The holidays are almost upon us! If you’re still panic-buying gifts, here’s a round-up of some of the finest Nintendo-themed stocking-fillers and Switch deals around right now, including a raft of soft, plushy Pokmon, light up mushrooms and the best value Nintendo Switch bundles.
First up, Pokmon fans will be delighted with this adorable grumpy Pikachu plushie – it’s small but beautifully detailed, and a nifty 25 per cent off to boot, putting the price down to 8.99. In addition, there are lots of other Pokmon available on that link, such as Rowlett and Popplio. The bulk, including Pikachu, also come with Prime delivery – meaning if you order ’em now, they’ll turn up in time for the big day.
There’s also a slightly bigger (but pricier – it comes in at 16.99) Ninetails that arrives before Christmas, and this lovely 12″ Snorlax for 19.99 at Argos, which is proving popular right now. Not to forget a cute and oh-so-blue 10″ Dratini for 15.29 over at Amazon.
There’s also an adorable light up Mario mushroom selling at Argos for 9.99 currently. Plus some retro-style Japanese Famicom prints – in flavours Metroid, Mario and Zelda, over at Zavvi for 9.99 each. On the wall front, we’ve also dug up a fabulous illuminated canvas with Mario and Yoshi riding the plains for 19.99. In addition, no home of any Zelda fan is complete without this fabulous Tri-Force mirror, currently 12.99 also at Zavvi.
We’re so in love with this big ol’ cuddly Bowser plushie from Build-A-Bear, which will set you back 27, and for extra can also be customised with a range of clothes both fanciful and disturbing. On the cheaper end of things, you can also nab two types of Yoshi and a carnivorous plant at Build-A-Bear, for 19.50 and 8 respectively.
Now, onto the consoles. The Nintendo Classic Mini SNES is hugely popular this year. You can pick one up at Currys for 69.99. Now, if you’re looking for an up-to-date console, the Nintendo Switch is the way to go. Although these are quite pricey, the best value deals around right now include Pokmon: Let’s Go in both Eevee and Pikachu versions for 289.99. Fans of the iconic beasties will also utterly adore this Nintendo 2DS XL emblazoned with Pikachu’s big yellow face.
Additionally, for the same price, you can get a Switch with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Finally, a Nintendo Switch with the legendary Zelda: Breath of the Wild or Super Smash Bros. will set you back 299.99.
For proud owners of a Nintendo Switch, you can’t go wrong with cranking up the storage with Micro SD cards – allowing ’em to play more games.
