Nintendo to Release Pink and Green Joy-Cons in America
Nintendo of America announced on Twitter that the company will be selling Neon Pink and Neon Green Joy-Con controllers in the United States later in January 2018. It looks like the controllers will come in a dual-color pack instead of as standalone colors.

The left Joy-Con is pink, while the right one is green, which is the inverse of the Japanese set, which had green on the left and pink on the right. This means that full pair sets of pink or green Joy-Cons are now possible if people are willing to import to and from Japan.
For reference, a set of Joy-Cons retails for $79.99 USD in the United States.
While Nintendo is marketing the Joy-Cons for Splatoon 2, the color combination is a pretty common one and so will sell even to non-Splatoon fans.
And of course, we now have two more colors to add to our crazy Switch Joy-Con combinations. Seriously, some of them are pretty epic. Others are a bit of an eye-sore. But customization is every gamer's friend.
