One more, I have been hearing that the animatronics have been breaking down all around the park, is this true? How so?

Thanks!

Yes, I have been on Koopa's challenge. The story is that mario got invited to a race by Bowser. Throughout the queue, you can see Bowser's office. There is a factory that makes Bob-ombs and we see Bowser is trying to sabotage the race somehow. You can see the MarioKart TV truck and all.

Yes, there are animatronics on the ride. you can encounter many characters from Super Mario! The ride is a huge mix between projections and physical elements. The AR goggles only add more elements such as other racers (Luigi, Mario etc) I’ve been on the ride twice and the animatronics seem fine. Some may freeze but that's because you threw a shell at it!

The park itself is very cool. It’s very immersive and the theming is done really well. The power-up bands are about $33 each!

There is already a video on the ride. Animatronics are on the ride. This is a construction website, not a discussion one. Not trying to be rude, but one of the mods stated that a couple of days ago.

Great overview of the entire land, with his reviews of the rides and food. Plus, some smaller details I haven't seen before.

Super Nintendo World has now been added to the Universal Studios Japan map on the official app but it is still not on the website or PDF in-park version of the map:
