The blue piece has the words \u201cCamellia\u201d and \u201cFor ladies only\u201d written on it in Japanese, while the red piece reads \u201cRose\u201d and \u201cFor nobles only.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamespark.jp\/article\/2023\/10\/25\/135321.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GameSpark<\/a>, the attachments can be affixed to the Joy-Con directly, in the same way as Joy-Con straps. In a practical sense, the easy-to-grip attachment is very useful for the game, given the nature of the movements you have to make while playing it, but the all too familiar melee-weapon shape is definitely the most iconic thing about it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u304a\u30a2\u30e1\u30ea\u30ab\u30f3\u30b9\u30bf\u30a4\u30eb\u3067\u3059\u306d\u3001\u308f\u304b\u308a\u307e\u3059 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ficjn4aQ7g\">pic.twitter.com\/ficjn4aQ7g<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u30d1\u30a4\u30ed\u30f3 (@PYLON_GT) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PYLON_GT\/status\/1716802810514473467?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 24, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><font size=\"2\"><strong>Post translation:<\/strong> So we\u2019re going American style.
