PowerA has announced the official release of the Ditto Advantage Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch 2, bringing the popular Pokémon to a licensed gamepad arriving on October 20 for $50.99, projectn.com.br reported. The accessory features Hall Effect analog sticks designed to prevent stick drift, alongside motion controls and two programmable back buttons.
Gamepad delivers thirty hours of battery life
The gamepad includes a dedicated C button built specifically for launching GameChat on the upcoming hardware. Its internal rechargeable battery delivers up to 30 hours of continuous playtime on a single charge. PowerA includes a 3-meter USB-C cable in the box for wired play and power delivery.
While engineered with the Nintendo Switch 2 in mind, the controller maintains full backwards compatibility. Players can sync the accessory to the original Nintendo Switch, the Switch OLED model, and the portable Switch Lite.
Amazon lists device for pre-order
Amazon’s U.S. storefront currently lists the device for pre-order at $50.99 ahead of its October release date. Official distribution plans for Brazil remain unconfirmed by either Nintendo or PowerA. Local storefronts do not yet stock the item, leaving direct import as the primary acquisition route for regional collectors.
Alternative hardware choices exist for overseas fans seeking themed peripherals. Hori manufactures a competing Ditto-themed version of the Wireless HORIPAD Turbo designed for the Nintendo Switch 2 ecosystem within the United States market.
