If you’re a gamer with a certain aesthetic or if you just think it’s time for new Joy-Cons, then Nintendo has some exciting news for you! Nintendo is kicking off the Summer months with the launch of two new pastel sets of Joy-Cons.

The Joy-Cons are set to release on June 3oth, and are available for pre-order at GameStop. The Joy-Cons are only sold as sets (lavender/mint green or pastel pink/pastel yell0w) retailing at $79.99 USD per set.
Nintendo has released a lot of solid colored Joy-Con sets over the years. But other than the Skyward Sword-themed Joy-Cons that came out a few years ago, the pastel sets might be my new favorite, the pink and yellow set being the most appealing to me.
Joy-Cons seem to be an item that Switch owners run through on the regular, so it’s a good thing that new colors are on the horizon if you’re in need of a new set (or two). What do you think of the new pastel colors? Will you be pre-ordering a set? Let us know in the comments below.
