New Animal Crossing New Horizons-themed Nintendo Switch controllers have been announced by controller maker Power A. More specifically, Power A has revealed a pair of new wired Switch and Switch Lite controllers inspired by Animal Crossing characters Tom Nook and Isabelle. As you would expect, the latter boasts a yellow design, while the former boasts a teal design. Despite boasting different designs, the pair of controllers are exactly the same hardware-wise, and both cost only $24.99. Pre-orders for the Tom Nook version are available on Amazon here. The Isabelle version is available to pre-order here.

As for the controllers themselves, in addition to being officially licensed, they both come with a 3.5mm audio jack, mappable buttons, and a “standard ergonomic layout.” Meanwhile, in addition to this, a detachable 10 foot USB cable with a velcro-strap is also included for what Power A says makes for easy storage and less clutter.
Unfortunately, if you prefer wireless controllers, there is no wireless variant. What there is though is a 2-year guarantee from the hardware maker.
“Play your favorite Nintendo Switch games in style using this Officially Licensed POWER A enhanced wired Controller,” reads an official product pitch. “Designed for comfort during extended gaming sessions, this wired Controller features a 3.5mm audio jack, mappable advanced gaming Buttons, and standard ergonomic layout.
