Nintendo Live Sydney Products And Merch Will Be Offered Online As Nintendo Apologies For High Demand

Nintendo has emailed attendees of Nintendo Live Sydney with an email thanking them for attending the event but also acknowledging that it wasn’t all smooth sailing with there being a heavy amount of lines, particularly the merch section.

Within this email (as obtained by Vooks), it says that it plans to off every item that was available at the My Nintendo Store available online including the Nintendo Live 2024 Sydney merch at store.nintendo.com.au at a later date.

There were a number of cute plushies from the likes of Elephant Mario to a number of Pikmin plushies that hadn’t been available in Australia outside of this event, so it’s good to see these coming to Australia more widely. You can see the full list of items here or below:

The email reads:

“THANK YOU FOR JOINING US FOR NINTENDO LIVE 2024 SYDNEY

We hope you had fun playing games together, meeting some of your favourite Nintendo characters as well as Mario Ambassador, Charles Martinet, and enjoyed the live stage events.

Across both event days, we experienced an unexpectedly high demand for the My Nintendo Store, and we regret that our planning and store management at the event was not sufficient to meet this demand. We apologise if you had a negative experience as a result of this, and promise that we will make improvements for future events.

We understand that not everyone was able to shop the My Nintendo Store due to this demand and we are working to make every item that was available at the My Nintendo Store, including Nintendo Live 2024 SYDNEY event-themed items, available for order online* at store.nintendo.com.au

These preparations will take some time, however as an attendee of Nintendo Live 2024 SYDNEY, you will be the first to know when these items are available. Please keep an eye on your inbox for further details in the near future.”
