We hear you — it's April. Why are we talking about the Holiday season now? Honestly, some days, it still feels cold enough to be the winter season. Some people also get planning for the season very early. And the Holidays fill most people with joy, right?
Well, we're bringing you some Nintendo-themed Holiday joy this Spring. Hallmark — the greeting cards company — is releasing a range of tree ornaments for a handful of Nintendo franchises.
We first spotted one of these on Zelda fan site Zelda Universe, which shared an extremely detailed The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild tree ornament from Hallmark of Link wearing his blue tunic and aiming his traveller bow. But a deep dive into Hallmark's website revealed that it's more than just Zelda getting the ornament treatment, as there are some lovely Mario and Animal Crossing ones too.
Here's a look at all of the video game-themed Holiday goodies we could find on Hallmark's website:
The Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis systems also light up and make sounds, which make them must-haves in our books.
Hallmark has actually been selling Nintendo and video game-themed ornaments for a few years now, and the SNES has definitely been seen before. Here's last year's selection, as shared by IGN.
If you're really desperate to get started on planning for the Holiday season, you can pre-order these ornaments now, and they'll get to you right on time as they release on 8th October. Prices range from $9.99 to $22.99.
Will you be getting some of these? And are we mad for talking about the Holidays now? Sound off below.

I was worried about how long I had slept for a moment there.
I wish so much we could get these in UK!!!!!!
Just in time for Christmas...oh wait a minute?!
@Henmii you'd would either be really early for Christmas or super late... depending on how you look at things.
Lol Sonic is practically a Nintendo character now
The plain Mario, Yoshi and NES controller ornament are also on the Hallmark UK website. It's a shame these aren't really Christmas themed though.
You don't have to put these in christmass trees, you can put them in any tree!
It looks cute, but i prefer my Chibi Boxer characters for decorative things.
I've been collecting the micro console ornaments, they're well done
@Natsura
Philosophy innit?
I want that Yoshi and Eevee...
Well here in Southern Ontario we just got a blanket of snow so it literally looks more like Christmas then Spring lol These do look nice though.
These really are amazing. It makes all their bad chick flicks with the same plot that my mom watches every week worth it.
@Yosher
The yoshi and the eevee,
In April they are both shown,
Of all ornaments that look good,
The yoshi bears the Peachette crown
@Franklin Now why do you have to go and put that image in my head! Does not compute with the festive spirit aaaaaaaaaaah
