Looks beautiful but i fear the price

Preorders when? I was queued on Nintendo Store but nada.

The Pro Controller would be so much cooler and more interesting and special if it were all green. Still getting it, though! Would love the console, too, but can't justify a second Switch 2. Not in this economy, anyway! 😭

PUT THIS IN MY VEINS!!! Now!!

lol where when can I preorder 😭

Hope we can turn the voice overs off.. idc either way I’m stoked!!!

That looks damn good

Looks a bit better in these renders than the leaked pics a while ago, looking forward to getting more ACTUALLY themed Switch2 consoles (unlike splatoon raiders)

My wallet is begging you to stop, Nintendo! Pre-Orders begin when?!!?

No mention of the Pro Controller's display stand?

Gonna need that pro controller and stand, thanks

It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.

I wonder if this one is the EU revised hardware version?

That green is gorgeous. I can't wait.

Edit: Preorders are a mess already.

Alright, I'll bite and grab the controller!

But how do I get the foil box for the game itself??

Also, one thing the article missed. The controller has a stand exclusive to the Nintendo Store (website) and the New York and San Francisco stores. At least, that's what the US trailer showed.

Depending on the price of the Pro Controller 2 compared to the original, I'll bite (I don't have a Pro 2 yet).

I like it. But I dont know that I like it as much as previous Zelda special edition devices. Will still probably be the version I shoot for.

That thing is gorgeous. I don't need one but boy do I bloody want one.

No Collectors Edition of the game then? Just the special foil version?

The Legend is Real!!!

Got to admit it looks good
But the new Evercade is coming out so I think I will giving it a skip

@farrgazer Yeah, pretty sure the revised version will be the standard. It's a good thing

I haven't killed enough Gold Skulltulas, so I'm stuck with only 99 Rupees in my wallet. At least it's enough to buy the game.

I'd take the JoyCons if they were separate.

That's the way to do a special edition, it looks superb!

Am tempted but I think I'll just go for the pro controller as really I'm hoping they'll give us an oled S2 at some point.

I need this but bet it will sell out within seconds.

The joycons look nice. Too bad they're not selling em separately. Guess I'll have to wait for some 3rd party to make em so I can shell swap my existing ones.

@farrgazer I'm gonna try and get one but I'd hazard a guess its old stock, repackaged so as to use them up; so keeping hopes firmly low.

I don't need a second system and thus don't plan to buy this, but it looks really nice.

The Joycons should be available for purchase separately. Sorry, but I’m not really in the mood to buy the entire system all over again.

I'd absolutely get the Joy-Con if they had the option to buy them separately.

Wonder if this console will be the new version with replacement battery options?

Would buy that one if I didn't already own a launch Switch 2 console!

Lovely, but can't justify the rupee outlay!

Though the joycons are....

Well no, I'm 100% the scalpers have somehow already bought them all lol 😆

I am going to get the Pro Controller and the Ocarina

I won't pony up for the console itself as I'd rather keep my day one Switch 2 (I'm weirdly sentimental like that), but the controller and case has my interest.

The SE console and Pro Controller are both gorgeous! Much better than the leaked images awhile back IMO. While there's likely an upcharge (I REALLY hope supply at least somewhat meets demand), this is exactly what I've been waiting for.

@PersonaTexas Eh, I ran with my standard Switch 1 without needing an OLED, so I doubt I'll want to upgrade to an OLED Switch 2. Maybe it's a hot take to say, but I think the Switch 2's LCD screen is excellent as is.

I really don't like the look of this thing honestly? It's kind of just a really offputting shade of green and the asymmetrical pattern just comes off as messy. The body of the Switch 2 and the dock are okay but I really don't at all like the design they used for the Joycons or especially the Pro Controller.

I prefer the OG one. Special editions are for keeping sealed and selling on ebay in 10 years time

I think that design would put me into a panic.

Looks beautiful, but I'm not the biggest Zelda fan so I'll probably be holding out for a Wind & Waves ltd edition next year...

I want a Switch 2 LITE.

Switch 1 Pro Controller til it dies! Hey Nintendo, how about making the UNACCEPTABLY ATROCIOUS Switch 2 screen and Joy con playable first? Only way I buy more hardware is if you make it better than what I already got.

Sorry, but it's kinda ugly, that green is disgusting.
I hope the carry case it a bit more solid than the current one, I'm always scared of it bending.

@PersonaTexas The issue with Switch 1 games in handheld mode has been resolved. A few months ago, a system update for Switch 2 added a somewhat hidden setting called "Handheld Mode Boost" that would make Switch games appear in their docked resolution in handheld, thus fixing the pixel density issue.

@Jack_Goetz They said it was exclusive to Nintendo stores in (IIRC) San Francisco, and NY.

(edited out Chicago).

Tempting, to be sure, but my Switch 2 is still running fine, and I frankly can't justify such a huge purchase when I have my wedding coming up (two years away, but still). Only way I could see myself getting one of these puppies is if my mother would be interested, as she is also a Zelda fan, and I would like to get her to play the other games in the series beyond just the original NES game; or if I gift my old Switch 2 to my brother so my niece can play that one and then get this new one for myself.

And that's even assuming that the scalpers don't scoop up all of them in a matter of minutes, if not seconds. Here's hoping it will be available for in-store preorder and not online-only; that's the only way I was able to get the TOTK OLED Switch to replace my launch-day model, which was beginning to die on me (if the noisy fan was any indication).

I don't have any interest in the controller or the console. I'm not crazy about the look. I'm more excited for the show down between Zelda and GTA 6!

@Res462 they were saying for the stand for the controller.

Looks amazing but yaaa definitely waiting for the oled / lite versions instead…

Pre-order link where????!!! 🐵🐵🐵

@Batfan2425 And that's what I was responding to. The stand is exclusive to the Nintendo stores in NY and San Francisco (no Chicago store).

Just can't really afford to upgrade to the new console, unless I could find someone to take my current one at just a slight discount. But that Pro Controller is a must. GORGEOUS.

@Ganon821 Huh?!

Ew.

No pre-order yet.

I'm glad the console at least looks beautiful. Shame I'm not one of those nuts who can justify buying every special edition.

Whens preorders open?

Glad I held off on getting a Switch 2 Pro controller. Hopefully these are easy to find.

I heard the LoZ edition of the Switch 2 doesn't have the game included... why?

I wonder if this new version will already be the version with replacable batteries.

No OLED ... not really worth a second Switch 2 without it.

Well, I'll be refreshing Nintendo's site all day looking for that Pro Controller. (I've been holding out for a nice design, and this is the one!)

@N8tiveT3ch price. As in, it'll make the sticker price too expensive

@Jeaz Guess we'll find out whenever the hardware gets posted.

Sure would be nice if Nintendo released any hard info about the thing. Like will it be in store only, will it have Pre-Orders, dates for that if it does, or I don't know a price... maybe thats too much for them to give the people that have been holding off buying a NS2 because they did want another gray gaming device :/

Okay but can we have some colour Joy Cons available on their own pleaaaase

Can I buy the joy cons by themselves?

It looks nice but I hate it doesn’t come bundled with the game. I might buy the pro controller but I might just stick with my OG Switch pro controller for now.

Nintendo absolutely needs to give Nintendo Switch Online subscribers preorder preference for the Switch 2 and Pro controller!! They cannot just let scalper bots scoop up all the units in two seconds flat!

Personally would have preferred the Switch 2 tablet to be brown. Would have been a great effect to have the back of the system to have that nice deep brown, but ah well. Just like Michael Jordon said, I used to save money for times like these 😭

Fomo through the roof...

Not having the Joy-Con avaliable separately sucks. I have never traded in my system to get a special edition. I seriously considering it for this LoZ edition.

@HubbaHunt
That's the $100,000 question.

I was going to wait the OLED revision but man, I’ll have to dip.

@jakubzet if you run to Warrio64’s Twitter or thread account he just posted a link to bestbuy preorder a bit ago. Not sure if it’s still available or already sold out but I got one about 10 minutes ago.

If this included an OLED screen upgrade or hall effect/TMR sticks I'd be all over it, but I already have a Switch 2 and pro controller so I can't justify purchasing these. It simply isn't worth it unless this will be your first Switch 2. That said, if I was rich I'd buy one for myself, and one for each of my maids and butlers.

no pro controller so...
Has the price been announced? I'm assuming it's the same

As I suspected it doesnt come with the game again. Why couldnt they have just launched it alongside the game itself? Though I'll admit it looks kinda cool

If I didn't have a Switch 2 already I'd be tempted. I might get the Pro Controller though as I don't have a Switch 2 one yet.

Never really been a fan of the dedicated Zelda themed consoles- but cool to see so many people love it.

Man I like those joy con. Not fussed on the rest. I wonder if there's any chance they'll have them available to buy separately? Probably not right? Would be sweet though.

It's gorgeous and I really want it, but I really wish it came with OOT included. Feels like a big miss that it's not a bundle.

ORDERING IS LIVE!! order right now while you can!

Ugh. I have a switch 2 pro controller, but I really want the Zelda one to match my BoTW pro controller for switch 2.

@JimNorman Y'all, the US Nintendo Store is already hosting the Zelda Switch 2, Pro controller and amiibo! Order now before the scalpers get them all!!

Edit: still not seeing it available on any of the US retailers like BestBuy and Target. Looks like the US Nintendo Store is the only place available at the moment, and the Pro controller is already sold out!

@Jeaz yeah, saw that. Got the controller from Best Buy, that’s all I care about.

Had the Pro Controller in my Best Buy cart, then lost it. Furiously refreshed for about an hour and managed to get the preorder button a second time. Pounced, and am now the happy future owner of a Zelda Pro Controller.

Note for people who want to try refreshing Best Buy (It's going up and down) you have to go to the main Pro Controller listing and the Zelda version is a color option.

@Jeaz that's insane, so even before you blink it's gone? 🫤😨

Ebay looks so disgusting right now. I swear Nintendo might as well as charge those prices and cut out the middleman.

The first colored Switch 2 Joy Cons.
Needs more colourful Joy Cons Switch 2 shell.

I preordered the console! Finally getting a Switch 2, it's official now. I think the joycons are so well executed. Love the little link and zelda sprites on them.

That's my birthday.

I should send Nintendo a picture of EVERY SINGLE Console/handheld etc... and they should send me one of these for free.

The colours pop a lot more than on the leaked images. Just getting the Pro Controller though. Alas I missed out on the version with the stand.

I'm getting nervous that nothing announced in the direct is available to pre-order on the Nintendo UK store yet, and it's all sold out on the Nintendo US store.

Looks great. I really want that Pro Controller. Good excuse to get a 2nd controller. ^^

I wished to know earlier that Nintendo would release a new Zelda themed console soon😣 I've already got one now very recently because of the new Ocarina of time remake, if i knew, i wouldve gotten this version😟 But i need to be happy with the console i have now, it can play the game fine even if its not the Zelda version.

i wonder if they would come out with zelda theme skins so we could put them on our switch 2s.

I've yet to get a Switch 2 Pro controller--Hopefully I can find this at that time it releases.

Well, that’s all sold out now. Oh well, maybe my days of collecting Zelda-themed things are over lol

Not sold out yet on the Italian Nintendo Store but the website is struggling sooo hard, it crashes constantly and payments are not working.

@SkyArcher I'm in a queue behind 80000 people for the UK store 🙄 can't see there's any chance of me getting a pre-order for this blasted machine

THIS THING IS LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
