IKEA needs to take over Marshall's and expand the store. It's too small for the amount of traffic it gets.

I am a huge sucker for such otaku collectibles, especially Kirby. They help brighten up an otherwise dreary basement.

I even got myself a yellow Pokémon Store Pikachu bag as seen in the fifth photo.

OK I need to take my daughter to that wall of Pokémon plushies.

Gengar for me!

The organizers behind the 222 Spadina market did a couple of pop-ups in the basement level, including this past weekend. It was interesting to see the space with a bunch of people in it. I wouldn't be totally shocked if that was the highest traffic the place has seen in years, possibly ever. The contrast in animation between the halls with vendors and those without was stark.

The layout of the place is abysmal -- it was fascinating to see where foot traffic naturally flowed (because I don't think anyone's really witnessed the space with a crowd before). The escalator base was kind of a hub. Some of the alley areas are dead zones.

It is a very cool Pokemon card shop. I go to the food court multiple times a week, and the place always has 5-20 people inside playing. Good vibes it seems

I would not be surprised if Banana Games & Hobby is the retailer with the highest daily traffic of all stores in the basement of Aura.
