Super Nintendo World Hollywood Powers Up With 1st Anniversary Celebrations

Power up cafe opens on the15th? Weird. I was just there, it was the "grand opening" and I had a fire flower pretzel.

Forget the yellow band, I want a recipe for super mushroom calzone

Jk I want both

After being there, and the one in Japan I can honestly say the Hollywood park is crap. It looks unfinished, you can see everything outside the park and the staff are rude and unhelpful. In Japan it is bigger, you can't see anything outside the park so it feels like you are in the Mushroom Kingdom and the staff really make it a magical experience for you! The merchandise in Jaan is amazing too.

@CupidStunt do you mean Japan? Super Nintendo world is a bucket list thing for me so I'd be interested to know if you mean the one in Japan is better.

@Johnnycide

Sorry. I fixed all the typos.

I'd appreciate it if someone would to test it in Mario Party 10 to confirm whether or not it acts as a Gold Mario amiibo.

Cant wait til they open one up in Florida. Im not super close to Florida but at least its on my side of the earth lol

@CupidStunt no I'm sorry bud. I didn't realise it was a typo, I was genuinely interested in hearing about the differences between the two parks.

@Johnnycide The Osaka one is bigger as it has a desert level section and the Yoshi ride. There are more stores and more games for the Power-up Band. The band fell of my wrist in Japan and the staff went out their way to find it for me and I was dressed like Luigi and they were all jumping around. In Holywood my wristband fell off within 10 mins of going into the park. The staff were rude and dismissive and not interested and it really took away from the fun of the park. It is smaller, the merchandise is rubbish and it felt it looked unfinished. The rest of the park is not great compared to Florida or Japan either.

@CupidStunt wow so definitely worth stumping up the extra cash for Japan then. I really want to take my partner and the kids there before they're in their teens and lose the wonder a bit. I'm definitely jealous! Well played dressing up like Luigi as well. Love it! Thanks for the reply 😁

@Johnnycide Japan is not expensive when you are there (far cheaper than California that is for sure). It is just more expensive to get to.

Universal Hollywoods Super Nintendo World is a dream. The park has very limited space and they managed to fit an incredible land into that space. I have never once been let down walking in and feeling the magic.

Being a pass holder I'll definitely be checking it out soon! Freaking Universal is really going for it in their Parks. Pretty soon they'll be marketing the Fast & Furious coaster which looks to be something insane.

@CupidStunt @Johnnycide I mean I bet the Japan one really is better but can you blame the American one for having rude workers? I’m not saying workers are allowed to be rude but I work retail and like I can imagine working somewhere like Super Nintendo World is a combination of having to probably listen to the same loop of BA BA Mario music for 8 hours, deal with or listen to screaming and crying children and then maybe on top of that deal with like the quintessential smelly, overweight nerd guy like your typical smash stereotype for instance. And like combine all that and I’m not gonna lie even I would probably be dismissive of a grown adult who somehow lost the wristband attached to his wrist.

@Ryne-Gaia Someone working at a Nintendo Park, should understand that someone who bought a wristband from the Japan Park, why it would be important to them. If someone is beibg polite to them, there is no need to be rude back and it says more about them. I hope you do not work in customer facing work if you are that judgemental.

@CupidStunt now see unless you did mention that and I missed it for which I apologize if so. That changes things tho yeah if I worked there and you came up and told me that I would absolutely be like hell yeah I’ll help you find it buddy. I thought you meant a band that was bought that day at the American one and it’s like yeah workers really shouldn’t be responsible for grown adults misplacing things that quick. But again if that was me and you told me that story we’d track that sucker down. As for your last line yeah I do work in customer facing work again specifically retail and I mean being judgmental is something you have to do. Otherwise you’ll get scammed from here to the moon.
