They came out with it so late and there was absolutely no notification other than a Twitter post. I doubt it'll make them much money with how little they seem to care about marketing ACNH. I've already preordered my game and bought a Switch a few days ago so the timing was extremely irritating.
AC:NH Special Edition Switch!!!
- Thread starter tajikey
- Start date
Depending on where you bought the switch, you could return it. But I do agree with you, there should have been news released regarding the limited edition during the holidays when mass amounts of people were buying the switch as gifts.
My switch is the first edition bought the same year the switch was first released so I've gotten a lot of play time on it. I realllyyyy want this one though so my options will be:
1) Sell my current one to buy the new edition with better battery
2) Gift my current one to niece/nephew with the approval of my sister
3) Keep my current one to have an additional save file to do events and item storage as I did with ACNL.

I loev it! And I'm really glad it's a regular switch insead of a switch lite. But it makes more sense to me to have something that can be portable and still connect to the tv. I think the pastel colors look really good on the switch, and the design on the back is adorable!

I bought a switch back in july so no need for a new onr. Also I don't need a special design. It doesn't change the game or the fun I have 
But I am happy for everyone who wanted an ac endition!

I'm sooo glad I decided to wait before I bought a Switch, it's perfect!
I really like the plain color scheme, it goes well with the merch from Nintendo Tokyo.
And I like that it's plain, not just like some stickers slapped on it. Only thing I'm iffy on is the dock (I wish it was more of a design rather than just the characters) and I wish the buttons were white but I still love it and will get it.
Only downside is that in Japan it comes out on March 20th with the game bundled. I would've preferred it to come out a week early so that I'd be able to download the game at midnight... There isn't much for midnight releases or events for stores (if there is anything it's very low-key, nothing too exciting for the most part) so I wouldn't be missing out on that anyways,

I love the joycon colours and the case so I might get those if I can find them separately. I can live without the switch itself though which is good because I already have a switch it's cute but I think I would have preferred a plain island with a palm tree over the Nook squad? Totally just my personal tastes though

Aren?t you (from where I live) 13 hrs ahead? right now at the time of the post (1:45pm) it should almost be 4 am there, meaning at 10am on March 19 it will be midnight on March 20th, couldn?t you download it then?

Hopefully that's the case in the UK, too. Not especially fond of special-edition consoles as I prefer the generic look, but those joy-cons are gorgeous with the two-tone look.
I saw that the Dock will also be available seperately in Japan as well? You could legit put together your own AC console, minus the embossed design on the back of the main unit.
That's no whale tail. That's a mermaid!
They'll sing songs and bring you rare sea shells and sunken pirate treasure if you befriend them.

I'm not sure if trade-ins take into account special editions. You'd get more selling it on its own than trading into a store most likely.
