Universal Studios Japan has a similar attraction based around Nintendo, and will likely be the inspiration for the attraction coming to Hollywood. Universal Studios Hollywood say that those who attend can “Let loose in this incredible, colorful land of play featuring the groundbreaking ride, Mario Kart™: Bowser’s Challenge, along with imaginative interactive areas, themed shopping and dining.” Naturally, all of the shopping and dining options will be Nintendo-themed, similar to the other attractions that feature these options in their park.
Some of the other attractions within Universal Studios include Harry Potter, The Simpsons, and Jurassic World. As Universal Studios Hollywood looks to the future with Super Nintendo World, they will surely use their past successes of other attractions to help provide the best experience for their entire community.
