Nintendo announced that it was going to have a representation of the super mario world in the real world through a section in the park universal studios japan from Osaka, and the plans were to have it ready by mid-2020, taking advantage of the start of the Olympic Games. But of course, the COVID-19 pandemic arrived and everything has been screwed up, but that has not prevented the construction company from continuing to carry out its work.
First leaked photos of the Nintendo amusement park
Thanks to some photos apparently taken from a helicopter (or perhaps a drone) by the Instagram user imaiko02, Today we can see the appearance of the new section that will arrive at the Universal Studios Japan park in Osaka. As we can see, the evolution of the Super Nintendo World is spectacular, and apparently the works seem almost finished, showing off some scaffolding in large-volume constructions such as Bowser's castle or Princess Peach's Castle.

It's smaller than we thought
The first thing that stands out is that the park does not seem to be particularly large, at least from the perspective we see in the image, although we must remember that it is an extra addition to the Universal park, and not an independent park as such. Of course, everything seems especially tight, so we will have to see what capacity they have calculated.

Let's remember that when entering the park we will wear a quantifying bracelet that will be in charge of counting the coins that we are getting during our visit and comparing them with the rest of the visitors, something that we will see if it entails prizes or some type of gift if we manage to reach top of the table.
As some users have shared through the networks, the park is visible from the nearby roads, and some have not hesitated to take the odd photo from afar to try to see something else from a distance. A good mobile with optical zoom it would have come in handy.

Entering through a pipe
In the image we can see some recognizable areas, such as the desert pyramids, Yoshi's forest or Bowser and Peach's castles, and also, a large number of mobile elements if we look at their bases, since many have rails for scroll horizontally. But if there is something especially striking, it will be the entrance to the park, since we will have to enter through a large pipe that leads inside the park. Super Nintendo World.
This entrance will be clearly recognizable as it has a square where we can see the drawing of a star on the ground. Very appropriate to give way to the Mushroom Kingdom.
Where is Super Nintendo World?
Thanks to the published images we can see that this world of Mario has been built at one end of the amusement park, just where there used to be a large parking area. It is placed next to the Harry Potter themed area, although the entrance will be to the South.
