Nintendo will open its first museum on October 2 in Kyoto, located in a renovated factory where it originally produced playing cards. The museum will feature vintage video games, interactive exhibits, and a sneak preview from Shigeru Miyamoto, highlighting Nintendo's commitment to play and originality. Key attractions include a giant two-person controller and an interactive game featuring Super Mario characters. The museum's establishment is part of Nintendo's strategy to diversify revenue streams, following the success of its Super Nintendo World theme park.
