Nintendo has announced that, like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom before it, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is getting a limited edition OLED Nintendo Switch.
Announced during August's Super Mario Bros. Wonder Nintendo Direct, the limited edition console pays homage to the next big Switch game but doesn't actually include Super Mario Bros. Wonder in the box.
This is because the hardware launches a little ahead of the game on October 6, while Super Mario Bros. Wonder itself launches on October 20.
The hardware includes special Joy-Cons and a unique docking station, both in (almost) plain "Mario Red". A silhouette hides on the back of the console though, alongside some coins inside.
Nintendo's last major release, Tears of the Kingdom, also received a limited edition OLED Switch that launched before the game. Other big hitters like Splatoon 3 have also received special hardware, but this will be the first Mario-themed console since Super Mario Odyssey launched in 2017.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder was revealed iduring June's Nintendo Direct as the next 2D Mario game and people instantly fell in love with the next big power-up: Elephant Mario. The game will also be the first without Charles Martinet, the long-term voice actor for Mario, as he announced his stepping back earlier in August.
