It’s been announced that the Vans x Nintendo collection will launch this Friday in the United States. At other international retailers, the footwear will be available throughout the month.

Here’s what you can look forward to in terms of shoes:

The Vans x Nintendo Classic footwear assortment kicks off with four variations of the Authentic silhouette. Travel to the Mushroom Kingdom for the first colorway, the Super Mario Bros. Tie-Dye, which showcases an all-over character print of Mario alongside several “power-ups” and the villainous Goomba over an 8-bit tie-dye pattern. A second color-up features the original damsel in distress, Princess Peach, awaiting rescue from her brave hero. Duck Hunt comes to life atop a digi-camo backdrop featuring the hunting dog and flying duck, and the final execution of the Authentic is an ode to Donkey Kong and incorporates imagery from its first level to present the title character in a unique floral arrangement. Vans’ iconic lace-free silhouette, the Classic Slip-On, appears in the sneaker lineup with graphics and quotes from The Legend of Zelda. A Sidestriped trio of the Sk8-Hi, Old Skool and Sk8-Hi Slim for women pay homage to the NES with prints and colors inspired by the console. Lace-up styles are trimmed with special details, including Nintendo game logos on the tongue label and NES controller lace caplets. For the greatest feature, kick up your heels to reveal Vans iconic waffle sole printed with ‘Game Over!’

Sneaker styles for youth and toddler fits will also be distributed at retailers. These include “patterns designed just for kids with characters from Mario Kart and Super Mario across the Sk8-Hi Zip, Classic Slip-on and Authentic.”

Interestingly, the Vans x Nintendo collaboration also extends into apparel and accessory items. Consumers can pick up tees, backpacks, bags, socks and hats “in prints that tie back to the Classic footwear.”

Following recent leaks, Activision has made the next entry in the Skylanders series official. Skylanders Imaginators will launch on October 16 for Wii U and other platforms. Unlike past years, there’s no sign of Wii and 3DS versions.

You can find the first Skylanders Imaginators below. We’ve also included the official announcement with more details after the break.

The Squid Sisters will be live in concert at Japan Expo in July. That’s not the only Nintendo-related event planned for the show, however.

Junichi Masuda, director of the Pokemon games, will have a Master Class on July 7 pertaining to the series’ 20th anniversary. That’s the only bit of information released thus far, but we should be hearing more in the coming weeks.

Lost Reavers has received a pretty big update. The game has been updated with a new level, weapons, events, costumes, and bug fixes. Today’s update is 1,340MB, so you may need to make some extra room for the extra content.

Thanks to Cameron and Dez for the tip.

Splatoon’s Squid Sisters have already seen two concerts in Japan. Nintendo’s now expanding their reach, as a new performance is set to be held at the Japan Expo in France on July 8.
