NintendoSoup Store Policy: Essential Information for Pre-Orders, Payments, Shipping, and More
NintendoSoup Store has established itself as a key destination for Nintendo fans worldwide, offering an extensive range of exclusive Nintendo Switch games, merchandise, and collectibles.
The store caters to an international audience, providing transparent policies for pre-orders, payments, shipping, returns, and customer support.
Here is an in-depth overview of the current NintendoSoup Store policy, helping customers navigate their shopping experience with confidence.
Pre-Orders: Immediate Payment and Release Date Awareness
NintendoSoup Store periodically accepts pre-orders for upcoming Nintendo releases and collectible items.
Customers should note that payment—via credit card or debit card—is processed immediately upon checkout, regardless of whether the order contains pre-release or in-stock items.
Orders that combine currently available and pre-order products will be shipped together once all items are ready.
Should supply issues arise from manufacturers, NintendoSoup Store reserves the right to cancel affected pre-orders, providing full refunds for any canceled items.
The store may also adjust shipping dates should manufacturers experience delivery delays.
Payment Processing: Secure and Transparent
All payments on NintendoSoup Store are securely processed through Stripe, accommodating both credit and debit cards.
Consistent with industry standards, transactions are completed in United States Dollars (USD) at the time of order, whether the item is a pre-order, back-order, or currently available product.
Order Processing and Fulfillment Timelines
Typically, most products require between one to seven business days for processing before shipment.
Processing times are clearly displayed on product pages should they exceed the standard window, ensuring full transparency.
Global Shipping from Japan and Singapore
NintendoSoup Store ships worldwide from Japan and Singapore, utilizing EMS (Express Mail Service) for Japan-based dispatches and complimentary Airmail for items sent from Singapore.
EMS shipments generally reach customers within two to five business days and include insurance, packing, and a tracking number.
Singapore Airmail deliveries typically arrive within two to four weeks, also offering insurance, packing, and a tracking number.
Customers from regions such as Central and South America may experience extended delivery times due to customs and local postal procedures.
Import taxes, tariffs, and VAT remain the responsibility of the recipient.
Shipping Policies and Tracking Details
For each order, customers receive an email with the relevant tracking number, and are encouraged to monitor the delivery using tracking systems managed by Japan Post, Singapore Post, or domestic postal partners after customs clearance.
Note that certain destinations (including the United States, Canada, and France) may have limited tracking features for Airmail.
A comprehensive list of supported shipping destinations—spanning North America, Europe, Asia, Oceania, the Middle East, Africa, and beyond—is available on the store’s website.
Managing Orders and Shipping Addresses
Customers are allowed to update their shipping address prior to dispatch by contacting NintendoSoup Store.
Should an address change affect shipping costs, the fee difference must be settled before the address update is processed.
Once an order is shipped, no further modifications can be made.
Cancellations, Returns, and Refunds Details
NintendoSoup Store generally does not accept cancellations; however, exceptions may be evaluated based on individual order status, with approved cancellations incurring a 10% administrative fee.
The store retains the right to cancel orders if suppliers cannot fulfill them or if the order exceeds quantity limits—full or partial refunds, including shipping, are provided in such cases.
Returns are accepted only for defective or incorrect items, and customers must initiate contact within 10 business days of receiving a tracking number.
Full refunds or replacements are available for such cases, or if products become unavailable or are lost in transit.
Handling Uncollected Packages and Warranties
If a package is uncollected and returned, reshipping and potential reprocessing fees apply.
Warranty is not standard across all products and is specified only where applicable on the product page.
Customer Support and Policy Amendments
For all questions or issues regarding orders, customers can contact NintendoSoup Store’s support, quoting their order number for a faster resolution.
NintendoSoup Store reserves the right to update its policies without prior notice, underscoring the importance of reviewing the latest guidelines prior to making a purchase.
By maintaining clear, customer-centric policies and global reach, NintendoSoup Store continues to support the vibrant Nintendo community with reliable service and transparency, whether fans are shopping for exclusive Nintendo Switch games or official eShop merchandise.
