Super Nintendo World Hollywood Welcomes Toad To Its Walk-About Cast

I've watched a lot of videos on the park - some recently. Waiting in long lines, teeney tiny section of the park, over-priced junk, one "interactive" ride. It looks like a living hell to me.

Toad looks a little . . . husky to me.

My girlfriend adores Toad. Maybe this will be what convinces her.

@Cashews It’s amazing! Just don’t go on busy weekends during the summer. We have season passes and my kids still love going even after 5 visits this year.

@Cashews can confirm. it's incredibly tiny & jam packed and there isn't much to do. the nice thing, i think most people want to see it so the other parts of the park are a bit more accessible until about mid-day then things start to pick up. i'd recommend waiting for the orlando park to open which is sure to be significantly bigger.

@timschel word. my kids were like "Let's go!" and I felt like an old curmudgeon with my "It's too far! It's too expensive! The lines!"

Next I'll be complaining about the heat in summer

Florida is much closer and Universal is a fun park.

On strike, i presume?

Am i the only one who plans on getting married at Super Nintendo World, anyone can attend my wedding as long as they pay the entry fee.

Why is Toad still such a chonk boi?

Move over, Big Chungus. It's time for Big Fungus.

Toad is ADORABLE!!!!!!

@Cashews How about some crisps to go with that salty bitter beer?

@Nikki_boagreis Friends of mine got married at Galaxy's Edge in Disneyland, and that was a fun time! I have an apartment essentially "in" Disneyland Paris and people get married there all the time - often with different themes, not just the typical "royal wedding" you'd imagine. Pirate weddings are quite popular, for example.

@Cashews I'm impressed by the quality of the theming but it is disappointingly small and very claustrophobic when busy - I'd recomend going on a Wednesday morning when it's not a school holiday! lol. The Japanese one is a little bigger and more impressive with another proper attraction, I certainly hope the one in Florida will be at least as big if not bigger tahn that one.

The California based Disney & Universal parks always have real problems with size/expansion as they are in built up residential/city areas. But even in Florida where they have far more space, I don't imagine it will even slightly compare in size or ambition to Galaxy's Edge or Wizarding World.

I'd say its great for what it is, as long as you keep your expectations quite low and don't compare to other larger "immersive world" experiences. Its not really even remotely its own "theme park" (which I see many people here labelling it as), more like an extra "land" in the existing park, like when Disney added the Toy Story areas to some of their parks. You wouldn't go to Disneyland only for Tomorrowland and expect a full day's entertainment, people shouldn't go to Universal only for Nintendo... its certainly a great addition though and high quality for what it is.

If you're a huge Nintendo fan, you'll get a kick out of it regardless, as long as you are aware its very small and don't build your expectations too high... For me, as a massive Muppet fan, I was really happy the first time I experienced the Muppet square in Hollywood studios, even though its only really one attraction, a restaurant, a shop, and some nice theming of the area with photo opportunities, easter eggs etc to be able to call it a small "land".

Mad respect for any worker that can walk around in this heat in full costume. I want to go but it will be in the Fall.

I went a couple of months ago. Travelled from Scotland after being to the one in Japan in November. The one in Hollywood is not great. The staff were rude, whereas in Japan the staff really go out their way to make it a magical experience and make you feel like younare in the Mushroom Kingdom. The merchandise in Japan is also amazing in comparison.

Japan now has Bowser Jr

I would love to go there but as someone who lives in Florida, it would be easier at this point to wait the year and a half for the Orlando one to open. I would love to go to California though, but by the time I’d be able to afford going there, the one in Orlando will have already opened, so I may as well wait.
