Since entry qualifications have been provided in advance through online lottery and admission times are arranged at different times, it is expected that the number of general consumers entering the venue for the experience from July 7th to 5th will be controlled at a certain number, so there should not be excessive crowding.
However, some of the more popular new games may still have long queues. Therefore, in addition to adding more experience machines for "Mario Kart World" and "Donkey Kong Banana Power Up", consumers entering the experience must also scan a QR code on their mobile phone to join the official Nintendo LINE account.

When the collection time opens, select the game you want to try, confirm the desired experience time period and the number of participants, and then you can collect the experience coupon for that time period.
After receiving the experience voucher, go to the experience area according to the experience time and show the experience voucher to the staff.

However, please note that the time period for experience coupons is limited to 2 hours after admission, and the number of experience coupons for each time period is limited. In addition, only those who sign up for the experience as a family group can receive multiple experience coupons at the same time, but all members must enter the experience at the time.
