Nice visit to Universal studios with my wife, but I would recommend not going in the middle of summer as you will get cooked! Not alot of shade, the humidity is killer in july! Heaps of rides, stuff to see, but having to pay extra for nintendo is ridiculous as you will already spend a fortune just getign into the main park as well as food drinks and shopping. Have seen every universal studio now , osaka has the most attractions but is extremely busy and expensive so not my favorite.

The scenes in the movie are 100% restored, and the immersion and experience are very realistic. It feels like I am Harry Potter and I can fly. If I had a magic wand, the experience would be even better. Although the weather is a bit hot, there are many resting places in the scene.

The Super Nintendo World in Universal Studios Osaka is not particularly fun, but the scenery of this world is so dreamy that it feels like you have really walked into the game world. The park has been further expanded this year. Nintendo is still too comprehensive. I look forward to visiting again.
