If there's one game from the past few years that even non-gamers have heard of, it's Fortnite. Reaching massive widespread popularity, Epic Games' title has come to multiple platforms since its initial launch, including the Nintendo Switch. And now, Nintendo and Epic Games are teaming up to release a special edition Nintendo Switch console, featuring unique Joy-Con colors as well as a console dock covered in series-related designs. This bundle comes with a yellow left Joy-Con and a right blue Joy-Con, with the latter sporting a flying bus on top of the home button.

Extra goodies also include the free-to-play Fortnite coming pre-installed, alongside a code voucher for the Wildcat and Sleek Strike Back Bling cosmetics, and 2,000 V-Bucks ingame currency. The Fortnite special edition Nintendo Switch will be available on October 30th for Europeans, while Australia will get the console on November 6th.

Love the colours even if it is a shitty bundle.

Gawd, that thing is hideous. Bad enough the Fortshite name's gotta be plastered all over everything.

Mario red though

 

[Bladexdsl]

the way things are going this is the only platform you'll be able to get fadnite soon

 

[Noctosphere]

Mario red though

yea but first, it isn't for a special occasion like the 35th of mario
secondly, only red joycon, thats all what is theme
There should at least be a cap or a mushroom on the dock, no?

 

[Sonic Angel Knight]

They did

Red joycons and a cappy carrying case is not a Mario themed switch. The switch and dock is still black like all the other ones.

exactly what I'm talking about

 

[SkittleDash]

No thanks... I'd rather not buy something that Epic spent money on using such money they aquired from kids from their stolen parent's bank cards.

I'm sorry Europe and Australia, you deserve better than this.
