Traveler reviews

Walking into Super Nintendo World feels like stepping straight into a Mario game. The moving scenery, music, interactive blocks and incredible attention to detail make it one of the most immersive themed lands I’ve ever visited. Every direction you look feels alive, and it’s impossible not to smile when you first walk through the green pipe and see the entire world in front of you. If you’re visiting, try to enter as early as possible or secure a timed entry ticket in advance, as the area gets very busy throughout the day. A Power-Up Band is also worth considering if you want to take part in the interactive games and collect coins around the land.

It was very busy when we went on the weekend, having to dodge a lot of people walking both ways to and from this attraction, I would recommend getting the app to have a look at the area map. The staff were really nice and helpful when needing help with stuff like locating toilets and chargespot locations. The food at the restaurant was very nice and mario themed. I would recommend arriving early to visit and dodge crowds.

Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Japan was a fantastic experience. The attention to detail is incredible and you really feel like you've stepped into a Mario game. A few tips for anyone planning to go: First, the pricing is definitely more affordable than what you'd pay in the States, which is a nice bonus. However, you do need a separate timed entry ticket to access this area beyond your regular Universal Studios admission. I highly recommend booking your tickets in advance and reserving your entry timeframe through the app. If you don't do this early in the day, you might miss out completely since slots fill up fast. The land itself is compact but packed with interactive elements. If you're into the full experience, consider getting a Power Up Band to unlock all the games and challenges throughout the area. The theming is next level. The colors, sounds, and moving parts make it feel alive. Even just walking around and taking photos is fun. Yoshi's ride is geared more toward younger kids, but Mario Kart is legitimately impressive with the AR technology. Bottom line: Plan ahead, arrive early, book your timed entry as soon as you enter the park, and be prepared for crowds. It's a must-do if you're a Nintendo fan or visiting with kids. The nostalgia factor alone makes it worthwhile.

Definitely one of the highlights of Universal Studios Japan, came straight here after getting in, people were literallly running, and managed to get in before the time entry kicked in. If the time entry kicked in, can always go into the USJ app and book the next available time entry. The whole place is so fun and cool, many moving mechanism, and with the watch, we could interact with some of the installations like the yellow ? boxes! The Yoshi adventure ride was easy and fun, giving a good look of the area, and the Mario Kart was quite a unique and interactive ride, “driving” and “shooting” bad guys for points! Overall a super fun and enjoyable place

This is why you're here, right? Then go about 0645 at the gates to wait for entry. Yes, the line will already be there. Even on a Tuesday, 11.11, at 06:30, it was there. But I did get in as one of the first and did make it to Mario Cart before they even closed the space because it became too full. 20 or so minutes after entry, about 08:50 (it opens 08:30), the lines were 100+ min. long. It's crazyness, but well deserved. It's paradise for anyone who grew up with SMB. And yes, at 08:30 everyone runs for it, delicately, as running is not really allowed. And it's a long way to go.
