Nintendo Celebrates Heritage with New Hanafuda-Inspired Collection
Global game company Nintendo recently launched a new hanafuda-inspired collection, offering a variety of pieces inspired by the popular Japanese playing card game. Originally, Nintendo started off making hanafuda cards back in 1889, so this collection serves as a full-circle moment for the iconic game company.
The hanafuda line is decorated with the same symbols and motifs found across the deck, featuring iconic characters like Mario, Yoshi, Bowser, and Princess Peach on multiple items to reference Nintendo's current work.
The line includes everything from towels and glasses to shirts and bags, allowing consumers to create a cohesive outfit. The products will be sold at Nintendo's locations in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, with a worldwide release currently not planned.
