Nintendo and beverage company Amatouya have announced a special collaboration, bringing the vibrant world of Pikmin to fans in Kyushu with a unique bubble tea promotion.
Hosted at JR Kyushu’s Food Service Center, this limited-time event provides attendees with an exciting way to celebrate one of Nintendo’s beloved franchises, Pikmin.
The collaboration runs through June 30, 2025, offering collectors and fans plenty of time to experience the themed drinks and exclusive merchandise.
Pikmin, a strategic puzzle series known for its colorful plant-like characters and innovative gameplay, first launched on Nintendo platforms in 2001.
Since then, the franchise has garnered critical acclaim and a devoted fan base worldwide, with the most recent mainline title, Pikmin 4, released for Nintendo Switch to commercial and critical success.
Nintendo continues to engage audiences with creative promotions like this, further strengthening the connection between its iconic brands and the community.
As part of the collaboration, two distinct Pikmin-inspired bubble tea beverages are available for purchase.
Visitors can choose between the "Pikmin – Sweet Strawberry Milk Bubble Tea" priced at 700 yen and the classic "Pikmin – Milk Bubble Tea" for 600 yen.
Both options are served in themed cups featuring artwork inspired by the Pikmin series, immersing fans in the whimsical world they’ve come to love.
To make the experience even more memorable, each drink order includes a randomly selected Pikmin x JR Kyushu sticker collectible.
Three designs are available in total, allowing fans to seek out the complete set throughout the event’s duration.
These exclusive stickers highlight the special partnership and serve as a keepsake for Pikmin enthusiasts and collectors of Nintendo memorabilia alike.
A spokesperson for the event emphasized Nintendo’s commitment to expanding the Pikmin brand beyond video games.
"Through this partnership with Amatouya and JR Kyushu, Nintendo offers fans an opportunity to enjoy the charm of Pikmin in a new and delicious way, making this collaboration a must-visit for anyone traveling through Kyushu," the official stated.
Fans interested in the Pikmin bubble tea event are encouraged to visit JR Kyushu’s Food Service Center before June 30, 2025, while supplies last.
This exclusive campaign highlights Nintendo’s ongoing innovation in fan engagement and adds another creative chapter to the history of Pikmin-themed promotions worldwide.
