Nintendo POP-UP STORE to open in Singapore at Jewel Changi Airport in November
The pop-up on level 4 will be the first in Southeast Asia, and will feature favourites like Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Animal Crossing, Splatoon and Pikmin.
Fans of Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Animal Crossing, Splatoon and Pikmin rejoice! The Nintendo POP-UP STORE is opening in Singapore from 17 November 2023 to 1 January 2024 at Changi Airport's Jewel.
For the first time in Southeast Asia, fans of the beloved Nintendo series will be able to purchase special featured merchandise that were previously only available in Japan in Nintendo's Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto stores. But that's not all, as Nintendo will also have a taste of Singapore for those who pop up at the pop-up.
To celebrate the store on level 4 at Jewel, six types of exclusively designed postcards will also be available for shoppers.
Those who spend S$80 of more in a single transaction at the store will receive one of these limited-edition Singapore Special postcards, while stocks last.
These feature iconic Singapore landmarks, such as the Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and the Old Hill Street Police Station (currently home to Singapore's Ministry of Communications and Information).
One key highlight of the product line-up will be a special illustration featuring selected characters from the various series, with the iconic Mario himself leading the way. There's also a colourful array of items available for purchase, with more being unveiled closer to the opening date.
There will also be a Nintendo Account check-in sticker campaign at the venue, where account holders can collect special stickers featuring classic characters from the various featured series.
Each person can check in once a day, and will receive one sticker from the 18 designs available, issued at random.
Fans will have to log in to their registered accounts and check-in to the store by displaying the QR code located at the store's entrance, and will received the sticker upon verification by the staff.
In addition, Jewel Changi Airport will also be running a collaboration campaign called Pipe Around The World, which, as you might have guessed, involves Super Mario.
Details of the campaign were not available at press time, but we're sure more will be popping up as we inch closer to the opening date of the Nintendo POP-UP STORE.
