Welcome to MojoPlays, and in this video, we’re offering our picks for 5 nerdy gift ideas for Nintendo lovers.
Nobody is quite as loyal, obsessive and downright nerdy as a Nintendo fan - and we mean that in the best possible way. Nintendo fans are some of the most ardent gaming enthusiasts out there, with their love for the brand and all that is retro-infused, spanning decades of gaming. So, if you’re looking for some nerdy Nintendo gifts, we’ve got you covered. We’ve collaborated with our fam over at GetMojo, who have sifted through numerous website and consumer reviews to present their 5 recommended products.
Oh, and if you haven’t already heard of the GetMojo channel, you should go and check it out. They have a ton of other product-based lists and unboxings, covering everything from gaming gear to swimming pools. Link is in the description. Okay, first up.
We all know someone who is glued to their Switch, right? Well, this kit has a ton of cool add-ons and accessories that will help enhance your gaming experience. There are Joy-Con grips and controller mounts, a carry case, a portable playstand, a screen protector, and perhaps coolest of all, a charging dock. And this bundle is super affordable too. Even if your Switch-crazed friend has all of these, it never hurts to have spares!
Like, getting to play “Who’s that Pokemon” every day of December, and keeping the characters you find? Yes, please! This advent calendar features 16 character figures and 8 accessories, and will help you change things up from the usual advent routine. And there’s a nice mix of characters too, from the OGs to Pokemon from the Sword and Shield series. Hey, we’d happily accept this gift any time of year!
Of course, a lot of Nintendo’s games are rooted in retro appeal, but if you really want to relive some of Nintendo’s most iconic titles, you can conveniently do so with this mini reissue of the legendary NES. This console has 30 pre-loaded games and includes classic titles from the likes of the Mario, Zelda, Metroid and Castlevania franchises. And yes, you even get the old school controllers thrown in, too!
If you want to add a bit of drama to a room - and you’re a Zelda fan - then this light-up Master Sword light is an awesome pick. This 12-inch collectable makes for an excellent ambient night light, or simply a piece of Zelda eye-candy next to your gaming setup. We love that it’s touch-activated too, and can be powered via USB or batteries, so you can display it pretty much anywhere.
Okay, so there are an endless number of Nintendo-infused board games and card games, but we just couldn’t resist this fresh spin on the classic game of Monopoly. Essentially, this is just a Mario version of the game, featuring recognisable character tokens and property squares. The best thing about this fun version, however, are the unique gaming elements, which propel players to collect coins as they go around the board, use power ups to their advantage and defeat bosses along the way. Dibs on the Mario piece!
So which of these nerdy gifts should you go for? Well, for those that love nostalgia, the mini NES console is a solid pick. But if you want a more universal gift, something like the Switch accessory kit or Monopoly Gamer are awesome too.
Oh, and before you go, don't forget to check out the GetMojo YouTube channel for more product rankings and reviews.
