Super Nintendo World
- This article is about the real-life Nintendo theme park. For the Wii U game, see Nintendo Land.
Super Nintendo World is a Nintendo-themed area at several Universal Studios theme parks. It consists of a series of attractions, shops, diners, and photo opportunities with various characters.
The original area is located in Universal Studios Japan, and opened on March 18th, 2021. A second Super Nintendo World in Universal Studios Hollywood opened on February 17th, 2023, and future parks are planned for Orlando and Singapore.
Despite primarily focusing on the Mario series, the park features a number of cameos and references to other Nintendo series, such as Pikmin.

Additionally, if one zooms into a hill above the 1-Up Factory sign while looking through the augmented reality binoculars, the binoculars will zoom in further and play a unique animation. The animation is of a Red Pikmin watching a Blue Pikmin carrying a fruit, who trips and drops it onto a Yellow Pikmin.[2] This awards the player with a Pikmin stamp on the Universal Studios app.
