KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 19 (Bernama) -- Universal Studios Japan, operated by USJ LLC, is set to expand its popular Super Nintendo World, which has attracted visitors daily since its debut in March 2021.
The major expansion of the themed area, opening on Dec 11, will feature the world’s first-ever "Donkey Kong Country" area, immersing guests in the iconic world of Donkey Kong.
According to a statement, this new addition will increase Super Nintendo World’s size by 70 per cent, offering innovative and creative experiences that promise to elevate the park's appeal.
A centrepiece of the new area is the stunning Golden Temple, a massive structure inspired by the Donkey Kong video games. Located in the deepest part of the jungle, the temple’s interior is filled with intricate details, creating an immersive atmosphere of mysterious ruins.
Guests will discover a mural inside that hints at the exciting adventures to come. This dynamic space is designed to excite visitors even before they experience the main attraction.
The highlight of the "Donkey Kong Country" area is the new "Mine Cart Madness" coaster, an innovative ride that combines next-generation technology and unconventional design to deliver an unpredictable, thrilling experience.
The ride was developed in collaboration with Nintendo’s creative team, including its Representative Director and Fellow, Shigeru Miyamoto, which promises to engage riders both visually and physically.
With an unprecedented ride system and a unique design, this first-of-its-kind family coaster includes jaw-dropping moments, such as launching out of a barrel and speeding over precarious gaps.
In addition to the ride, the "Donkey Kong Country" area will feature dining and shopping, providing a comprehensive experience for visitors. Universal Studios Japan is eager to share more details in the lead-up to the grand opening, as it continues to create unforgettable experiences for fans of all ages.
