Following on from yesterday’s announcement of a new limited edition Pokémon Let’s Go Switch bundle, Nintendo have announced that preorders have now started ahead of the console’s release in 66 days time of November 16th 2018. As you can see from the images the front of the limited edition Nintendo Switch dock features Pikachu and Eevee.
What’s Included in the Limited Edition Bundle?
The limited edition bundle includes:
- A Switch console decorated with silhouettes of Pikachu and Eevee;
- Special Pikachu and Eevee themed Joy-Con;
- Switch dock with colourful artwork of Pikachu and Eevee;
- Pre-installed version of Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu!
- A Poké Ball Plus controller.
This bundle is a must-have for any Pokémon fan. The console itself is adorned with charming silhouettes of Pikachu and Eevee, making it a unique collector’s item. The Joy-Con controllers are also themed, with one in a bright yellow Pikachu color and the other in a brown Eevee color, adding a playful touch to your gaming experience. The Switch dock is equally impressive, featuring vibrant artwork of the beloved Pokémon characters.
Enhanced Gaming Experience
The inclusion of the Poké Ball Plus controller is a game-changer. This accessory not only serves as a controller but also allows you to “catch” Pokémon in the game by mimicking the throwing motion of a real Poké Ball. It even lights up, vibrates, and makes sounds, providing an immersive experience that brings the Pokémon world to life. Additionally, the Poké Ball Plus can be used with the Pokémon GO mobile game, allowing you to transfer Pokémon between the two games seamlessly.
“Take your Pokémon journey to the Kanto region with this special hardware bundle! It packs in the Switch system, a Pikachu and Eevee themed dock and matching Joy-Con controllers, the Poké Ball Plus accessory, and a download code for the Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! game. As for the system itself, it includes Pikachu and Eevee themed Joy-Con controllers, and to finish it off the back side of the console has Pikachu and Eevee silhouettes drawn on it!”
For those unfamiliar with the game, Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! is a reimagining of the classic Pokémon Yellow game, originally released for the Game Boy in 1998. The game takes players back to the Kanto region, where they can catch, train, and battle Pokémon in a vibrant, updated world. The game also introduces new mechanics, such as the ability to see wild Pokémon in the overworld and a simplified catching system inspired by Pokémon GO.
The limited edition bundle is not just about aesthetics; it also offers a comprehensive gaming experience that combines nostalgia with modern gameplay innovations. Whether you’re a long-time fan of the series or new to the world of Pokémon, this bundle provides everything you need to embark on an exciting adventure.
Preorders are now live, and given the popularity of both the Pokémon franchise and the Nintendo Switch, it’s expected that this limited edition bundle will sell out quickly. Don’t miss your chance to own this unique piece of Pokémon history.
