It has been announced today that Nintendo will be partnering with Universal Parks and Resorts to develop theme park attractions.
These will be based on Nintendo’s games, characters and worlds. The announcement states:
“Now, for the first time, those stories and characters will be brought to life in entirely new ways – only at Universal theme parks,”
Continuing on, it says:
“The immersive experiences will include major attractions at Universal’s theme parks and will feature Nintendo’s most famous characters and games.”
More details will come out as the creative teams of the different companies “work to create specific concepts.”
Alongside news of Nintendo venturing into the smartphone space, it certainly appears that Nintendo is trying to expand the reach of it’s brands, IPs and characters.
