Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller - Resident Evil Requiem

$100

Preorder at Best Buy Preorder at Nintendo

The first special-edition Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller has been revealed, and it's a surprising one. Nintendo is releasing a limited-edition Pro Controller themed around Resident Evil Requiem, the next mainline entry in Capcom's survival horror series. The Resident Evil Requiem Edition Pro Controller is available to preorder for $100 at Best Buy and the Nintendo Store. It launches alongside the game on February 27, 2026.

Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller - Resident Evil Requiem $100

The Resident Evil Requiem Edition of the official Switch 2 Pro Controller is the same shade of black as the standard model. Where it differs is the front faceplate has a fictional newspaper clipping published in Raccoon City.

You can see the words "Resident Evil" running along the top of the controller and "Requiem" right below it. Excerpts from articles published in the paper and photographs of the bleak situation on the ground are also pictured. It's a pretty cool design, even if it is somewhat understated due to the lack of contrasting colors.

The Resident Evil Requiem Edition is 10 bucks more than the standard Switch 2 Pro Controller, which is a fairly common price bump for a themed first-party controller.

Switch 2 owners can preorder two different physical editions of Requiem, both of which are limited edition and cost $90. The Resident Evil Generation Pack comes with Requiem, Resident Evil Village Gold Edition, and Resident Evil 7 Gold Edition. The Resident Evil Deluxe Edition comes with a steelbook case, lenticular card, and a bunch of digital content. Check out GameSpot's Resident Evil Requiem preorder guide for more details.

Nintendo will also release a Switch 2 Amiibo for Requiem's protagonist Grace Ashcroft. We don't know what the figure looks like or its price, but Street Fighter 6 Amiibo retail for $40, so that seems like a distinct possibility for the Grace Ashcroft Amiibo. Unfortunately, the Amiibo won't be available at launch, and it currently has a vague Summer 2026 launch window.

The age of AI has barely begun, but there are some in the industry who see it as an absolute necessity for the future. Electronic Arts, for example, has reportedly instructed its employees to treat AI as "thought partners" in every aspect of game creation. However, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick isn't buying into the hype, and he doesn't believe AI will ever be able to compete with Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto games.

"Let's say there were no constraints [on AI]," said Zelnick during an appearance on CNBC. "Could we push a button tomorrow and create an equivalent to the Grand Theft Auto marketing plan? The answer is no. A, you can't do that yet, and B, I am of the view that you wouldn't end up with anything very good. You end up with something pretty derivative."

Zelnick went on to explain that AI can't innovate, because it's "backward-looking" by design and its predictive models are built on things that have already been created, rather than anything new.

TOMY Super Mario: Yoshi Wind-Up Mystery Box (12-Pack)

$24.41

See at Amazon

With the holiday season fast approaching, now is a good time to start grabbing a few affordable stocking stuffers or party favors. And if you have a Super Mario fan on your shopping list, you may want to check out this mystery box of Yoshi toys before Amazon sells out. Amazon is selling a 12-pack of TOMY Yoshi Wind-Up Figures--with the box included--for only $24.41.

This deal is shipped and sold by Amazon, and we were frankly a bit surprised to see it. Super Mario mystery capsules like these tend to sell for $5 or $6 each in stores, and sellers on eBay are asking for more for these specific Yoshi toys. But if you buy the box from Amazon, you're only paying $2.03 per Yoshi.

TOMY Super Mario: Yoshi Wind-Up Mystery Box (12-Pack) $24.41

Inspired by Japanese Gashapon machines, these egg-shaped capsules each hold one wind-up Yoshi. There are six colors in the collection: blue, red, purple, yellow, green, and pink.

You can wind them up and watch them walk across a flat surface or go head-to-head and race. The box the capsules are dispensed from is pretty cool, too.

Blind box toys are a staple in checkout lanes at grocery and department stores. If you're a parent, you have probably either purchased an overpriced capsule toy or explained to your child why you aren't paying $6 for a little plastic figure. But $2 Mario figures? That's far more reasonable.

See at Amazon

Amazon also has a 6-pack of 1.25-inch figures from The Super Mario Bros. Movie for $21. These aren't blind boxes, but they have similar appeal as small figures in Super Mario-themed Question Block containers. Unfortunately, you won't get Yoshi, because he wasn't in the movie.
