The location is very easy to reach by train. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I went there on a weekday, Monday. The staff was friendly and very informative. You can get stickers from the staff by asking, "Sumimasen, do you have stickers?" They will give you cute stickers. Good luck 😊

About Universal Studios Japan

To make the most of your adventure at SUPER NINTENDO WORLD™, guests are encouraged to secure either an “Area Timed Entry Ticket: Advance Booking” or a “Standby Entry Ticket”. These tickets help manage crowd flow and ensure everyone gets the best possible experience. Depending on the day, tickets might run out fast, so it’s best to grab yours early! Sometimes you may be able to enter without one, but it’s not guaranteed.

For an even smoother visit, consider getting a Universal Express Pass, which includes access without needing a separate Area Timed Entry Ticket. Keep in mind that attractions, restaurants, shops, and photo spots inside the park may close or pause operations without prior notice.

💡 Pro tip: Download the Universal Studios Japan official app before your visit. It’s the easiest way to check ticket availability, get your Area Timed Entry Ticket, and stay updated in real time, so you can spend less time waiting and more time enjoying the magic!
