Universal Studios Hollywood and Nintendo are slowly increasing the volume for the first theme park Super Nintendo World, located in the United States. Now they are narrowing its opening window to the “beginning” of 2023, while publishing several photos and a video trailer of his remarkable journey: Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge.
The augmented reality of rail travel is already the highlight of the Super Nintendo World experience in Japan, which we visited early last year, offering an interactive experience where riders in four-seater Mario Kart vehicles can drive to collect coins and also toss shells to win Team Bowser, which also allows different riding results.

Riders wear Mario plastic hats with HoloLens-like wire visors at the front, which combine with riding motion, projection mapping on the walls and actual physical elements to deliver action that creates the feeling that the cards are moving faster than they really are. . Byford himself described the experience as “amazing but very fun”, which encouraged him to drive several times to get a higher score. It is possible that this journey will be improved compared to the initial efforts, which the engineers described as upgrading and modular, to account for the improvement of technology. But from the description and the trailer it sounds about the same.
There was only one other trip in the Japanese park when we visited it, the Yoshi Adventure Train trip, although it included other interactive areas and the Power Up bar that pairs with visitors’ phones to track their progress. Another area built around Donkey Kong is reportedly under construction. As for the theme park in the United States, the only details we have so far are that it will have a “revolutionary attraction, Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge and interactive areas for the whole family to enjoy, along with themed shopping and dining. improving the whole experience. ”
