The addition gives fans a collectible option that can be redeemed through My Nintendo's Platinum Points catalog.
My Nintendo, Nintendo's loyalty and rewards platform that launched in 2016, offers both digital and physical items in exchange for Platinum and Gold Points.
The new Mario Tennis Fever wristband is listed as a physical reward and costs 600 Platinum Points to redeem.
Nintendo's product description highlights the item's sporty design and embroidered branding; Nintendo also notes the wristband is machine-washable.
Product details available on the My Nintendo rewards page list the wristband's fabric composition as 84% cotton, 14% polyester, and 3% elastane.
The listing specifies that a standard shipping charge applies to physical rewards, although shipping is waived for orders that meet the retailer's free-shipping threshold of $50 or more.
In journalistic terms: Nintendo's My Nintendo page describes the embroidered Mario Tennis Fever wristband as a sporty accessory suitable for wear both on and off the court, and confirms the item is machine-washable and made primarily of cotton with polyester and elastane for resilience and stretch.
For consumers looking to redeem the item, you must sign into your Nintendo Account, access the My Nintendo rewards section, and confirm redemption with the required 600 Platinum Points.
Physical rewards typically require you to provide a shipping address and pay any applicable delivery fees unless your order total qualifies for free shipping.
