Everything has to look so serious these days.

The colourful Joy Cons were part of the Switch’s identity, sad to see it reduced to an accent they seem almost ashamed of.

The original switch also had an option with grey joy cons

My switch came with black joycons. Iirc it cost extra to get the colored ones.

I think they were the same, but the coloured ones were a little harder to get irrc? Preordered the grey version and it cost 330€ - coloured joy-cons should have been the same

People said similar things about the all-white Wii after the GameCube - it’s just the natural ebb and flow of product design

My hope is that they have an inverted version

I’m guessing the all grey model probably sold better than the one with colorful joycons so they lead with that this time.
