Pikmin 4 is hitting the Switch, and Nintendo is celebrating in all sorts of ways. They’ve marketed this one more than any other entry before it, and they’re not done yet! Hot off of the My Nintendo shop is a new product: shoe charms.
Nintendo usually provides some stats or info for My Nintendo drops, but not this time! It’s pretty much as advertised: it’s a trio of shoe charms that you can put on footwear to stand out, and the set comes in a baggie with three characters (Red, Yellow, and Blue Pikmin). The charms themselves are rubber and have a small latch on the back. They’re a bit like Croc’s Jibbitz charms. It’ll cost you 500 Platinum Points for the privilege, plus shipping. I got them for my daughter!
The other reward is a kitchen towel set for 600 Platinum Points. This one has some info: “Add a touch of Pikmin decor to your home with this microfiber kitchen towel! Decorated with a pattern of Red Pikmin, Blue Pikmin, Yellow Pikmin, and Ice Pikmin along with touches of greenery, this absorbant towel makes for an easy and fun way to carry off minor spills.” It’s 24″ x 18″ and is made of microfiber.
As a reminder, if you want physical rewards, you can find our full Platinum Point guide here, which has been updated with details on weekly missions: bookmark it for when you need quick points for a reward. A handful of points is incredibly easy to get, as that’s basically just 15 minutes with Super Mario Run, or a quick sign-on to the 3DS or Wii U 3Shop. Also remember that any shipments are bundled together, so you can pay a flat rate for multiple items instead of paying it each time. Just know that items go out of stock on My Nintendo frequently, and some are never restocked
