Nintendo's new pastel Joy-Con are up for preorder — and they've already sold out once

TL;DR: Nintendo's new pastel Joy-Con ($79.99 each) are available for preorder at Best Buy and GameStop ahead of their official release on Friday, June 30. They're currently sold out in the My Nintendo Store.

Good news for anyone who's busted their Switch's controllers playing Tears of the Kingdom: Nintendo is releasing two brand-new pairs of Joy-Con in pretty, summery pastel hues later this month.

Priced at $79.99 just like their standard Neon Red/Neon Blue counterparts, the new colorways include sherbert-y Pastel Purple/Pastel Green and Pastel Pink/Pastel Yellow. (They kind of look like the Joy-Con that came with Nintendo's special-edition Animal Crossing: New Horizons Switch from 2020, only with black straps.) You can't mix and match unless you buy both pairs, unfortunately.

Both pairs of pastel Joy-Con have already sold out in the My Nintendo Store, Nintendo's online shop, but you can still pre-order them through Best Buy or GameStop before their June 30 launch.

The pastel Joy-Con are compatible with the regular Switch as well as the newer OLED model, and functionally identical to all of the Joy-Con that have come before them: You get motion controls, HD rumble, and a battery life of about 20 hours per charge. This means their analog sticks will also probably drift eventually, but hey — at least they're cute. (Keep in mind that Nintendo has a free repair program for if/when that happens.)
