UPDATE: Nintendo of America has confirmed that the Pink/Green Joy-Con set is indeed coming to the US later this month.

It’s also important to note that the North American version flips the colors, so if you had your heart set on an all green or all pink set of Joy-Con, it’s now possible.
Stay tuned to Nintendo Wire on Twitter for in-stock alerts!
It’ll soon be even easier to build your ideal combination of Switch Joy-Con, if a new listing found on EB Games Canada’s inventory system is anything to go by. Controller Crusade reports that the Pink/Green combination, which was previously only available in the Americas as part of the Splatoon 2 bundle, will be getting a standalone release on January 5th.
Europe saw a standalone release of the pair in July of 2017 so it wouldn’t be too surprising. It’s likely North America will also see a release if it turns out the listing is real, given the two countries often share launches.
