Today, Nintendo has revealed a new Switch Lite colour[prebreak]1[/prebreak] for Japan:

Everyone will call it pink, but Nintendo says it's coral. Preorders open March 7th and so far there is no announcement for the US/EU.

Damn... All my brain can say is "Ewww".

I guess it'll end up like the used pink DS lite's that are being sold way cheaper than any other color.

The pink DS lites are nice though

For those that like the colour sure.
90% of those systems were purchased by parents who got them for their little girls together with Nintendogs and the like (I've bought a few bundles like that, I did change the housing though).

I have the feeling the same will happen here. I'll probably try to grab a cheap used pink one later on.

>colour
color

No. It is both Colour and Color.

When I saw this on the home page I was like "FUCK" because I thought it was red

I was wrong

I'd like a lite some time but now I'm torn between this and the turquoise one.

Except the colour actually is coral.

...is this one of those man vs woman things?

Anyway...I only give a damn about different shades/hues/saturation/tint/accent/whatever when it comes to picking the colour of the wall.

For anything else...

...this is all pink to me (except that one brown and the couple of purple ones).


EDIT: for clarity: I don't mind switches in no matter what color. If people like pink, then it's great they have a choice.

Rick: "Not pink, CORAL!"

 

[regnad]

Well, no wonder: it IS pink. Perhaps nintendo should think of a better color if they want to use fancy names.


News flash: rumor starters don't distinguish between China and Japan.

Where do you think these things, as well as virtually all game consoles, cell phones, etc etc are manufactured nowadays?

Stop being Mr boring as gamers like to hav appealing colors to ther machines - noone wants to just see the black or grey

 

[pcwizard7]

come on they had to a pink switch because they know 50%+ of the population will buy a switch or buy another one to have a pink switch

EDIT. I prefer black over grey when buying electronics otherwise I ll pick next best colour

Are you sure you quoted the wrong person? I don't mind switches being pink, so my apologies if my posts came across as such.

It doesn't look pink, it looks like strong salmon to me, whatever the name of that color is. (coral I guess)

You said only giv a damn about wallpaper color so I thought you were basically saying all console colors are pointless - np mate

I actully agree, it is coral. Why didn't they announce this on Valentine's lol?

Edit: seems it's a jp only color, they have a different Valentine's holiday (White (or red) and black day? I forget, I just remember it's weird and if a girl gives you something on the one day, and you don't give her something on the other, it means you don't like her.)

Does anyone know, do the guys not just give them something anyway and say like "here's this I'm just not looking for a gf right now" or something?

Edit 2:I was a bit confused:

Girls give chocolates on Valentine's day to people they like, and "duty chocolate" to some they're supposed to give to.
On white day, 14th of March, the guys give back.

Nintendo: Creates console with easy to color plastic cases.
Also Nintendo: 4 colors. Take it or leave it.

And the next color should be beige to invoke nostalgia.

Folks actually discussing the color, what a time to be alive.
