Hi there, is it possible to get older badges from Collectable badge center like the kirby gameboy advance sprites? Thanks so much, you’re one of my favorite tumblrs 🙂

Hi there. What Nintendo tend to do is rotate the badges so every now and then older badges return. It’s updated everyday from 04:00 am JST so check regularly and get your ¥90/¥180/¥720 ready!

Hi! I saw your post on the Giant Whisper plush, and was wondering if you knew anywhere to find it online? Or, if it has a certain name that would make it easy to search for? Sorry for the trouble! I’d really love to be able to find it! Thanks! 😀

Hi there, I’m unsure whether this is the exact one (it only says 31 cm!) but there’s one listed here!

That’s an excellent idea! I’ll add it to today’s news update and then reblog this weekend when there’s less news and it should remain towards the top of the page for a couple of days!
