New Coral Nintendo Switch Lite Now Available to Pre-Order on GameStop

Today, Nintendo announced a brand new color of the Nintendo Switch Lite, which debuted last year as a cheaper alternative to the base Nintendo Switch. More specifically, it revealed that it's adding a fourth color option for Nintendo gamers, Coral, which gives the console a light pink look. Beyond the new paint job, there's nothing new or notable about the new variation, but many are saying it's the best looking Nintendo Switch Lite skew yet.

For those that don't know: the Nintendo Switch Lite is the handheld-only version of the Nintendo Switch version. In addition to being only playable in handheld mode, it's smaller, has a better battery, a smaller screen, and a few other minor differences.
