Here it is. What we’ve all been waiting for. This is the first look inside the eagerly anticipated Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios in Osaka.
Announced in 2015, the park was originally slated to open this year, but due to the global pandemic, it was delayed. Super Nintendo World has been coming along nicely! Today, USJ announced that the park will open this February.
Check out the first images inside the park, namely the Mario Kart attraction.

I’m still confused as to why this is called Super Nintendo World when it’s clearly ONLY Mario stuff?
I see no signs of Pokemon, or Kirby, or Animal Crossing, or Zelda, or Star Fox, or Metroid, or Donkey Kong, or Fire Emblem, or F-Zero, etc., etc., etc...it’s just Mario, top to bottom.
Big ol’ nitpick aside, holy fuck all of that looks goddamn incredible.
