Universal will bring Nintendo attractions to its theme parks in Hollywood, Osaka, and Orlando

The Mushroom Kingdom is sprouting up in key places around our world thanks to Nintendo’s partnership with Universal.

The game publisher announced today that Nintendo-themed areas will open at Universal Studios resorts in Osaka, Japan, and in the U.S. cities of Orlando, Florida, and Hollywood, California, over the next several years. The idea is to give visitors the sensation that they are walking around inside games like Super Mario Bros. in real life. Nintendo and Universal first announced their partnership in May 2015 after the game company revealed it was going to get more aggressive about licensing its characters to generate revenue. Now, that is manifesting as a three-park plan, and it should give fans around the world an opportunity to experience Nintendo properties like never before.
