BODY: On October 29, Nintendo released three Legend of Zelda 40th anniversary products in Japan: a Nintendo Switch 2 console, a Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller and a Nintendo Switch 2 carrying case. Each one has a design with the Triforce, according to 4Gamer.
The console goes beyond a decorated shell. The console itself, the Joy-Con 2 controllers, the Joy-Con 2 straps and the dock all carry the special design. The Pro Controller comes with a display stand, so it can be shown off as well as played with, and the carrying case comes with a screen protector.
Prices, tax included:
- Nintendo Switch 2 Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition (Japanese language, domestic only): 62,980 yen
- Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition (with display stand): 12,980 yen
- Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition (with screen protector): 3,980 yen
The insider take
The console is the Japanese-language, domestic-only model; 4Gamer lists that label as part of its product name, and attaches it to the console only, not to the Pro Controller or the carrying case. The article does not explain what the label means in practice, so anyone outside Japan thinking about importing the console should check that before buying. Nintendo's official Zelda Japan account announced the release on X with the hashtag for the Zelda 40th anniversary.
