The Nintendo Switch 2 already boasts some impressive accessories, but the upcoming Eevee-themed collection promises to be the most adorable yet. Hori will release four Eevee-inspired accessories – a wired controller, two carrying cases, and a protective pouch for 24 game cards – on October 3. Their launch is perfectly timed for the release of the next major Pokémon game, Pokémon Legends: Z-A. All four items in the collection feature a charming `Eevee Cottage Core` design with cute illustrations of the Gen 1 Pokémon. These accessories are officially licensed by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company and are compatible with both the new Switch 2 and the original Switch. So, even if you haven`t upgraded to the new-gen console yet, you can enjoy these delightful gadgets with your current Switch.
Horipad Turbo Wired Controller – Eevee Cottage Core Edition
The Horipad Turbo Wired Controller – Eevee Cottage Core Edition blends a charming Eevee-themed design with a light blue and brown color palette. It offers all the standard functionalities of Horipad Turbo controllers, including two remappable back buttons, a Turbo function for rapid button activation, and adjustable dead zones for the analog sticks. Primarily designed for the Switch 2, it also incorporates the C Button for GameChat access. While its wired nature requires connection to a Switch 2 dock`s USB port, the benefit is freedom from battery level concerns.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A – The Perfect Companion for Your Eevee Collection
The launch of these delightful Eevee-themed accessories for Switch and Switch 2 perfectly coincides with the release of the next major Pokémon game, Pokémon Legends: Z-A, set to arrive on both consoles on October 16. Pokémon Legends: Z-A expands upon the real-time Pokémon catching mechanics introduced in its predecessor, Legends: Arceus, and will feature an entirely new real-time battle system where players must dodge enemy attacks while issuing commands to their Pokémon partners. Furthermore, a special bundle will be available alongside the game`s release, comprising a Switch 2 console and a digital copy of Pokémon Legends: Z-A. This $500 bundle offers a $40 saving compared to purchasing the console and game separately.
