Description

Nintendo has unveiled a new line of Splatoon 3-themed merchandise in the form of collectible shoe boxes, available exclusively through the Japanese My Nintendo Store and official Nintendo retail locations in Tokyo and Osaka.

This latest offering provides fans with a creative way to celebrate their favorite Nintendo Switch game with real-world items modeled after recognizable in-game locker decorations found in the bustling city of Splatsville within Splatoon 3. The Splatoon 3 shoe boxes are priced at 880 yen (approximately £5 or $6 USD) and feature four distinct designs, each showcasing logos from some of the game's most iconic gear and weapon brands, including Tentatek, Zink, and Inkline.

These cardboard boxes arrive flat-packed for easy shipping and measure 33 cm in width, 11 cm in height, and 22.5 cm in depth once assembled.

Nintendo notes that while the boxes are ideal for storing smaller items or organizing video game collections, their dimensions may not accommodate larger footwear styles such as hiking boots.

However, they are well-suited for securing Nintendo Switch, Nintendo DS, 3DS, or even Game Boy Advance game boxes, making them both functional and collectible for Nintendo fans. Since their release, the Splatoon 3 shoe boxes have attracted attention within the Nintendo community for their unique design and direct reference to in-game assets.

The boxes reaffirm Nintendo's ongoing commitment to high-quality, themed merchandise that resonates with its dedicated fanbase.

As of now, the collection is available exclusively to customers in Japan, both through the official My Nintendo Store website and at physical Nintendo Store locations in Tokyo and Osaka.

There has been no announcement regarding international availability for these Splatoon 3 collectibles. Splatoon 3, developed by Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch, debuted globally on September 9, 2022, and has continued to be supported with regular in-game updates and community-driven events.

The title has enjoyed strong sales performance, particularly in Japan, where it quickly became one of the best-selling games on the platform. Fans interested in adding the Splatoon 3 shoe box merchandise to their collections should act quickly, as availability may be limited due to regional exclusivity and high demand.

For further details, official images, and purchasing information, visit the Japanese My Nintendo Store or inquire at Nintendo Tokyo and Nintendo Osaka retail locations.
