Nintendo Adds New Nintendo Switch Lite Color to Lineup

The Nintendo Switch Lite, which is already extremely colorful as far as Nintendo consoles go, is about to get even more so with the addition of a new color to the console’s lineup: coral. Nintendo announced the new addition today, and its release date is a lot sooner than you might think.

More specifically, the coral color joins the already available Nintendo Switch Lite lineup of gray, yellow, and turquoise on April 3rd. As with other Nintendo Switch Lite consoles, the coral color will retail for $199.99. As for why Nintendo decided to add a coral-colored version of its handheld-only Switch console to its offerings, there’s no telling. It does looks pretty dang adorable, however.

The addition of the coral color to the available lineup does seem to imply that Nintendo isn’t averse to adding even more as time goes on. One of the more colorful bits of the Nintendo Switch that folks seem to have fun with are the Joy-Cons, and considering that the Lite’s controls are baked right into the hardware, that option isn’t really available here, so maybe Nintendo will just keep adding colors as time goes on.
