Universal Studios in Japan announced that Nintendo’s theme park will open on March 18 under strong hygiene measures due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Super Nintendo World is located in Osaka and was scheduled to open to the public during the summer of 2020, a date that was eventually postponed to February 4 due to a new wave of infections in the Japanese territory.
Now, with a drop in the number of new infections, Universal Studios has decided to open the park which, among the main attractions, has a roller coaster inspired by ‘Mario Kart’.
任天堂のキャラクターとその世界をテーマにしたユニバーサル・スタジオ・ジャパンの新エリア『スーパー・ニンテンドー・ワールド™ 』のオープンが2021年3月18日(木)に決定しました。
