Calling all Nintendo fans. Or anyone wanting some entertainment while they’re stuck at the airport.
Nintendo has rolled out a cluster of pop-up game lounges at four airports just in time for the spring break travel season,
The Nintendo Switch On The Go pop-up airport lounges are at Washington Dulles (IAD), Seattle-Tacoma International (SEA), O’Hare International (ORD) and Dallas Love Field (DAL) airports.
Each lounge gives travelers hands-on time with game demos using Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite.
According to Nintendo, anyone who visits one of these Switch On The Go lounges can order Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite systems and receive a free carrying case with their order.
Another promised bonus for anyone who stops by is a free Nintendo Switch branded luggage handle wrap and a $10 coupon from Target to use on any Nintendo purchase of $75 or more – “available while supplies last.”
But: We stopped by the SEA pop-up lounge on Monday, the first day Nintendo’s pop-up lounge was opened. Although the attendants were friendly and chatty and offered to take our photo, no luggage handle wraps or coupons were offered. So, if you’re interested in that, be sure to speak up.
Look for the pop-up lounges through March 29, 2020 at these airports:
