🇯🇵 Complete guide to the fun and shopping at Kyoto’s “Nintendo Museum”! Inherit classics and actively innovate!

#2024 TRAVEL REVIEW #Must go in this life #Kyoto #Museum #Mario #Game 🎴This museum not only displays the footprints of Nintendo’s century-old history, but also has a rich and diverse interactive experience area! The "Nintendo Kokura Factory" was established in 1969. It was once the production base for Hanafuda, trading cards and early game consoles. In 2016, the production tasks were transferred to the new factory, and we began to discuss how to make good use of this building, which played a decisive role in the development history of Nintendo. Later, it was planned to be the Nintendo Museum that is about to open now. As a Nintendo fan since childhood, of course I have to make a pilgrimage! 🎴The first step is to buy a ticket! You need to register on the official website three months in advance, so you plan to visit in December and register before the end of September, and pay on the official website after the ticket purchase results are announced (the ticket price is 3300 yen), otherwise the ticket will be cancelled! If you really forget, tickets will be released the day before, so you can try your luck on the official website. Remember to bring your ID when entering! 🎴A very important point! Remember to log in with your official Nintendo account when buying tickets and draw a cute portrait of yourself! Make your ticket unique~ 🎴 Next is transportation. The Nintendo Museum is located at Kokura Station. If you come from Kyoto Station, take the Kintetsu Kyoto Line from "Kintetsu Kyoto Station" towards Nara. Don't be like me and can't find it in a JR station. car. Kokura Station is quite simple. On the way back, I tried to catch a taxi on the road but there were no taxis at all. 🎴After entering the Nintendo Museum, the first thing you see at the door is the classic Super Mario scene, and Nintendo elements can be seen everywhere, perfect score for cuteness! What few people notice is that there is a signature of Mario's father "Miyamoto" on the wall after entering the museum. Big fans must take a photo. Thank you for bringing so many fun games to this world! 🎴The excitement begins when you enter the exhibition hall on the second floor. Here is the complete history of Nintendo's development, from its original products, Hanafuda, toys, to previous generations of consoles and games. You can’t take pictures in this building, so it’s hard to convey my feelings through words. Here you can find products from the year you were born, as well as every Nintendo game you have played since childhood. It not only reviews the history of Nintendo, but also reviews me. Most of my life. 🎴Back on the first floor is the interactive game area. You will be given 10 gold coins in the ticket. The gold coins deducted for each game are different. The classic game I just saw on the second floor can now be played immediately. It takes me back to the elementary school student in one second. From the interactive game area, we can see Nintendo’s spirit of inheriting classics and actively innovating. Not forgetting its roots, the products "Hanafuda" and "Ultra Hand" that were started back then were turned into interactive games using new technologies. In a game with a huge joystick, you can experience one person operating half of the joystick, and it’s easy to quarrel with your partner, which may be part of the fun :D 🎴Finally, there is the commemorative product area. Although at first I thought it was a bit boring and lacking in design to just print the game console on a T-shirt or mug, but I later discovered that the must-buy product is actually a towel. Nintendo once again used "Hanafuda" and Elements of Mario's classic character are combined into patterns inspired by Kyoto's traditional fabrics. Now when I take out the small towel every day, I will think back to that wonderful afternoon at the Nintendo Museum😍
