Tourists from all over the world are heading to Japan to take advantage of the weak yen, many of them are fans of Japanese subculture. Nintendo Store is one of the most popular places for these people, and it is crowded with people every day. There are many products in the store. Mario plush, Switch peripherals, and Gacha machines…But it’s difficult to see all the products in the crowd.

Yoshi’s Egg Tea pod & Cup
A pot and cup set in the shape of Yoshi’s egg. Although it is simple, it has a look that game fans will recognize at a glance. Comes with illustrated saucer and tea strainer.
Off course it is pottery, Please be careful not to break it when you take it home.
“FAMILY COMPUTER DISC SYSTEM” Card Case Collection
It is IC card case modeled after the Family Computer Disk System.
What is “FAMILY COMPUTER DISC SYSTEM”?
The Family Computer Disk System (Japanese name for NES), commonly shortened to the Famicom Disk System, or just Disk System, is a peripheral for Nintendo’s Family Computer home video game console, released only in Japan on February 21, 1986. It uses proprietary floppy disks called “Disk Cards” for cheaper data storage and it adds a new high-fidelity sound channel for supporting Disk System games(Wikipedia,Famicom Disk System).
Famicom Disk System was only released in japan, but this IC card case has enough 80’s details to satisfy you. The case can store “Suica” required to ride public transportation in Japan, numberless credit cards, etc.
Classic Mario Design T-Shirts
A T-shirt with an early Mario package design is a great souvenir of your trip to Japan. The good thing is that the old package design remains the same.
The lineup is
- SUPER MARIO BROS.
- SUPER MARIO BROS. 2 (Japanese name “SUPER MARIO USA“)
- SUPER MARIO BROS. 3
- UPER MARIO WORLD
The design of the box is also good.
Shoes Box from Splatoon Series
Storage box like shoe box from Splatoon Series. In the Splatoon series, each “gear” selected by the player has a brand name.
There are 5 types boxes, which are printed with the brand’s name just like real-life sneakers.Of course, it can also be used to store shoes. I usually store gaming supplies.
Nintendo Store is located in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto!
That’s all for 4 Off-the-Rader but Recommended Items From Nintendo Store. This shop is recommended for small children and anyone who loves Nintendo games. I recommend visiting when you come to Japan.
