Nintendo Coming to Universal Parks

Where did the Miitomo / theme park integration news come from? Considering it's Nintendo's first mobile app, I've heard very little about it.

It's been stated that there will be theme park integration with the new MyNintendo account system, and the Miitomo app just seems like it'll be the primary way to access accounts from mobile.

Yup, exactly

The producer of The Lego Movie would love to work on one for Nintendo. If they can make it as good as TLM was, I say go for it.

I think the producer is a lot less important for something like that then getting someone like Lord and Miller (the directors of LEGO) on it. Those guys are the reason that movie worked.

On Nintendo, Miitomo comes out March 6 with preregistration opening today, so I'm sure then or around then we can find out what the goal is in regards to theme parks. Nintendo sent out the email today.

Will there be a playground area in this new land? We were there last week and my 5 yr old loved Feivels play land. He does not like rides much at all but will spend hours in these highly themed play areas (he also loved Camp Jurassic, and the Dr. Seuss zoo). It would be a shame if they took away this great play area and didn't put a new one in especially since there isn't another play area in this park. He would go absolutely nuts if there was a Mario play area!

Last I heard there is *a play area, not Mario themed tho*

Last I heard there is.

That would make sense really, best way to incorporate Super Mario Bros game is through a playground, pipes and blocks, will be great for pictures.

The playground could also be inside Peach's Castle. Anyone who's played Mario 64 should see where I'm going with this.

Kids will be wondering why the playground is full of grown ups

Playground isn't Mario themed.

 

[anihilnation]

Playground isn't Mario themed.

Bummer.
Hint on what the theme might be then?

 

[captainmoch]

Playground isn't Mario themed.

Hmm... then is it Donkey Kong or Yoshi themed? Spill it! :dance:

Donkey Kong would make sense as well, remniscent of Camp Jurrasic.

Apparently there was a massive line for the Nintendo store reopening in NYC



That long of a line for a store... I can only imagine how nuts things are going to be when this land opens up in Uni

This... Nintendo Orlando at USF will be even more awesome.

Check out the pipes at the entrance and all the original consoles on display!

 

[amityboattours]

Just posting this for fun, but the colour of the pipes etc in this video is exactly how I picture them hopefully looking in a real-world scenario

I read that half asleep there thinking that would be a weird combination.

Nintendo partners with Amity Boat Tours?
