Leakers Say Zelda 40th-Anniversary Switch 2 Pro Controller and Limited Console Planned

The reports suggest Nintendo could use themed hardware to boost holiday sales tied to a major remake and anniversary celebration.

Overview

  • Multiple insiders published reports on July 23–24 claiming a Legend of Zelda 40th‑anniversary Switch 2 Pro Controller is real and that a limited-edition Switch 2 console may also be in development.
  • Reported controller details include green-and-gold hand grips and a centered Triforce emblem placed between the plus and minus buttons.
  • Sources say the hardware would be broadly Zelda‑themed rather than specifically tied to the Ocarina of Time remake, even if launch timing lines up with that game.
  • Coverage notes mixed leaker track records and no official confirmation from Nintendo, and retailer listings that suggested dates remain unverified.
  • Analysts and leakers say a controller-first release could reflect higher margins for peripherals and that Nintendo may announce confirmed details at a future Direct or other official update.
