Nintendo and Universal Parks & Resorts team up for theme park attractions

Universal Parks & Resorts and Nintendo are partnering up to get Nintendo’s own characters and properties into a number of theme parks such as Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.

The companies will work together on creating “spectacular, dedicated experiences based on Nintendo?s wildly popular games, characters and worlds”.  The development of these attractions is only in the planning stages apparently, so it’ll probably be a while before we can hop aboard a Mario Kart coaster of some sort. So stay tuned for more announcements in the future.

Read on for the announcement.

Nintendo and Universal Parks & Resorts today announced plans to bring the world of Nintendo to life at Universal theme parks ? creating spectacular, dedicated experiences based on Nintendo?s wildly popular games, characters and worlds.

The agreement brings two icons of entertainment together and represents a significant partnership for Nintendo as it expands the reach and popularity of its characters and intellectual property.

Universal theme parks offer incredibly popular, innovative themed family entertainment experiences based on compelling stories and characters ? using powerful storytelling and innovative technology. Nintendo has created remarkable and imaginative worlds filled with captivating stories and beloved characters. Now, for the first time, those stories and characters will be brought to life in entirely new ways ? only at Universal theme parks.

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 be announced in the future, as the Nintendo and Universal creative teams work to create specific concepts.
