The Big N have announced that they will soon allow customers to pre-order Switch bundles of their own preference; buyers can order any combination of Joycons (from 5 colors), straps (7 shades) and even other peripherals and games (from a catalogue of the more popular ones).
The service is offered via their Japanese online store here. Orders placed on August 22 will be delivered by the first of October; those placed after that date will be delivered throughout the upcoming months. Once you place an order, it cannot be cancelled though.
This is a great idea, as it secures a purchase for the customer without them having to worry about availability, that too with their personal taste, especially considering how the Switch is facing shortages in Japan and people even have to wait in tediously long lines for hours to get their hands on the system. Let’s hope they bring this outside of Japan.
