Images of Super Nintendo World’s signage from Universal Studios Japan have recently surfaced online.
The images were posted to Twitter by user @RizuRizu32, who found the signs while recently visiting the theme park. Despite the fact that Super Nintendo World is still under construction and therefore closed off to the public, it’s clear that these signs are visible and accessible to park-goers.
Though the sign is covered, the words “Super Nintendo World” can still be seen from underneath the cover. Additionally, because the sign is covered in red, the full sign’s reveal will likely be soon.
But @RizuRizu32 isn’t the only recent photos of the park to make the waves online. Another Twitter user, @ihc_aaayyyaaa, posted these shots which show an overhead view of the park, both during the day and at nighttime. From the photos, you can see a clear view of Bowser’s Castle, the iconic green hills and floating coins, a Piranha Plant, Koopa Troopas, and even some Goombas.
Though Universal Studios has not released any official images of Super Nintendo World yet, excited fans have been staking out the park and taking photos to keep track of its progress. Just recently, a video showing a first look at the park’s “floating coins”, complete with guarding Thwomps and cloud platforms. surfaced on Twitter as well. Prior to that, images popped up revealing a look at Peach’s Castle and some desert-style pyramids in the park.
Super Nintendo World was originally scheduled to open in Universal Studios Japan in Summer 2020, but that opening date was pushed back due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, from the looks of these photos, it appears that the construction team has been making great progress with the long-awaited and heavily-anticipated park.
Universal Studios has confirmed that Super Nintendo World will not be limited to Japan, and will eventually make its way internationally to locations in the American theme parks in Orlando and Hollywood. Unfortunately, there’s no definitive date on when this epic three-dimensional Super Mario playground will make its way to the United States. Until then, be grateful that we at least we have these photos to hold us over!
