Guests at Universal Studios Hollywood are looking forward to the day where they can step into their very own larger-than-life adventure with Mario, Peach, Luigi, Donkey Kong, Bowser, and many other popular Nintendo characters.
No date or timetable has been set for the opening of Super Nintendo World in Universal Studios Hollywood, but progress is being made.

In this latest aerial picture of the area, which is Bowser’s Castle, you can see that purple paneling is now being placed around the world to go along with the bright green hills that were placed around the building.
This is significant progress from what we saw even just a few months earlier, where all of that area was only scaffolding.
It had previously been reported that a lot of progress is also being made on the warp pipe, and it’s assumed that this will be the entrance used to enter the world, as we’ve seen at Universal Studios Japan.
Here’s what Universal has previously announced about the Super Nintendo Worlds being built all across the globe.
Imagine the fun of stepping into a larger-than-life Nintendo adventure. Gigantic Piranha Plants spring to life. Question 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.
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.
Over on the east coast, it has already been confirmed that Super Nintendo World at Universal Orlando Resort will be built in the new Epic Universe Park. The Park is currently under construction with an eye on opening in 2025.
What are you looking forward to most when Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Hollywood opens in the future?
