Nintendo said the meet and greet is free, and entry is first come, first served.
The Nintendo store in Union Square opened in May. The grand opening was met with large crowds in San Francisco’s downtown area, which has decreased through the years amid an exodus of businesses.
The San Francisco location is one of two in the United States — the other in New York. The other three Nintendo store locations are in Japan.
