If you are a Nintendo fan, then you surely have heard of the iconic Donkey Kong. Starting in December, Universal Studios Japan (USJ) in Osaka will be opening a brand new Donkey Kong theme park, full of rides, food, and exclusive merchandise featuring your favourite Donkey Kong characters!
Yes, we know, USJ is not technically in Tokyo, but we know many people in Tokyo will take the quick shinkansen bullet train over to Osaka just to visit this awesome theme park. Tickets will surely be sold out quickly, so make sure you plan ahead and look at all the various options to make your day more enjoyable!
