Super Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto led a Nintendo Direct presentation yesterday (December 18), taking fans on a tour of the upcoming Super Nintendo World theme park.
Appearing out of a warp pipe and referring to himself as “Mario’s dad,” the video saw Miyamoto walking around the park, beginning in the lobby of Peach’s Castle. The tour included many never-before-seen elements of the park, such as the animatronic Goombas and Koopas.
Miyamoto also explained the park’s Power Up wristband, which can be used to activate hidden secrets. These bands come in six different varieties (Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Toad, or Yoshi), and can be linked to your phone while inside the park.
