Animal Crossing: New Horizons arrives on the Switch next month and to promote this upcoming release, Nintendo is going all out with plenty of merchandise and even a themed Nintendo Switch.
As you might have already heard, the UK version of this system will include a digital code for the game, but if you live in North America you'll have to fork out for a copy. With this in mind, Nintendo Minute has uploaded an unboxing video of the US model. Take a look below:
If you really want this bundle but can't justify buying a brand new Switch, there is one other way to get hold of the themed dock and Joy-Con. Provided you live in Japan, you'll be able to purchase both of these items separately. You can even buy the box, if you really want.
Did you pre-order this Switch? How about the game? Leave a comment below.

poor guy on the video pretending excitement for the unboxing
of animal crossing bundle
Well, this video answers my question about whether or not the Joy-Con grip is themed. I wasn't expecting it to be (because surely they would have shown it off), but it would have been a nice touch when it comes to these sorts of bundles, even if it's something simple like an ensign or a silhouette; anything, really.
@nintendophilia : "Poor guy"? He's getting paid to feign excitement.
Really liking the color scheme of the bundle. I'll be getting the joycons and the carrying case. As much as I'll like to get the dock too, I doubt I'll be able to find the bundle here :<
It looks great overall, especially the joy cons and of course that dock. I do feel that the joy con grip is a huge missed opportunity to mirror the design and colour of the dock. Everything else looks so good, even the joy con straps but that dock is the star of the show
You gotta sleep every new console.
It smells like awesome.
Seeing it all absolutely has me wishing they had a black dock version with the same embossed images as the back of the switch body, especially as the grip is black too. I just can’t help feeling the white dock makes it all look a little cheap.
@nintendophilia It isn't the first time he's been this excited about an unboxing. I get the sense he's genuine
@UmbreonsPapa I think he's genuine too.
I hope Nintendo sell the dock and joycons separately as I don't need another Switch console. Would be nice if they sold the docks in different colours besides black.
@nintendophilia yes you can see how fake their reactions are, are they paid by Nintendo? They look a little nervous to make sure they react correctly!
of course the NA one doesn't come with the game because Japan hates us
I hate to break it to the lovely people of Europe and the UK, but you’ll be “forking out” for the game as well. It doesn’t come free with the console in those regions. It’s included with it, but you pay extra for it. Finally, some justice for North Americans!
@Mr_Persona I'm honestly not upset about that, it let's us choose whether we get it digitally or physically without needing to sell off the code if we choose physical... and some of us may have our accounts set up in such that we pay less sales tax on our purchases than we would in store...
My opinion on this is that it smells like Tom Nook.
