Hey, so let me just ramble a bit about this new Nintendo store popping up in San Francisco. Honestly, I wasn’t even planning to think about this today, but here we are. It’s a pretty big deal because, get this, they’re offering this customization thing for the Nintendo Switch OLED—stuff you could only find in Japan before. Weird, right? Like, why New York didn’t get this, I have no clue. Anyway, now you can mess around with the colors of your Joy-Cons and dock. No extra cost, which is sweet since everything’s usually priced like it’s dipped in gold these days.
Oh, and speaking of dips, Nintendo’s been busy, spreading out like they’re buttering toast. They’re opening theme parks with Universal and, yeah, that Mario movie was a smash hit. Sequel and a Zelda movie in the works too. Honestly, who knew plumbers and elves could rule Hollywood?
So, back to the store—Bay Area folks are probably buzzing right now. It’s the first US Nintendo store besides New York, which is kinda hard to believe. And about that customization thing in the video? It’s down now, but you could pick between black and white docks. I wonder if someone goofed, or what’s up with pulling the vid. But let’s not dwell.
Okay, here’s where it gets a bit fancy. They’re also stocking some exclusive merch, like mini versions of those giant Nintendo characters you’d see around. More like collectible art pieces than toys, really. But here’s the catch: you gotta book a spot first. Oh joy. Potential chaos averted, I guess. Massive lines are probably not on anyone’s wish list.
And who knows? Maybe when that new Switch 2 drops, they’ll pull the same stunt with the customization. But if you’re thinking of snagging an OLED, or just waiting for the next big thing, maybe a visit should be on your to-do list. I mean, it’s all good if you just want to window-shop too. Anyway—where was I? Oh yeah, that’s about the gist. Cool store, fun colors, maybe some art. Check it out if you’re nearby!
