Some interesting news has surfaced regarding the Super Nintendo World theme park that is currently under construction in Japan.
Over on the video streaming website Vimeo, fans discovered a set of hidden video clips that appeared to be previews for the official Super Nintendo World website, speculated to belong to the web designer for the page. The hidden video clips provide viewers with an extensive tour of the site, including design renders, transitions, and more.
The videos even go as far as to show off pictures of real people enjoying some of the rides and attractions that will be present when the park opens, specifically the Mario Kart ride.
Finally, the videos contain some additional details about the Mario Kart and Yoshi rides, “Toad’s Cafe”, and more:
