SNES World Planned For 2021 , New Amiibo Available

SNES World Planned For 2021 , New Amiibo Available

Early 2021 Opening Planned for Super Nintendo World

It’s hard to imagine a theme park opening at all, much less imagine one debuting a whole new part. Regardless, that is precisely was is expected to happen when Super Nintendo World opens inside Universal Studios Japan early next year.

This is according to an official tweet posted on Nintendo of America’s twitter page. It reads: #SUPERNINTENDOWORLD featuring attractions based on iconic Nintendo games and characters is coming to Universal Studios Japan ( @USJ_Official ) in Early 2021!

As one might expect, the area will contain familiar imagery and iconography from the Super Mario games. The project was officially announced back in 2017 and is a result of a partnership between Universal Studios Japan and Nintendo.

Next Wave of Amiibo Available for Pre-Order

The last amiibo to release came back in January, before the pandemic, so it has been what feels like a lifetime since collectors have been able to get their hands on some.  That said, two new ones have just become officially available.

The recent release means fans can add Joker and Hero amiibo to their collection. Both represent third party additions to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster, too. Joker is the roguish hero from the picaresque RPG, Persona 5 and Hero is the protagonist of Dragon Quest XI.

The figures are available for $15.99. This news comes on the heels of the official reveal of a new Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character, Steve from Minecraft.
