We have been captivated by the idea of Super Nintendo World ever since we heard of its inception. On our last podcast, we talked about some photos that had surfaced on Twitter of the park in Japan. They were great to see, but they were still grainy and at a distance. We put out a call for someone to get an aerial photo of the park, and just a couple days later, we have it!
[UPDATE: We apologize, but Universal Studios has asked the photographer to take the photo down, so we have also taken down our image.]
