Nintendo New York

Nintendo World is an official store of Nintendo located in New York City at the Rockefeller Center. The store was opened on May 14, 2005. Visitors can purchase Mario and Nintendo merchandise. Additionally, visitors can play Mario games on the Nintendo World's Nintendo 3DSs and Wii Us.

Upstairs, there is a museum section, though the items on show often change. The second floor also contains a Pokémon section, where a lot of Pokémon plush toys are sold.



Nintendo World often sells exclusive or rare Nintendo items, as it is the only official Nintendo store. They also give out special Nintendo shopping bags at checkout, with various character illustrations on them. The store often changes its décor, based on what games have recently been released.
