The Super Mario Bros. 35th anniversary wave 2 collectible pin set is now available through Nintendo’s website. You can claim it here. Technically this went up just under two hours ago, but we held off on posting this until the technical kinks of the site were worked out due to an overload of traffic – which seem to have been ironed out.

Japanese publication Nikkei posted a new interview this week with Shuntaro Furukawa, the global president of Nintendo. The two sides ended up discussing Switch’s life cycle as well as console development in general.
