Nintendo has announced a new limited-edition set of pink Joy-Cons to coincide with the upcoming launch of Princess Peach: Showtime!.

The pastel pink controllers will be made available across selected retailers and via the My Nintendo Store "for a limited time", although Nintendo doesn't say how long you'll be able to get your hands on them for.

Don't they look pretty?

As well as announcing the new Joy-Cons, Nintendo has also released a brand new trailer for Princess Peach: Showtime!.

The aptly-named Transformation Trailer shows off some of the costumes Peach will be able to wear throughout her adventure, as well as what abilities they'll bestow upon her.

First off, we get to see Ninja Peach sneaking up behind enemies and leaping nimbly between walls, after which Cowgirl Peach can be seen wrangling enemies and leaping across chasms on her horse.

Swordfighter Peach, as you'd expect, is a skilled combatant, while Detective Peach is all about sleuthing and gathering clues. Rounding things off are Patissiere Peach, who can cook up a storm, and Kung-Fu Peach, who has some pretty vicious combat abilities.

Princess Peach: Showtime! was originally announced to be heading to Nintendo Switch back in June last year.

Much like Super Mario Bros. 3Princess Peach: Showtime! is presented as a series of stage plays, although the gimmick is arguably much more pronounced this time around.

The various trailers for Princess Peach: Showtime! have given it a look somewhere between the Klonoa games, Paper Mario, and traditional Mario platformers, so we'll have to see what kind of adventure Peach has in store for us when the game launches.

You'll be able to check out Princess Peach: Showtime! when it releases exclusively for Nintendo Switch on March 22nd. Stay tuned for more info on this one and all other things Nintendo-related.
