Although the campaign has been live since August, a new wave of goodies are coming next week on 24th September 2024, closer to the release of the game. As highlighted by Siliconera, Zelda fans will be able to claim "a variety of clear files" featuring the characters from the new game when they purchase specific snack products.
Along with this, fans with the My Nintendo app can also use GPS check-in to score a free Echoes of Wisdom background image for their phone. This offer is valid until 7th October 2024.
As for the bag and tumbler, these items are available to pre-order on the My Nintendo Store in Japan. The sticker sheet is available with download cards of the game, physical orders come with a poster, and there's a sweepstakes for three Zelda-themed puzzles that will be given out to 115 people. 15 fans can also win a Master Sword Proplica.
You can see where to pre-order Echoes of Wisdom in our guide on Nintendo Life. We've also gone hands-on with the game:

I hope 7-11 can do the slurpee cup promotion a la Links Awakening. That’d be a great continuity
I wish y’all would show images for those of us that don’t use social media. Ah well here is your engagement comment.
@Ryu_Niiyama You don't use social media? How is that even possible? Reddit? Twitter? The ancient Facebook? The resurrected corpse Myspace?
Jokes aside. You should google it if you can't see any images. It's pretty cool. I won't spoil it for ya. Japan gets the best goodies.
Edit: Oh and about last time. I'm sorry my joke didn't land. In my head I was making a joke about how Xbox is just happy to have anyone on their platform, but sadly it didn't hit the way I intended.
Nintendo needs to team up with Tempur-Pedic with all these bed memes everywhere.
I wish our gas stations had the same respectablity as combenis. The best be can hope for is a weird flavored drink, and to not get Chlamydia from the toilets
@Zeebor15 Hah, now that got me.
I like that tumbler. .
I read the text, I see the images ... I must be dumb. What's a clear file?
I also cannot make sense of this sentence "You can get a clear file of your but certain sweets".
Maybe it's still too early, gonna play some Tetris 99 to wake my brains up, and I'll try again later ...
@Yalloo
"You can get a clear file of your but certain sweets."
That is driving me mad, too! 😆 I guess that a "clear file" is stationary, like a "pocket". The article itself mentions "a variety of clear files featuring the characters from the new game", which makes more sense. I guess that "certain sweets" is some kind of crazy typo, but I can't imagine what it should be! Argh!!! 😆
@Yalloo As @Ooyah said it seems that "clear files" are those transparent sleeves used to store documents etc., but the wrong wording of the source certainly doesn't help making it clear (pun intended)!
The longer this promotion goes on, the more I question the decision to have that image of Zelda stretching with her staff/wandy thing plastered over everything. I just don't find it aesthetically pleasing. All the fantastic art that exists within the Zelda development, and they think that image is doing it all justice? It's worse than the Link looking up over his shoulder that we got in Europe for Breath of the Wild.
@Ooyah @JohnnyMind Thanks guys! And nicely placed pun btw!
A "sleeve" makes more sense imo, I was a bit confused thinking of a save data file .. and how to actually get it into the Switch, etc ... but English is not my native language so it is what it is.
I've always dreamed of having a clear file of my but.
Jokes aside, I want that golden tumbler.
@calbeau I don't think that I dare to ask where the "certain sweets" come into that? 😆
@Yalloo @JohnnyMind It's the "certain sweets" which are getting to me. I just cannot imagine what was meant, or what this should have said... it's made even worse by the "but" right before!
@Ooyah Yeah, unfortunately the wording is so weird that I have no clue about the "sweets" either!
@Ooyah I so agree with you! And you'd think with all these people spending their days scrolling through all these social media that we could get an update 😮💨
Still I have to laugh ... "you can get a clear file off your butt" XD
@Ooyah They're either Hershey's Kisses or chocolate soft-serve.
@Ryu_Niiyama I've no social media either, but it still allows me to see the images.
@Djreisat on this article? If not then we aren’t talking about the same thing. I am talking about NL showing the images on the article (which is what I said in the comment you are responding to). I went to another site that reported it (two in fact, so what I am asking for is not impossible and NL used to do it) and found pics.

@Ryu_Niiyama hmmm maybe I misunderstood. I don't or haven't had Twitter or any other social media, but embedded in the article I do see the post/images.
@Djreisat interesting. May be a browser difference as I am on my phone. All I can see is a link to twitter or x or whatever it’s called now and a quote from the tweet in NL’s quote styling. There are images in the article but not of the merch and not from the tweet. Just promo images from the game itself.
I was like cool Lawson is an outdoorsman gear and gun store near where I live. I thought yes Zelda is going to get a gun! Then I read it was a convenience store chain in Japan then I just thought of her summoning a slushy machine.
I preordered a physical copy. I suspect this will not have a huge print run given it’s somewhat of a spinoff and late in the Switch life-cycle
Traveling to Japan early November. Don't I will, but hopefully I can still find that tumbler.
@2Ryu_Niiyama I don't have X/Twitter neither and I can click on the images and seem them in the respective page without user/login. Maybe not in your region or something, but try.
