However, once you set up the console and select English as the primary language, it will function just like any other Switch you could purchase in North America.Įven with the advent of more powerful gaming handheld like the Steam Deck and Asus ROG Ally, the Switch is still the only (official) place to experience first-party Nintendo titles like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Metroid Dread, and Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. The only real catch here is that the box and documentation are in Japanese. The OLED model is similar to its standard counterpart, but features several improvements, including a larger and brighter display, better audio, and a more robust kickstand. It’s normally $349.99, but you can currently pick up the Japanese model of the Nintendo Switch OLED at Woot for just $289.99, less than the price of the vanilla Switch. We’ve included some of our favorite deals this week from the worlds of gaming and entertainment, along with some of the best-selling products that have made an appearance on Polygon this week. Thankfully, good deals are always in fashion here at Polygon, and while you may not be able to save on Sailor Moon Jimmy Choos, or Team Rocket streetwear, we might just have a Space Marine bomber jacket with your name on it.
As we wave goodbye to Prime Day 2023, we’re also saying adieu to Video Game Fashion Week, Polygon’s annual tradition of celebrating all of the fabulous and weird ways gaming and glamour collide.
