Nintendo Will Soon Start Selling Individual Joy-Cons For $40

If you wanted to buy a new Joy-Con to replace your current Joy-Con on your Nintendo Switch, you’d typically need to buy them in a pair, which is pretty expensive at $80, especially if you only need one. However, the good news is that according to a tweet by the company, it seems that they will soon start to sell Joy-Cons individually.

The company notes that starting on the 9th of November, they will be selling Joy-Cons individually where they will be priced starting at $40 each. It should be noted that previously, the company did sell individual Joy-Cons, but they were priced at $50 each, not to mention they were pretty hard to come by.

Nintendo's President Apologizes For Joy-Con Drift Issues

During Nintendo’s financial Q&A, the company’s president has since come forward to officially apologize for the issues that gamers were experiencing as a result of the drifting. In a statement made by Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa (translated by Kotaku), he apologized for it but stopped short of going into details as to how the company may (or may not) be addressing it.

“Regarding the Joy-Con, we apologize for any trouble caused to our customers. We are continuing to aim to improve our products, but as the Joy-Con is the subject of a class-action lawsuit in the United States and this is still a pending issue, we would it like to refrain from responding about any specific actions.”
