Tired of using the standard red, black and blue Joy-Cons for your Nintendo Switch? Are Cosmo and Wanda (pink and green Joy-Cons) no longer slick enough for you? Are your friends complaining there aren’t enough Joy-Cons for everyone to gang up on each other in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?
Whatever the case may be, Nintendo has announced two new pairs of Joy-Con controllers painted in four more wacky colors. One pair comes in Blue and Neon Yellow, while the other pair is painted in Neon Orange and Neon Purple.
Customize your #NintendoSwitch even more with these new Joy-Con colors – Blue/Neon Yellow and Neon Purple/Neon Orange. Available beginning 10/4 for $79.99. #MyWayToPlay pic.twitter.com/231TcnnTG2

These color Joy-Cons will be released on Oct 4, just two weeks after the Nintendo Switch Lite, which already comes in three limited colors.
Since the Switch Lite doesn’t carry Joy-Cons and built-in motion controls, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to buy either combination of the new Joy-Cons to accompany it to make certain games playable, should you plan on buying the new console.
Just like other Joy-Con combinations, the new pairs will cost $79.99 at launch.
