Barely three years after it opened, in the midst of Covid-19 outbreak, Super Nintendo World is set to unveil an enlarged space in view of the huge demand for the theme park.
In a press statement, Universal Studios Japan which set up the themepark says that it is expanding the area of the popular Super Nintendo World, by as much as 70 pc.
The park is world’s first-ever Donkey Kong Country area, themed on the world of Donkey Kong, and the expanded part will open to public on December 11, enhancing and deepening the experiential value of the Super Nintendo World. It says that the new area will provide new experiences full of innovation and creativity that will take visitors’ experience to an even higher level.
One of the key parts of the new area is the Golden Temple, a shining structure located in the deepest part of the jungle that has actually appeared as a level in Donkey Kong games. According to the statement, once inside, visitors will feel as if they have entered the world of Donkey Kong and feel the atmosphere of the mysterious ruins with their whole body.
“In Donkey Kong Country, visitors can immerse themselves in the lush tropical landscapes seen in the popular video game series and explore real-life locations deep in the jungle, including the Golden Temple. The new ride attraction, Mine Cart Madness, is a new and innovative coaster design that is not bound by conventional ideas and will offer an unpredictable experience that will make you seemingly jump over gaps,’’ says Daniel Greer, Producer, Universal Creative.
The ride vehicles and boarding area for ‘Mine Cart Madness’, a new and innovative ride attraction that breaks away from conventional ideas, will also be unveiled to visitors.
Donkey Kong is a video game series created by Nintendo and led by Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo’s Representative Director and Fellow, and has been loved around the world for generations.
