This interactive museum is set in the company&#8217;s old factory and offers a deep dive into the iconic video game company\u2019s 135-year history. Visitors are transported back to Nintendo\u2019s origins, when it began as a hanafuda card manufacturer, before journeying through the company&#8217;s groundbreaking transformation into a gaming giant.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6140\" src=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z2.webp 1024w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z2-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z2-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z2-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The museum is spread across three buildings, with each area offering something special. The \u201cCraft and Play\u201d section highlights Nintendo\u2019s humble beginnings with traditional card games, while the \u201cDiscover\u201d hall is a treasure trove for gaming enthusiasts. Here, visitors can find rare limited-edition consoles, prototypes that never made it to market, and displays of nearly every Nintendo product ever released.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6141\" src=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z3-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z3-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z3-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z3-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z3-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of the most exciting features of the museum is the collection of oversized controllers that allow visitors to play classic games like Wii and Famicom on a massive scale. The interactive mini-games, such as \u201cZapper &amp; Scope\u201d and \u201cLove Tester,\u201d provide a fun way to experience iconic moments from Nintendo\u2019s game development history. However, players need to be strategic with the 10 digital coins given for gameplay, as additional coins aren\u2019t available for purchase.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6142\" src=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z4-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z4-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z4-1-600x314.jpg 600w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z4-1-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/z4-1-768x402.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you\u2019re ready to visit, tickets aren\u2019t as easy as walking in. The museum operates via a lottery system, where visitors must apply three months in advance to secure a spot. Priced at 3,300 yen for adults and 2,200 yen for children, tickets are in high demand, so planning ahead is essential. Nintendo\u2019s history, along with playful touches like singing Toad statues and a themed cafe, ensures a memorable and unique experience.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5125\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5125\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5125\" src=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ben-footer-mar2024-1000.png\" alt=\"B\u00e9n\u00e9dicte Lin \u2013 Brussels, Paris, London, Seoul, Bangkok, Tokyo, New York, Taipei, Hong Kong\" width=\"1000\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ben-footer-mar2024-1000.png 1000w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ben-footer-mar2024-1000-600x227.png 600w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ben-footer-mar2024-1000-300x114.png 300w, https:\/\/goutanddesign.com\/wpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ben-footer-mar2024-1000-768x291.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5125\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">B\u00e9n\u00e9dicte Lin \u2013 Brussels, Paris, London, Seoul, Bangkok, Tokyo, New York, Taipei, Hong Kong<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Hashtags:<\/strong> #NintendoMuseum #KyotoTravel #GamingHistory #NintendoFans #VisitJapan #UjiMuseum #RetroGaming #NintendoExhibit<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time : <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>Japan\u2019s new Nintendo Museum, located in Uji near Kyoto, is a must-visit for gaming enthusiasts.
