If you are in the market for a Nintendo Switch OLED, you might want to consider passing on the standard version and get yourself one of these colorful Splatoon 3 special editions. It’s absolutely covered in Splaoon-inspired “graffiti”, and the blue and yellow gradient Joy-Con controllers might be the best looking variant to date. Pre-orders are open now via the links below, just keep in mind that the new console design doesn’t actually come bundled with Splatoon 3. You’ll have to purchase the game separately when it launches on September 9th.

In addition to the 7-inch OLED screen, the new Nintendo Switch features a bump to 64GB of internal memory, a wired LAN port, enhanced audio, and a wider adjustable stand. As for the technical specs, Nintendo did not make any of the upgrades that gamers were hoping to see โ€“ namely a more powerful processor, 4K video output, and better battery life. The larger, OLED screen and enhanced audio are the main draws here. Inย our review from late last yearย we noted that the Nintendo Switch OLED is only an incremental upgrade from the original Nintendo Switch, but it is still a welcome one.ย 

As noted,ย Splatoon 3ย is set to release for the Nintendo Switch on September 9th. The new entry in the colorful franchise centers around the Splatlands, described as “a sun-scorched desert inhabited by battle-hardened Inklings and Octolings.” You can check outย all of our previous coverage of the upcoming Nintendo Switch video game right here.
