In an exciting development for Nintendo Switch enthusiasts, leading gaming accessories maker Turtle Beach Corporation and Performance Designed Products LLC (PDP) have announced the launch of a new line of glow-in-the-dark controllers and a travel case for the Nintendo Switch family of systems. This innovative collection brings a touch of luminescent magic to gaming, offering both style and functionality for players of all ages.
The REMATCH GLOW Wireless Controllers: A Radiant Gaming Experience
At the heart of this release are the new REMATCH GLOW Wireless Controllers, featuring three distinct designs: Boo Hoo, Grand Prix Mario, and Blackout Bowser. These controllers are not just visually striking; they’re packed with features that enhance the gaming experience on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, and Nintendo Switch – OLED Model systems.
What sets these controllers apart is their unique glow-in-the-dark design. After exposure to light, these controllers illuminate, adding an extra layer of excitement to gaming sessions, especially in low-light environments. This feature is particularly appealing for fans of the Mario franchise, as the controllers showcase rare designs from beloved games featuring the iconic plumber and his associates.
But the REMATCH GLOW controllers aren’t just about looks. They boast an impressive 40-hour battery life, ensuring that gamers can enjoy extended play sessions without worrying about running out of power. This long-lasting battery is a significant advantage for those who like to immerse themselves in lengthy gaming marathons or for households where the controller is shared among multiple users.
The controllers also feature built-in motion controls, allowing players to take full advantage of games that utilize this technology. With a 30-foot low-latency wireless range, gamers have the freedom to play comfortably from a distance without experiencing lag or disconnection issues.
For those who like to customize their gaming experience, the REMATCH GLOW Wireless Controllers offer dual programmable back buttons. This feature allows players to map certain functions to more easily accessible locations, potentially giving them an edge in competitive games or simply making certain actions more comfortable to perform.
The Boo Hoo Travel Case Plus GLOW: Protecting Your Console in Style
Complementing the controllers is the new Boo Hoo Travel Case Plus GLOW for Nintendo Switch. This case features the fan-favorite ghost character from the Mario series and, like the controllers, it also glows in the dark. The travel case offers both protection and style for gamers on the go, ensuring that their Nintendo Switch is safely housed while also serving as a unique collectible item.
Availability and Pricing
The REMATCH GLOW Wireless Controllers are officially licensed by Nintendo, adding an extra layer of quality assurance for consumers. They are available for purchase from www.pdp.com and participating retailers at a price point of $54.99/£49.99/€59.99 MSRP.
The Boo Hoo Travel Case Plus GLOW has different release dates depending on the region. It’s already available in the UK and EU markets. For U.S. customers, the case will launch on October 28, 2024, with a price tag of $19.99/£16.99/€19.99 MSRP.
