Nintendo is leaving no stone unturned when it comes to celebrating the day of love, Valentine’s Day. After revealing interesting cards based on Kirby and the Forgotten Land a few days ago, the company has now unveiled yet another offering to celebrate the special day.
Giving chocolates on the eve of Valentine’s Day is quite common across the globe; Nintendo decided to reveal its own customized Switch Joy-Con chocolates to the fans.
Happy Valentine's Day! Who would you share one of these with? Tag your player 2 and let them know. pic.twitter.com/khZ8GZGErM

Are the Nintendo Switch Joy-Con chocolates real?
Unfortunately, Nintendo also carefully mentioned a disclaimer while sharing the deliciously looking Switch chocolates. Under the official tweet showing the chocolates with dark chocolate buttons, the company provided a clarification shortly:
“*Please note that this is a fictional product and is not available for sale.”
There’s a chance that the Nintendo chocolates are unlikely to be real and are meant to be taken as a joke.

Coming onto the tweet itself, then the Mario company asked the users to choose their partner, or player 2, that they would like to share chocolates with. Plus, the tweet also asked people to tag the person to whom they would love to give the other half of the Switch Joy-Con chocolate.
As soon as the chocolate-filled tweet went live, Nintendo fans wasted no time in sharing their responses.
Sadly, some of the users felt a little heartbroken since they don’t have a partner to share the chocolates with. But then they also expressed their happiness as get to have it all by themselves. Also, a lot of people mentioned ‘drifting’.
Don't have a player 2 so looks like I'm gonna be experiencing 2x the drift

Well there'd be the left joy-choc in my left hand, and the right joy-choc in my right hand, so I can't see there'd be any spare to pass to anyone else, so I'd say they're both mine.
(i have no player 2 send me sympathy. or a freebie)

This sure is one way to make your relationship drift apart.

Few others did mention their loved ones with whom they wanted to eat the Nintendo Joy-Con chocolates.
