<p>Nintendo has revealed that it will be permanently reducing the price of its Switch Joy-Con controllers in Japan, starting from next month.</p>
<p>From 6th November, the price of a single Joy-Con controller will be revised from 4,480 yen + tax to 3,740 yen + tax, which is a drop of about 16.5%. The price reduction will apply to single Joy-Con products only, meaning Switch owners will still pay the same, regular price for a complete pack of two (thanks, <a class="external" href="https://japanesenintendo.com/2020/10/12/nintendo-to-reduce-joy-con-price/">Japanese Nintendo</a>).</p>
<p>Users in Japan can buy Grey, Neon Red, Neon Blue, Neon Yellow, Neon Green, Red, and Neon Pink Joy-Con from the country’s <a class="external" href="https://www.nintendo.co.jp/hardware/switch/accessories/joycon_single.html">official store</a>.</p>
<p>Naturally, then, we can’t help but wonder whether or not a similar pricing restructure will arrive here in the west. Could we be about to see a permanent reduction in price across Europe and the US, or will this remain a Japan-only deal?</p>
<p>We’re sure a drop in price would be well received, especially with all of the <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/tags/joy--con-drift">Joy-Con drift</a> issues we’ve been seeing, but feel free to have your say in the comments below. Do you think we’ll see a price drop soon?</p>
