It seems bizarre that Nintendo hasn’t released an official Nintendo Switch stylus in the almost three years that the console has been available. Sure, touchscreen-focused games aren’t available in excess on Switch, but one of Nintendo’s biggest games,Super Mario Maker 2, is certainly better with a stylus. Well, Nintendo is changing its tune – at least in the UK. Nintendo is nowselling an official Switch stylus. Unfortunately, the affordable £ 6. (stylus (just over $ 9 USD) is only currently available at Nintendo’s UK store.

This is the second time North American Switch owners are missing out on a Nintendo-branded stylus. Though not released for individual purchase, physical pre-orders for Super Mario Maker 2 included aMario-themed stylusin Japan and the UK.
While it would be nice to see Nintendo release a stylus for its US audience, you can always buy a third-party stylus that will work just fine. The new Nintendo stylus is rather rote as styluses go. I purchased theAmazonBasics universal stylus [{“name”:”host”,”value”:”https://secure-us.imrworldwide.com/cgi-bin/m?”},{“name”:”scCI”,”value”:”us-200330″},{“name”:”scC6″,”value”:”vc,c01″}] for $ 8 when Super Mario Maker 2 launched and have zero complaints. But if you’re holding out for one emblazoned with the official Nintendo logo, it appears the waiting game will continue.
