This article is about a location that has just been opened on October 2, 2024. Major changes should be made by a contributor who has a reliable source.
This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the location was first opened.
The Nintendo Museum is a museum located in Kyoto, Japan, that features exhibits of Nintendo's products, from the hanafuda playing cards it produced when it was founded in 1889 to the Nintendo Switch. It was built on the site of the Nintendo Uji Ogura Plant where the hanafuda and other playing cards were manufactured, and opened on October 2, 2024.[1] The museum was announced in a press release on June 2, 2021, under the tentative name Nintendo Gallery,[2] until it was revealed under its final name in the September 2023 Nintendo Direct, when it was originally set to open before March 2024.[3] On August 19, 2024, a Nintendo Direct was published where Shigeru Miyamoto provided a tour of the museum, many of the areas of which are themed after the Super Mario franchise, in addition to displays of a large variety of Super Mario-related products released by Nintendo since the early 1980s.[4] It is located at 56 Kaguraden, Ogura-cho, Uji-shi, Kyoto 611-0042.[5]
When visitors enter the Nintendo Museum, they will be issued entry passes known as "play tickets",[6] with the default design depicting a sprite of Mario from Super Mario Bros. Each play ticket contains 10 digital coins that can be used on the museum's interactive exhibits located on the first floor of Exhibition Building 1.
Exterior and plaza
Some of the lockers in the locker room near the entry gate of the Nintendo Museum resemble Game Boy cartridges, with some of them being cartridges of Super Mario games such as Super Mario Land, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, and Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3.[7][8] The outside of the Nintendo Museum includes a plaza featuring Brick Blocks, a ? Block, an Empty Block, and a Super Mushroom, as well as two poles: a pixelated Goal Pole with Mario from Super Mario Bros. grabbing it, and a pole with fruit being climbed by Donkey Kong Jr. from the arcade game.[9] The floor is decorated with tiles depicting sprites of enemies and objects from Super Mario Bros., being coins, a Goomba, a Lakitu, a Super Star, a Koopa Troopa, a Buzzy Beetle, a Bullet Bill, and a big Super Mushroom (which has eyes like its sprite from Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, although the rest of the sprite is more similar to its original Super Mario Bros. appearance).[10][11] A Checkpoint Flag is visible from the plaza, located on the roof of Exhibition Building 2 near the entrance.[9] The side of the entrance building facing Exhibition Building 2 depicts the clouds with eyes from Super Mario Bros. 3.[9] The roof of the Nintendo Museum features a large sprite of the ? Block from Super Mario Bros.[3]
