“Nintendo Opens Its Doors To A Memorable Journey Through Gaming History”
Nintendo fans can soon relive memories of playing beloved classics like Super Mario Bros. and Tetris, as the gaming giant opens the doors to a new museum this October in Kyoto, Japan. Housed in the former factory where Nintendo originally made Hanafuda cards over a century ago, the Nintendo Museum is dedicated to showcasing the company's entire videogame journey in an immersive and interactive way.
Visitors will be transported back through Nintendo's beginnings as a toy maker producing items like toys and love cards, all the way to the present day consoles. A special section highlights regional versions of the iconic Famicom with different box art from territories like Japan, America and Europe. Elsewhere in the museum, full-size recreations of controllers from systems like the NES and SNES allow guests to experience playable demo stations of hit Nintendo titles.
In a unique blending of past and present, areas also allow attendees to design their own custom Hanafuda cards or take aim in a virtual light-gun gallery themed after classics like the NES Zapper. Legendary Nintendo designer Shigeru Miyamoto himself recently provided a sneak peek of the attractions, cementing this as a can't-miss trip for any gaming fan eager to reminisce. With interactive experiences, a shop and cafe too, the Nintendo Museum promises to be an engaging tribute to the upbeat adventures and characters that defined generations of play. Gaming history comes alive here in Kyoto this October – reserve your tickets now before this nostalgic trip sells out.
