What’s on your Christmas wishlist this year? Is it a pony? A new vacuum cleaner? World peace? A Nintendo Switch (OLED Model) Console Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Edition With Nintendo Switch Dock (Special Design)? It’s gotta be the last one, right? You’re here on Nintendo Life, and the one thing we have in common is that we all want the Nintendo Switch (OLED Model) Console Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Edition With Nintendo Switch Dock (Special Design)!

However, if your Winter Wishlists are remarkably un-Nintendo this year, and you live in North America, then you could be in luck. Nintendo representatives will be travelling to 15 malls across the USA to bring Nintendo-flavoured holiday tidings to everyone, and ensuring that the House of Mario makes it under your tree this year. Or else.

Visitors to the Wishlist Wonderland will have the opportunity to play demos of “select Nintendo Switch games”, which includes Splatoon 3, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, the new Pokémon Scarlet & Violet games, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Minecraft, TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Alongside demos, there will also be an interactive display that lets people learn about games, offers, and giveaways, plus the chance to earn My Nintendo points by checking in.

The aim of these events is to introduce a little more Nintendo into the wishlists of shoppers, presumably instead of all the boring things they thought they wanted.
