Hobonichi recently set up new Mother shops in Japan based on the EarthBound series. A location previously opened in Osaka for a couple of weeks, followed by another in Tokyo, which will close on December 27.

If you’re an EarthBound series, you’ll find that these shops are almost like treasure troves. There’s a slew of merchandise to pick up such as Mother: The Complete Scripts, plushies, jewelry, and more.

Many fans – especially ones in the west – probably won’t be able to make it to these limited-time shops. However, Twitter user masato_furuya did share a whole bunch of photos a few days ago. We’ve rounded them up below.

It wouldn’t be a holiday without some network overload, which is what seems to taking place with the Switch eShop at the moment. Nintendo says that it is “experiencing difficulties with our network services”.

The Switch eShop may take a few attempts to load, or it may not start up at all. We’ve also seen reports of users being unable to download games. If you make a purchase and it’s not appearing on the home menu, you can rest easy knowing that you’re not alone and it’s a temporary problem.

Nintendo is likely on the case and should be working on any and all issues. Hopefully it’ll all be fixed before too long.
