Last month, Universal Studios announced that it would be offering previews of Super Nintendo World in Hollywood to Annual Pass Holders – with reservations starting on 5 January 2023. Well, it looks like demand for this early sneak-peek got a little too hot for the company to handle.

Universal Studios has now acknowledged that a “network outage” affected its website when it opened these reservations – which prevented Annual Pass Holders from booking their visit to Super Nintendo World. As a result, the company has now stated that it will re-open registrations on 9 Jan 2023 (11 am PST) instead.

As reported previously, these special previews of the Nintendo-themed park will take place on 29 – 31 January 2023, 3 – 4 February 2023, and 8 – 11 February 2023. Following that, Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Hollywood will officially open to the public on 17 February 2023.

We’ll report back as we hear more in the future. Stay tuned.
