Along with a firm release date of March 17, Nintendo will launch two Switch packages, like it did with Wii U in 2012.

Both SKUs include the Switch, docking station, left and right Joy-Con controllers, wrist strap, an AC adapter, and one HDMI cable. One SKU will include gray-colored Joy-Con peripherals, while the other will pack in neon blue and red Joy-Cons.

Nintendo's Pro Controller will be sold separately.
