Things are looking rosy over at Nintendo, as the gaming giant has announced it will be releasing a new pair of pastel pink Joy-Cons for the Nintendo Switch.

These blush-coloured controllers are being launched on 22nd March alongside Nintendo’s latest game to come out of the Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Peach: Showtime.

The pair will be sold for a limited time only at Nintendo store and other retailers at the price of £69.99. As per usual, the Joy-Cons will be useable as two individual controllers or one joint controller for the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch OLED.

Eagle-eyed fans may remember that Nintendo already released a series of pastel-coloured Joy-Cons. These pink, yellow, and green and purple sets were released as a summer range and are still available online.

The upcoming Princess Peach game sees everyone’s favourite damsel in distress taking the reigns for the very first time on the Nintendo Switch. Its story follows the princess's attempts to stop her night at the theatre being ruined by the wicked Grape and the Sour Bunch.

With the help of the theatre’s guardian, Stella, Peach is able transform into various different forms, including Swordfighter Peach, Kung Fu Peach, Patisserie Peach and even Detective Peach.
