Nintendo has put out a video today, featuring Shigeru Miyamoto and Universal Studio's Mark Woodbury as they discuss what their plans for the Nintendo attractions at Universal Parks will entail. Not only will Universal Park Osaka Japan have a "Nintendo Land", but the other two parks in America, Orlando Florida and Hollywood California, specifically, will also be getting Nintendo related rides and mascots. More details will be coming soon, according to both companies.

Imagine the fun of stepping into a larger-than-life Nintendo adventure. Gigantic Piranha Plants spring to life. ? Blocks, power-ups and more surround you. And Mario and all his friends are there to pull you into a brand-new world.

You will enter an entire realm filled with iconic Nintendo excitement, gameplay, heroes and villains. And it is coming to three Universal theme parks around the globe. See more in the official announcement video on YouTube (above).

The creative visionaries behind Nintendo's legendary worlds and characters are working together with the creative teams behind Universal's blockbuster theme park attractions. Their goal: to bring the characters, action and adventure of Nintendo video games to life within Universal theme parks. And to do so in new and innovative ways that capture what makes them so special. All of the adventure, fun and whimsy you experience through a screen will now be all around you – in breathtakingly authentic ways.

Interesting, seeing as back in the 80's they tried to sue Nintendo for the use of the name Kong in Donkey Kong, guess they let bygones be bygones

That's neat! I've been to both Disney parks in the US and Universal Studios once, Universal was definitely the most enjoyable of the three.

"Oh, Universal has movie studios, Sony has movie studios. They must be totally the same."

Companies usually only compete in fields where they clash. They can be the bestest of buddies otherwise. For example, Apple's iPhone screens are produced by Samsung and Samsung hired hundreds of people exclusively to develop iPhone screens. Netflix competes with Amazon Prime Instant Video however Netflix is entirely hosted by Amazon Web Services and stores all its movies and data on Amazon servers. Yahoo and Bing compete, however Yahoo relies on Microsoft's search algorithms for its own search capabilities.

But are OUR bodies ready?

Universal Studios Hollywood is only like 20 or so minutes away from where I live. Quite excited for this! I've never really been to Universal Studios, but I have been to City Walk. Guess I'll finally give Universal Studios a try once this is finalized.

 

[osaka35]

Neato! I'll plan a trip there for when it opens. Harry potter world and nintendo world. fun! Here's hoping it's more than just a singular ride.

 

[Hanafuda]

This sounds fun. I'm interested to see whether all three parks get exactly the same stuff or not. I take my family on a one-month vacation to Japan every 2-3 years so I'll get the chance to hit both Osaka and Orlando, at least, within a year or two of it opening. But if its the same thing at all three parks, I'll just go to Osaka so I can get a cooler T-shirt.

 

[Procyon]

My body... My body is ready!!!!!

 

[Alex658]

Oh neat, i would like to go to a Mario Party themed attraction on Universal Studios sometime before I die.

Can you just imagine that? Not like it'd be deadly or anything
Mario surely knows how to pump people up.

 

[kehkou]

Too bad they always put movie-related theme parks in the worst two US states.

Guess it's Cali for me...
