Mario and Luigi Merch Promotes Brothership Release in Japan

Nintendo shared a new tweet on its official X account for its physical stores in Japan. It promotes bags and other merchandise themed after Mario and Luigi ahead of the global release of Mario and Luigi: Brothership in early November 2024.

The tweet is also available to view right below:

The items shown are not newly released, though. The Mario merchandise has been available since as early as 2021. The items themed after Luigi debuted more recently on June 27, 2024. Nintendo released the latter to coincide with the global launch of Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD on the same day.

Even though the goods have been available since long before the release of Mario and Luigi: Brothership, Nintendo still has ample stocks for most of them in its storefronts in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto. The metal clasp purses are available at 1,980 yen (~$13) each, while the tote bags are priced at 4,180 yen (~$27.45) for the regular size and 3,300 yen (~$21.70) for the mini version. Nintendo added, however, that the available stocks for Mario’s tote bags as of early November 2024 are not as many as Luigi’s versions.

Mario and Luigi: Brothership will be available on Nintendo Switch simultaneously worldwide on November 7, 2024. The game is also alternatively known in Japan with a slightly different title, which is Mario and Luigi RPG: Brothership.
