You Can Now Preorder the Hori Nintendo Switch 2 Piranha Plant Camera for $59.99

Starting April 24, you can place a preorder for the officially licensed Hori Nintendo Switch 2 Piranha Plant Camera at Target for $59.99. This whimsical and entertaining accessory is crafted to complement the new GameChat feature on the Nintendo Switch 2, enabling video chats with as many as 12 friends during gaming or streaming sessions.

The Piranha Plant Camera presents a fun alternative to the official Nintendo Switch 2 Camera, which is sold separately. Although the standard camera is priced a bit cheaper, the Hori variant injects some personality into your gaming setup—because who wouldn’t want a Piranha Plant adorning their console?

This camera connects effortlessly to your Switch 2 through USB and works well in all three play modes: TV mode, tabletop mode, and handheld mode. Just connect it and adjust for the optimal angle, whether you’re conversing or utilizing in-game camera functions. It may be a tad bulkier than the conventional model, but that’s all part of its appeal.

If you intend to use GameChat, remember that a Nintendo Switch Online membership is necessary. Individual plans commence at $19.99 per year, while the Online + Expansion Pack tier is available for $49.99 annually. Family plans can also be obtained at $34.99 and $79.99, respectively.

In addition to chatting, the camera will be compatible with select games such as Mario Kart World and Super Mario Party Jamboree + Jamboree TV, with more titles anticipated in the future.

The Hori Piranha Plant Camera is also available at Best Buy, although it is currently out of stock there, and unavailable at Walmart. If you’re eager to elevate your Switch 2 experience and don’t mind splurging a little for a playful design, this camera might be a great addition to your cart.
