Pretty neat. Leave it to Nintendo to ensure the museum is interactive throughout.

I wanna play Skyward Sword with a giant Wii Remote.

This was cute! The interactive games were really random but intriguing. Planning to go next spring and I’ll definitely check this out.

Cool place, wonder what museum exclusive stuff they would have at the shop.

Looks pretty cool but I detest the choice to not have anything explaining the displays and instead just “leave it to people’s imaginations.” It’s a museum, if anything people should be getting information from it.
Also, I hope they go real deep into it and include stuff like the Virtual Boy and the Satellaview.

Anyone know how it works if you win an entry in the lottery? How many tickets can you get?

Hope December tickets come up soon. That’s when I’ll be in Japan for the first time! This looks even better than the theme park. Hope we can get in

That was a fun direct video. I’m curious why they wish to utilize mobile phone numbers for verification rather than email addresses when registering for their timeslots.
Also, if you click on 8 bit Mario at the bottom of the screen…

One more place on my bucket list to visit if I ever make it to Japan. :/
The list is so long now I’m gonna need to live there for a month.

I love that I got to visit Super Nintendo World previously, this is even more justification to book another trip to Japan in the not too distant future.

I really enjoyed the Ultra Machine batting cages, especially how they made era accurate rooms to play in. Looks like Ultra Hand also has a similar exhibit.

Anyone else wonder why they didn’t include some of these things in the theme park? Particularly having a shoot out on a large digital screen with any of the previous shooter guns from previous consoles available would’ve been a blast. Instead we got a scavenger hunt. High score gets a plushy, it has theme park written all over it.

I’d love to go. I’ll never get there though.

Anybody find a Virtual Boy? I was looking for it.

This was so cool to see, and for the iconic Shigeru Miyamoto, the man, myth, and legend behind Mario and Zelda, give this livestream and guide of the museum is even better. The museum seems so fun, really celebrating Nintendo’s long and great history even in the times before they became known for video games, and having a lot of interactive places where we can experience Nintendo products in a way that emphasizes Nintendo’s focus on fun, interactivity, and just pure creativity and joy really helps emphasize Nintendo’s special charm.
Nintendo has been a big part of my entire life and I love seeing their history be celebrated in such a way. This really brought the little kid in me back again, and I’d love to visit this museum someday if I get a chance to visit Japan.

Imagine you’re nearing retirement and your life’s work: blood, sweat, tears, and all, are being immortalized in a museum. That has to be the most rewarding experience anyone could ever achieve.

I think Nintendo’s gonna rock it with the hamburger and hanafuda marketing strategy

They’re gonna have to get security to get me to leave this place. Like my god this museum is everything I’ve always loved and obsessed over Nintendo with throughout my life. And what amazing ideas to showcase and demonstrate everything Nintendo has created over the decades. Almost felt emotional watching Miyamoto show off everything and play with the fellow staff. You can tell he’s so happy and proud of this place and Nintendo. I WILL visit this place one day.

Now I’m trying to figure out how giant switch joycons would work

I’ll probably try to go when the hype dies down. I can’t afford a Kyoto trip at the moment and I especially can’t afford to plan one around a lottery drawing.

Can’t wait for the Super Mario Bros giant controller speedruns that will inevitably come out of this.

Miyamoto: “Maybe this will make people shut up about video game preservation.”

The interactive parts look really cool but I’m a bit shocked by how it looks like a generic conference center on the inside as well. Also why did they absolutely filled that pre video game era display to the brim by sticking stuff up instead of properly display, these are actual products a lot of people haven’t seen before.

Miyamoto definitely didn’t win that shootout, come on.
