Miyamoto: Nintendo Won’t Be Opening Museums In Other Locations

The Nintendo Museum looks amazing but it’s located in Japan and not everybody will be able to make the trip. So, is there a chance of Nintendo opening more museums outside of its homeland?

Well, as you can see in the headline, according to Miyamoto this won’t be happening. In a recent Game Watch interview, the Nintendo legend mentioned how the company had “no intention” of expanding its museum to other locations.

He goes on to explain how it’s not a “business project” and is more about educating employees and the general public:

Shigeru Miyamoto: “This was not created as a business project, but rather to help Nintendo employees understand Nintendo better, and to help the general public learn more about Nintendo. So we have no intention of expanding it to other locations.

He went on to reveal the only thing being considered is how to further develop the new museum located in Kyoto, Japan – so it can “keep up with Nintendo’s developments” in the future.

If you do want to see Nintendo’s history then, it seems you’ll just have to make the trip to Japan. And if you do make the journey, be on the lookout for some seriously cool merch:
