Nintendo’s “Pokémon Scarlet and Violet” Switch OLED was a great way to celebrate the release of the games, and remains one of the better special edition Switches Nintendo has released. (At least until the Zelda Switch OLED arrives on May 12.)
The “Pokémon Scarlet and Violet” Switch features artwork from the games and a custom red and purple colour scheme. Take a look at this beautiful thing:
Where to Buy the “Pokémon Scarlet and Violet” Switch OLED
Amazon has the best price right now at $549.95 with free delivery.
The new legendary Pokémon, Koraidon and Miraidon, feature on the glossy front side of the dock, with a subtle Pokéball design on the backside. The back of the actual Switch is covered in colourful illustrations of the three Pokémon you can choose between as your starting companion: the cat Sprigatito, croc Fuecoco and stylish duck Quaxly. Tucked between the starter Pokémon are illustrations of symbols you’ll recognise as you play through the games.
The left Joy-Con controller is scarlet with the emblem of “Pokémon Scarlet’s” Naranja Academy detailed on the bottom, while the right controller is — surprise, surprise — violet with the Uva Academy emblem.
It will also have all the usual specs of Nintendo’s high-end console, including a vibrant 7-inch OLED screen, 64GB of internal storage and enhanced audio in handheld and tabletop mode.
The first “Pokémon Scarlet and Violet” DLC will release later this year in two parts. You can pre-order “The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero” here.
