The Capcom Store Ikebukuro located in Ikebukuro Parco is the newest Capcom flagship store within the Tokyo area. Fans of Capcom series from Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Mega Man, Okami, Monster Hunter, and much more can find exclusive merchandise here.

The mall is located right next to Ikebukuro Station and a must stop for anyone visiting the area. The entire B2F of the Ikebukuro Parco is also becoming a otaku shopping mecca similar to the Shibuya Parco Cyberspace floor. Read more about it in my Shibuya Parco guide below for more details.

The store features original artwork of Capcom‘s main characters that you can pick up in various merch forms as well so be sure to grab these exclusive items if you visit.

Fans can see the latest trailers playing on the large screen inside the entrance of the latest main Capcom titles. Around the corner they’ve also set up a small area to try out some of the latest demos on the Nintendo Switch 2 as well and this time it featured Pragmata.

Outside the store is a gorgeous Street Fighter VI statue and inside the entrance they frequently change the wall to show the newest popular title which in this case was Resident Evil Requiem.

Each major Capcom title has its own shelf or section dedicated to merch including older releases in some cases so definitely be sure to check out your favorites just in case something you missed before is back in stock. This is the Ace Attorney shelf with new merch from almost all of the franchises iterations.

The Okami section just doubled thanks to new drops of the 20th anniversary merchandise along with stock from previous collaborations like Tsutaya and the Okami cafe. The Pop Up Parade figures were also rereleased and as a proud owner of one I definitely recommend to fans who are on the fence about larger figures. It’s a great value for that full figure size with a very reasonable price point. If readers are interested I may post sometime about some of my favorite Okami collectibles since it is one of my favorite games of all time.

The Megaman section may be a bit small but it’s packed with collectibles and figures.

Devil May Cry is making a bit of a comeback with some more merch dropping as well.

While Pragmata is still a very new IP they also had the Megaman collaboration artwork merch in stock in celebration of the new DLC announcement.

The Resident Evil section has been growing recently with new merch drops like the character cookie designs on display here. They tend to sell out pretty quickly too which is why the shelves aren’t as big as the Okami ones yet.

The brand new Biohazard 30th anniversary merch had just recently dropped when I visited and took up the front display of the store as well. I absolutely love the artwork even if I haven’t gotten to play all of the games yet myself.

The Street Fighter section is one of the largest in the store dedicated to a single series. The full shelf of t-shirts really stands out and is a great buy for fans who want a useable souvenir and one that is a lot easier to pack. Anything you can imagine as a merch item is probably on sale here though since you can spy everything from clear file folders to keychains and even puzzles.

Finally the largest selection in the whole store is of course Monster Hunter because once again they stocked not just the latest merch but also the plushies and full scale figures. The series also just celebrated a large anniversary and with the expansion to the latest game Monster Hunter Ascendance slated for release next year you can bet there will be more yet to come. There are even more Monster Hunter Chibi Style collection items being released now too and I’m super excited. For a cooler and more classic Monster Hunter collectible the latest weapon keychains are very stylish as well.

There’s a huge wall dedicated to the Capcoron plushies including the extra large ones. They’ve been releasing and rereleasing a lot of them lately so the store often has a flyer with the latest info.

There’s also a large section dedicated to the various collaboration art for all of the franchises like the beautiful Street Fighter hanafuda card artwork and much more.

Speaking of collaborations the Rockman x Hololive one was such a hit most of the merch was already sold out but there was still enough to have a cool little display.

There’s also a wall of GRAPHT patches and B-Side label stickers. This stock changes and updates pretty regularly by the month I find so be sure to check again if you haven’t visited in a while.

I was surprised to see the newest Monster Hunter pachinko slot machine on display here just like it was at the recent Tokyo Game Show. While the theming is based on Monster Hunter Rise and Sunbreak it brings back a lot of nostalgia from the last generation of the series.

And yes they even have their own mini gacha corner and to the right of it sometimes they have the latest Capcom themed kuji lottery still in stock as well. It’s next to most of the deformed Monster Hunter plushies so it’s hard to miss if you check the corner next to the cashier. If you’re feeling lucky be sure to give either a shot while you can!

There’s actually a whole Capcom entertainment building in Ikebukuro as well so be sure to check back to my blog sometime for more details when we get to it.
