Nintendo unboxes new Switch Lite color, proving whether or not it's blue or purple



There's a new Nintendo Switch Lite color scheme releasing this month, but the actual color itself has been debated as of late. Branded as blue, the Switch Lite has appeared more as a GameCube-colored purple to many, leading to Nintendo publishing their own unboxing video of it to figure out whether it is indeed blue or purple. The latest episode of Nintendo Minute features the hosts showing off the blue Switch Lite, while comparing it to the blue of Mario's overalls and the purple of Waluigi's outfit. Speaking of Waluigi, there's also an amusing, to say the least, official render of everyone's favorite Mario Tennis player featured. If you're interested in judging what color the Switch Lite is for yourself, it'll be launching May 7th in Japan and Europe, while North Americans will get it on May 21st.

I love how they are holding the "blue" switch, up to her clearly purple shirt, and it looks like the same color.

I honestly would have liked to see a nice non-ambiguous purple shade come out for the Switch Lites, myself -- would have been pleasing visually to go alongside the coral, turquoise, and yellow they already have going on. Especially if it was a lilac or vibrant lavender sort of purple, given the "lighter" color scheme they've been using. That said, if they were going to go for blue, I think a sky blue would have been a better option personally given the trending color scheme with Lites. They're all very vibrant but light colors, and I think this particular shade (or very similar) would have been the best addition for a blue color choice while still differentiating it from the turquoise:
