For many Singaporeans, the exclusive merch in Nintendo stores in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto may seem out of reach. However, a glimmer of hope has arrived in the form of a Nintendo Pop-Up Store at Jewel Changi Airport.

You can finally check out the buzz tomorrow (17 Nov) when the store officially opens, till its last day on 1 Jan 2024.

The store, the first of its kind in Southeast Asia (SEA), contains exclusive merch from various popular games like ‘Super Mario’ and ‘Animal Crossing’.

In line with the pop-up, Jewel Changi Airport is also hosting a special ‘Pipe Around the World at Jewel’ Mario-themed event, where you can find photo ops and score unique merch for free.

Previously, fans of Nintendo’s various popular games could only dream of getting their hands on exclusive merch from stores in Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto in Japan.

But all that changes tomorrow, when SEA’s first Nintendo Pop-Up Store opens at Jewel Changi Airport.

Finally, fans can get their hands on a wide array of merchandise, including those of iconic characters like Mario, Yoshi, and Luigi.

The store also offers adorable merch from the ever-popular ‘Animal Crossing’ games.

Or perhaps the famed Mystery Block with its question mark will catch your fancy?

Merch from video games like ‘The Legend of Zelda’, ‘Splatoon’ and ‘Pikmin’ will be available too, for gamers who live and breathe the famous titles.

Pop-Up Store open daily till 1 Jan 2024

The Pop-Up Store also sells more all-encompassing Nintendo brand merch, such as T-shirts bearing the brand’s logo or characters from various franchises.

Besides merchandise, customers can get their Nintendo Switch essentials like consoles and games such as ‘Super Mario Bros. Wonder’, ‘The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’, and ‘Pikmin 4’ at the store.
