellow-green gradient on the right with white underbellies, of course with the doodle-y Splatoon art. Nintendo is making strategic moves to ensure the successful domestic launch of its highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2. The original Nintendo Switch enjoyed remarkable popularity in Japan, and it’s clear that Nintendo wants to replicate—and even surpass—that success with its successor. However, Nintendo is bumping this margin up to 5% for the Switch 2. Additionally, Nintendo is introducing a special Japan-exclusive model of the Switch 2 at a lower price point. Nintendo’s approach with the original Switch was incredibly successful, creating an expansive and diverse audience for its software titles.
