Nintendo Museum gets an opening date as Nintendo shows it off for the first time


Nintendo has announced that the Nintendo Museum will open on October 2.

The museum, which is based in Kyoto, is built on the site of the original factory where Nintendo manufactured hanafuda and playing cards.

In a 10-minute video hosted by Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo showed the inside of the museum for the first time.

The museum’s second floor shows off the products Nintendo has released since it was founded, mostly focusing on video game systems and games.

One exhibit shown in the video is a large display based on the Famicom and NES, with the boxes of games and accessories for every Nintendo-published title in every region.

Other sections show the evolution of Mario and Zelda series, and the Mario question block.

Another section shows off some of Nintendo’s other non-video game products, such as a baby stroller, board games, RC cars and light guns.

Miyamoto then heads down to the museum’s first floor, which has a giant screen on the floor. Visitors can use a smart device to play the tradtional card game Hyakunin Isshu.

The first floor features a total of eight interactive experiences. Visitors are given a pass loaded with digital coins which can be used in these experiences.

One of these experiences lets visitors try the Ultra Machine, an early baseball-pitching machine created by Nintendo in the 1960s. Visitors enter a recreation of a living room and have to try to hit targets with the balls.

Another experience reinvents Nintendo’s 1970s Laser Clay shooting ranges with a more modern take, as visitors use the NES Zapper and Super Famicom Super Scope to fire at targets on a giant screen.

A third experience lets players try to play classic Nintendo games with enormous controllers designed for two players to play together, such as a giant Famicom controller, Wii Remote and Wii Fit Board.

“The Nintendo Museum is a place where you can learn about our commitment to crafting experiences that value play and creativity, both of which are integral to Nintendo,” Miyamoto said.
