Tom Williams, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Universal Parks & Resorts, talking about Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Japan:

We are going to open up next spring. It's a whole new separate area of the park. It's got food. It's got merchandise. The first phase will have two rides, Super Mario Kart ride and as well as Yoshi's Adventures. Yoshi is one of the other Nintendo characters. There will be two rides. The whole land is interactive. And you are going to have a wristband that's got the big red Mario symbol on it. By the way, the wristband is super cool. It's all magnetic. You slap it on your wrist and it just snaps on and it won't come off. And that allows you to, on an interactive basis throughout the entire land which is built on three different levels. It's got all the popular Bowser's deal and Princess Peach's Castle and all the different key elements. And you will be able to go up and keep score and play with the various games and that also translates to a score keeping capability, if you choose to do so within the rides and it actually interfaces back with your game console. So you can build on it and come back again and really got everything going for it.

Supposedly leaked images of Nintendo Land - not 100% sure they are genuine but worth looking over.

New satellite imagery from a month ago

Reported from Orlando but will be used in Japan Nintendo expansion. Patents for ride decor to give the illusion of speed through turns.
