GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Special-edition consoles like this typically sell out fast and become sought-after collector's items, signaling strong confidence in the Zelda franchise's enduring appeal. The timing also ties into the reveal of the Ocarina of Time remake, suggesting Nintendo is building anticipation for a broader Zelda push on Switch 2 hardware.
- Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 costs $519.99, launching October 29 with no bundled game.
- A matching $99.99 Pro Controller is also available for pre-order.
- This is the 12th Zelda-themed Nintendo hardware release and the first special edition for Switch 2.
Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller — If the Zelda 40th Anniversary console sells out, the Pro Controller is the easier way to get in on the fun — and it's the comfiest way to play Ocarina of Time on the big screen. Great for long dungeon sessions where Joy-Cons just don't cut it.
