The first gold coins and a Mario flag are visible amidst the construction of Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Construction is visible from the balcony near Super Silly Fun Land in the Upper Lot.

Since our last update, some scaffolding has been removed from Bowser’s Castle.

Dark grey stone is visible on the bottom half of the castle, while the top half remains covered in black tarps.

The castle is the last section to receive major theming. Mount Beanpole towers over the land, with clouds sticking out of it.

Brown and black tarps cover the land’s tunnel entrance, near Transformers: The Ride 3D.

We can see some small elements covered by white tarps. Several of them are red with white polka dots — piranha plants.

Restrooms are visible at the bottom of the tiered land.

From another vantage point on the StarWay escalators between the upper and lower lots, we can see a row of three gold coins (lower center of the photo above).

They are in front of blue, yellow, and red boxes decorated with diamond patterns.

The next time we checked on the land, we saw a Mario flag atop Mount Beanpole.

An American flag was up here once before, but it didn’t last long. The Mario flag is a small red triangle with the “M” logo.

From above, we saw a few other new elements.

A Goomba is visible atop one wall (center left in the photo above).

The gold coins are now covered with a tarp. A Thwomp is next to them.

Another Thwomp is on the base of Mount Beanpole.

Super Nintendo World will open in early 2023 at Universal Studios Hollywood. It already exists at Universal Studios Japan and is under construction at Universal Orlando Resort in Epic Universe.
