Universal Studios Japan has postponed the opening of the highly anticipated Super Nintendo World due to the pandemic, but you can now visit virtually!
Sadly, due to the pandemic the opening has been delayed and a new date won’t be announced until later on.
There is a virtual “tour” of the new area available in on the Universal Studios Japan site.
To be fair it isn’t like a traditional walking tour, more like a “highlights” tour, but it’s still pretty interesting.
