A whole new wave of Splatoon merchandise has appeared on the Japanese My Nintendo Store and at Nintendo TOKYO today, and yes, we're going to sit here and sulk about it for the rest of the day.
Nintendo's Japanese shops don't ship worldwide, meaning you'll need to have a friend living in Japan or take to the likes of eBay to secure any of these items, but we thought you might get a kick out of checking it all out anyway.
The merch is part of a new 'Ink You Up' line consisting of cushions, hats, sandals, hoodies, drink bottles, shirts, shorts, and even storage solutions designed to look like empty shoe boxes. You can see the full range here, but here are some of our favourite pieces:
That's not all, though, because there are also these delightful cookie and candy items. We're not particularly fussed about the food (well, OK, those cookies would get eaten immediately), but what we'd really like is those quirky tins.
Nintendo, if you're reading, we'd love to see more official Nintendo stores in other countries around the world. If you could make that happen, that'd be great. Sincerely, everyone.

Once again, Japan gets all the nice stuff. Gotta move out there someday 🤔
You'll report on this but not stuff we can actually easily buy like:

Picked up one of the shoeboxes (way better design) at the Nintendo Store in Tokyo this year. They're awesome. As for this stuff here... it's ok. Needs more octoling.
A box with individually wrapped cookies. Only in Japan.
Candy Drop reminds me of Grave of the fireflies.
So cool! I really like the look of the shoe box storage thingy.
@Octane they do the same with cheese slices. Zero in terms of environmental awareness.
I just saw grave of the firefly's and they had a fruit drop can that looked just liked this.
The food items don't look very appealing...
"..., And We're Not Jealous At All"
⬆️ Indicates you're jealous.
@Pariz Cheese?! You should buy that fresh anyway, it lasts much longer that way.
That shoe box scared me for a sec, I thought they just dropped splatoon themed shoes
Wait, is there a way to get these over here? I bet there is a way, it would probably be outrageous price wise tho.
To be fair, a frozen yogurt place in Canada did get exclusive Splatoon-themed flavours for Splatoon back in 2015, so this isn't the first time we've run into this problem.
Ooh that's cute
ill be damned
im not jealous at all myself
@NathanTheAsian
Why did it have to be when I didn't know splatoon existed >_<
