Japan’s New Nintendo Museum Finally Opens!



The long awaited Nintendo Museum is finally opening in Kyoto, Japan on October 2nd, 2024! The museum will highlight everything from Nintendo’s past including Nintendo’s first product, Hanafuda cards to the popular Nintendo Switch. 


The museum is separated into a multitude of sections with interactive exhibits infused with modern technology as well as classic Nintendo consoles, a cafe, shop and of course displays of Nintendo’s past. 


The interactive exhibits aren't just video game centered, one workshop helps you make your own Hanafuda cards and even learn how to play the game itself in the Hanafuda playing room!


In addition to, re-experiencing Nintendo’s past, some interactive exhibits put a new spin on Nintendo games with stations like the Giant Controller, Game and Watch played using your own shadow, a collaborative love tester game, a batting cage, a Super Mario zapper and super scope game, and an ultra hand grabber game! 



But if you’re more of the nostalgic type there are also stations that allow you to play on old consoles like the Nintendo 64 with a selection of over 80 games to choose from. 


It’s important to keep in mind however, that each guest will be granted 10 coins to spend on interactive exhibits, meaning you’ll have to pick and choose which activities you want to try out on your visit. 


The unique experiences don’t stop at the exhibits however, the Nintendo Museum Cafe will feature a customizable burger on the menu and a selection of over 270,000 possible combinations. Yes. 270,000. The cafe is also accommodating with vegetarian options! 



To get tickets for the museum you must apply for the randomly selected drawing, where entries can be accepted up to 3 months prior to your visit. Tickets can become available on a first-come, first-served basis if there are cancellations.These will be announced on Nintendo’s ticketing website. Some exhibits such as the Hanafuda workshop will also require separate reservations in advance.
