In addition to announcing a new Brain Age, Nintendo is also launching an official stylus that can be used for the Nintendo Switch. It can be used in the commercial that revealed the new Brain Age game. This is not the first time there was an official stylus released. In the past, Nintendo has bundled Super Mario Maker 2 with the stylus as well but this time the stylus can be purchased separately.
Both of these new announcements are currently only confirmed for Japan. The stylus can be purchased for 864 yen which can mean a price of $9.99 if it makes it to the United States. It will launch on December 27, 2019, in Japan.
