Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition Switch 2 — Full Design, Pricing, and Pre-Order Details

Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 – The Legend of Zelda – 40th Anniversary Edition went live immediately after yesterday’s Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct. As we covered when the remake was announced, this special-edition hardware drops on 29 October 2026 — one week ahead of the Ocarina of Time remake — and now that pre-order pages are live in the US, we have full pricing and design details to share.

What’s in the Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 Bundle?

The entire console set is dressed in dark forest green, with gold Triforce motifs on the Joy-Con 2 controllers, the dock, and the back panel of the system. Gold and silver triangles adorn the console’s back face — a subtle nod to the Triforce’s three-part structure. It is a restrained, premium look rather than an over-branded one.

Confirmed bundle contents:

  • Nintendo Switch 2 system (dark green, special design)
  • Joy-Con 2 controllers — dark green with Triforce imprint
  • Nintendo Switch 2 Dock — gold Triforce front and centre
  • Joy-Con 2 Grip and two Joy-Con 2 Wrist Straps
  • AC Adapter, USB-C charging cable, Ultra High-Speed HDMI Cable

No game is included. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake releases a week later on 5 November 2026 and must be purchased separately.

Confirmed Pricing and Where to Pre-Order

US pricing is now confirmed across all three products:

  • Console: US$519.99 (approx. S$690–710 at current rates)
  • Pro Controller: US$99.99
  • Carrying Case: US$39.99

Pre-orders are live in the US at Best Buy and on the Nintendo Store online. Note that the Japan-market version (priced at ¥62,980) is explicitly listed as a Japanese-Language System and sold in Japan only — it is not the unit you want to import into Singapore. The US and European versions are the international releases to watch for.

What Singapore Switch 2 Players Should Do Now

Singapore has no confirmed pre-order date or local pricing yet. However, Nintendo’s major hardware launches have consistently reached local major game retailers and electronics chains within a short window of the global release. Given the 29 October date, a Singapore announcement could reasonably arrive in the next week or two.

If you already own a Switch 2 and are a Zelda fan, the Pro Controller at US$99.99 is worth watching — it is a standalone cosmetic upgrade with no need to replace a working console. For anyone still on the fence about the Switch 2, pairing this edition with the Ocarina of Time remake on 5 November makes for a compelling end-of-year combo. Keep an eye on our hardware coverage for Singapore pricing as it lands.
