Super Nintendo World is meant to be an interactive and immersive experience for Mario, Luigi, and Donkey Kong fans of all ages.
When not waiting in line or riding rollercoasters, fans can play mini-games; however, if you’re looking for an adrenaline rush, you’ll find it with attractions like “Mine-Cart Madness,” located in Donkey Kong Country.
Guests are excited to hear the good news and share their support on social media.
Finally a reason to return to Orlando
