Super Nintendo World
With characters from Super Mario, Pokémon, Sanrio, and Sesame Street, it’s like the Smash Bros. of theme park parades.
Donkey Kong, his pals, and new roller coaster will be waiting in jungle expansion that nearly doubles the size of Nintendo’s domain at USJ.
Blow your warp whistle and hop on this whirlwind tour of all that Universal Studios Japan’s newest section has to offer.
Universal Studios Japan wants to get guests riding that Mario Kart roller coaster very quickly.
Thank you Mario! But Universal Studios Japan’s expansion opening date is in another time period.
Universal Studios Japan also gives hints about Yoshi ride, Bowser Jr. boss battle attraction, and punching park’s question mark blocks.
Park finally has a timetable to let us start racing Mario Karts, punching question blocks, and eating Luigi’s hat.
How much longer are we going to have to wait for the world’s first Nintendo theme park zone?
