It’s been quite a journey, but I’m thrilled to be back at Toy Fair New York, diving headfirst into the exciting world of licensed gaming merchandise. It’s been five years since my last visit, so you might be wondering what’s kept me away. Let’s just say there were some pretty significant global events that put a temporary pause on things for a while.
Walking the aisles this time, I was determined to soak in as much as possible, especially focusing on the vibrant array of Nintendo-themed goodies. But don’t worry if you’re loyal to other brands—there are plenty of non-Nintendo gems to uncover too. Keep an eye out for exciting finds featuring all your favorite gaming icons from Mario and Pokémon to Donkey Kong, Zelda, Fire Emblem, Splatoon, and more!
Just a quick heads-up, this feature is still a work in progress. We’re in the process of updating with fresh insights and highlights from different companies, so be sure to check back frequently as we continue to unveil more goodies from the show!
