Next month sees the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2’s first major new exclusive of 2026, Mario Tennis Fever. And to celebrate the arrival of Mario’s latest sporting adventure, on the same day, Nintendo will release the “first new colored” Joy-Con 2 controllers for its best-selling hybrid console.
The Joy-Con 2 Light Purple and Light Green launch on February 12 and will retail for $99. Yes, that's pretty hefty, but it’s the standard price for a set of Joy-Con 2 controllers, so at least there’s no markup if you want to switch up from the default orange and blue set that comes out of the box with the Switch 2.
