Visiting Donkey Kong Country at Super Nintendo World 🍌🌴🍌 Universal Studios Japan

[@mariversteeg6741]

When Nintendo released the Super Mario Bros and Donkey Kong games beginning 80's, it was a revolutionary step into the world of gaming. Everybody started to live the adventures of Mario and Donkey Kong. Now we are fourty years later and a massive theme park was created honoring those two. Nintendo changed our worlds and i thank them for that. Awesome video once again! And yes, i would have totally bought that mug also myself 🙂

[@experience_japan]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I pinned it because it was such a wonderful comment!

[@FairyChild_For_Freedom-Justice]

​@@experience_japanI like it when are KZbinrs give us the prices especially in the gift shops It gives us an idea of how much money things actually are inside the park. Like you did with the food that was awesome. This is the first video I've seen of yours I'll be back. Though reading drives me nuts I just like watching but I understand You probably speak Japanese and I English. Thank you for sharing your world with us.❤

[@FairyChild_For_Freedom-Justice]

Donkey Kong was actually the first video game I played. I used to watch my husband than boyfriend in high school play the Pac-Man and then Mrs Pac-Man chasing the dot just didn't do a thing for me lol But when donkey Kong came I was ready to join the video world.

japan never cease to amaze me, even putting pikmin in DK rides...

Adding Pikmin to the DK rides is such a fun touch.

Sight lines in the land are terrible, You can see Hogwarts and an industrial car bridge in donkey Kong Country 😭 if Disney did that you guys would kill them

don't forget it's japan, so the experience maybe different from the upcoming nintendo world in america soon

[@Squirel]

It looks like you had a wonderful time and I admit to being more than a little jealous. I love theme parks and I especially like the rides with roller coasters being #1, The food looked amazing - especially the sundae. It was a delicious snack and a souvenir at the same time. Thank you for sharing this experience with us - very cool.

[@experience_japan]

Thank you for your kind words! Theme parks are such a blast, and I’m glad you enjoyed seeing the food and rides. Hope you can visit someday and try that sundae yourself!

[@scaryhobbit211]

14:35 It's amusing with how theme parks are designed that you find yourself in the middle of a lush, lively tropical jungle, with ruins, the minecarts, and drums all around you... ...and then there's Hogwarts towering over the background. It makes you wonder what Harry Potter thinks seeing all this monkey business behind his school.🙃

[@experience_japan]

Haha, exactly! Harry must be wondering if he’s at Hogwarts or in a jungle adventure. Such a fun mix!

[@Harper_Onions]

I'm happy to see wheelchairs exploring the theme park. Makes me wish I could actually visit Japan. Also It'd be nice if they had more Kongs, Rare-ware animal buddies - besides Rambi & Squawks and of course King K.Rool and his Kremling army (which is unlikely but no-one will shut up about them.)

[@experience_japan]

Glad you noticed that! I hope you get a chance to visit Japan someday. More Kongs and Rare characters would definitely be a fun addition!

[@bantaychristopherp.9406]

[@TheSonicFairy]

It finally released!!! My uncle and cousin went to Nintendo Land before the DK section was finished, I hope they go back - I really wanna go with them!

[@experience_japan]

That’s awesome! I hope they get to go back, and it would be amazing if you could join them this time!

[@JustMehere9832]

This is why Japan always gets the good stuff… I really want to live in Japan. It’s looks so much better there.

Thats amazing, you visited Donkey Kong Country on the day it opened ! Great, and thank you for sharing it with us. P.S. I dont like huge crouds, so I would have probably waited a couple of months before visiting. But thanks to your video, I can enjoy it on the opening day, without having to bother about the crowds.

Thank you for watching! I’m so glad you could experience the opening day through my video without the hassle of crowds. Hope you get to visit someday when it’s quieter!

[@leredditcommander8208]

I have been to japan like 6 times already since nintendo world opened and have not been interested in visiting, I visit japan at least twice every year and the crowds at nintendo world are just too much to justify another visit to osaka, even if i love the city, been there many times before so cant justify one more time. My brother and sister already visited and they rarely go to japan, lmao, maybe im just lazy, also going alone is not that fun while my siblings went with their respective partners. Maybe one day.

[@RIP2UALL]

Oh my god, it's PERFECT.

Not the hugest fan of Donkey Kong but this new addition looks great! That roller coaster looked like it'd be a lot of fun too! Especially for those who don't like the crazy thriller ones with huge drops and loops. The hot dog looked tasty as well! 😋 Can't wait till Nintendo World comes to Orlando!

The ride will sure disappoint a lot of person. The same person who didn't like the Mario area. But I loved this last one and I'm really impressed of how they create the whole land. So much effort into little details and as the Mario area, you're 1000% surrounded in 360 by the world of DK this time. Even the rollercoaster itself is quite "unique" (obviously it exist but I never did something like this) with a whole new type of mechanics to make the illusion works. The park is for children and family and people need to understand that. I just hope that the watch works in the two areas cause it's still expensive
