Just last week, we shared some intriguing aerial photographs of Super Nintendo World, the new theme park currently in the works at Universal Studios Japan. The images gave us a good look at the general layout of the park and its components, but now we have several more images taken from the ground.
The park itself isn't open yet, but that hasn't stopped visitors taking photographs from other areas of Universal Studios' grounds. The images below come from @LCASTUDIOS_USJ, and while we can't see anything up close, you can certainly get a taste of the size of some of these iconic Mario locations. Take a look:
We can't wait for the park to open properly so that we can truly see how it all looks from the inside. We imagine this is going to become a must-visit experience for Nintendo fans heading out to Japan.
Are you looking forward to seeing Super Nintendo's World's grand reveal? Would you like to visit one day if you get the chance? Let us know in the comments.

Would I LIKE to visit? Hell, yeah! Probably never going to happen, though. Far too expensive a trip from here, just to visit an amusement park...
Who knew the Mushroom Kingdom was right next door to Water World.
They've blended it quite well into the background of the various different areas. That forested area I imagine is the Wizarding World part of the park. As for the Water World part, well lets hope Cheep Cheeps and Bloopers don't take over!
So refreshing to see "peek" used correctly instead of "peak" like I see on forums and smaller news sites.
Gah! It’s so beautiful!
@KingBowser86
Well it's a sneak-peek at the peak of Bowser's Castle.
This park is awesome. Been there last year and it's one of my favs ever. The Harry Potter land is just amazing, and the Flying Dinosaur is one of the best rides I've ever done. Can't wait to go once more and see this new land!
@RupeeClock The water worlds are normally pretty early in the games, sooo... 😉
I just need to know if DK Island is actually being built.
This park looks great! I just hope that there are attractions with other Nintendo Characters. Imagine what a Pikmin Experience would be like.
without the painted on trees and where it cuts off it's pretty trippy to look at. can see it being a actual game
@RupeeClock @KingBowser86
The peak sneak-peek has piqued my interest.
That castle tower looks like
"The Bowser Who Laughs"
@Darthroseman @RupeeClock
These Sneaky Petes, sneaking in some peeps about sneaking a peek at the peak of the keep.
I'm dying to see virtual tours of this place when it opens.
I want to go to there.
My wife is already planning a trip to the Orlando area in 2023 when super Nintendo world opens there. 😎
@ThanosReXXX It's a theme park. Not an amusement park. https://themeparkarchitect.com/do-you-know-the-difference-between-amusement-parks-and-theme-parks/
I'm disappointed that the worker in the first image isn't wearing the Mario Maker Builder outfit.
@Sans_Undertale You shouldn't want to be that guy who feels the need to correct people on things that don't really need any correcting, seeing as most other people in the comments section know what they're talking about regardless...
The paintjobs on those props are so good! I almost thought it was a 3D rendering..
@Drangor
It'll be coming to Hollywood and Orlando with Hollywood's Mario Kart ride being built right now and will be in the new Epic Universe park in Orlando once its finished in 2024.
@ThanosReXXX you can always visit the one in Orlando instead
@Supadav03 Well, I live in Europe, so that would still be quite a way to travel for me.
Then again: I might still visit this particular park one day. But then I would rather combine it with some other locations and/or sight-seeing, instead of just going all that way for a Mario theme park.
@ThanosReXXX Haha. Guess that’s what I get for assuming everyone on here is from the US.
I wanted to go to Tokyo for the Olympics but don’t think we’ll be traveling overseas now. Would have been amazing to squeeze in a trip to Super Nintendo World at the same time.
Luckily I live in FL, so I’ll eventually get to the one in Orlando.
@Supadav03
Nintendo Life is based in the UK, so I always assume most everyone else on here is also from the UK, like myself.
@Supadav03 Well, if it's any comfort: you were half-right: I actually AM from the States, but when I was young, I moved to Europe, and now live in Amsterdam, in the Netherlands. Great city to live in, by the way.
As for the site community: I see that @Crimson_Ridley already beat me to saying something about that, although I want to add that the community is probably 50/50 European/American, so it's not just Yanks and Brits here: the European members come from just about every country imaginable.
Me and my Ninty loving family were all booked for Japan this July with hotels booked including Olympics and Super Nintendo World. All cancelled
I hope this is truly an immersive experience. One of the things I’ve always admired about Disneyland is that once you step through its gates, you see no part of the outside world. Can’t say the same for other theme parks where I live (California). I remember FINALLY getting a chance to ride Jurassic Park at Universal Hollywood. The last time I went, was before it opened, I wanna say mid 90’s. TALK ABOUT DISAPPOINTING! Never mind the dated animatronics! It’s a ride from the 90’s. I was disappointed in the fact that I could see other parts of the park! 😞
I remember being able to see track homes while inside Magic Mountain. Looking at which fast food place I want to hit up, outside of Knott’s Berry Farm, as I’m hurled over the hill of the Xcelerator! 😂
@ThanosReXXX You’d probably find more to do in Japan than just visit a theme park.
Nice. Keen to go one day!
@arabiansanchez True enough.
At a quick glance, I thought I was looking at some screen shots of a still in development Mario game.
I don't believe there not releasing arcade games to play at home HERE, why can't we get them as well every average town in this country has an arcade, that's thousands of arcades. the park sounds nice
@Supadav03 Hollywood will be first
@Sans_Undertale Yeah, we gotta wait longer because instead of just an add-on, it’s going to be part of a whole new theme park Universal is building in Orlando called Epic Universe.
@Jarrod is it still opening in 2023
@PokemonGirl99 as long as the rona is gone by then. 😳
