Super Nintendo World will debut new Power-Up Bands to interact with the land-but do you really need one? These pieces of wearable tech are $40 each but they are worth paying two-thirds the prices of a Nintendo Switch video game? To answer these questions, I stopped by Super Nintendo World during a technical rehearsal to show you a first-hand look at what using a Power-Up Band is like. As a theme park experience expert, I list the pros and cons of these bracelets while giving my final review.
🍄 Power-Up Bands are available to purchase at the 1-Up Store in Super Nintendo World as well as kiosks in the center of the land. Other stores in Universal Studios Hollywood and CityWalk will also sell them once the land officially opens on Feb 17, 2023. Unfortunately, there are no annual pass discounts for Power-Up Bands. I also recommend downloading the Universal Studios mobile app and creating an account before your visit.

Yes!! It would be great if you could redeem, points for physical Super NINTENDO World items. Like other places do exchange tickets for prices.

@jeanettesmith765 Год назад

You already have to pay admission to the park and then have to pay another $40 for the wristband. That is not cool, in my opinion.

@magazinekirby 6 месяцев назад

Yeah at that point it gets pricier than even Disney

@rachm8072 2 месяца назад

For me personally it’s worth it as you can use it in other parks as well. To be honest it’s definitely necessary in Japan as they have note block rock, bombom kaboom room and the slot machine where Hollywood is quite small in comparison.

I went last Friday and got a Mario band. I lost it by the end of the day because the bracelet part is horrible. I had to report it to Lost & Found. They miraculously found my band and returned it to me by mail. Just wish the band was like the Disneyland Magic Bands. Those are more like a regular watch band that clips on.

@ronalburgos3855 Год назад

Exactly my thoughts yesterday March 15th 2023 we went with my sister, I got the yoshi band and she got the toad band and yes I see how easily you could lose it. :(

Nintendo World looks soo cool & FUNN! ✨🏰🍄🐢♥️

@drmiteshtrivedi Год назад

I got the gold Mario power up band at USJ. It was totally worth it. Truly that's the way the park was designed to be accessed, otherwise you're just waiting in lines for the rides or spending money at the shops. I wish I had more time; after collecting the keys the park was closing and I didn't have an opportunity to go to Bowser Jr. My timed entry to Nintendo World was at 5pm, so two hours is definitely not enough time to visit the area.

@justinanderson6287 Год назад

Aww jealous you got the gold one! Wish they did that in Hollywood or had a way to buy them online.

Do I need the app for the power up band to work?

@karenstagliano1217 Год назад

Would someone be able to do the Boss Battle (the one at 2:20 in this video) if they didn't have a power up band? I don't mean the part about earning the key, but could you do anything physically to just have fun? We bought power up bands at preview last weekend, but the line for the battle was too long, and one of my friends is asking what things they couldn't do if they didn't buy a band

@DavidVaughn Год назад

The Bowser Jr. Boss Battle has a scanner at the front of the attraction where guests tap their power-up bands. If you’ve completed all 3 it will grant you entry. However, if you don’t have a band or haven’t completed all the tasks, ask the Team Member at the front of the experience if you can enter anyway. Depending on space you may be able to

@bowser1299 Год назад

Definitely a Mario Band. Wish they had a Bowser one

@DarielSilveiro Год назад

not having a Bowser band is a crime

@kyungandmichael4582 Год назад

Do you know if people are re-selling their bands? I guess it depends on whether it's re-programmable to a new account/profile?

@DavidVaughn Год назад

I haven’t heard of anyone reselling their old one. But you can unlink it from your account

@michellegreuel2605 Год назад

Can we connect more than one band to the app? For example, as a family of 4 with two kids who don’t have their own phones, can we connect their bands to my app as well?

@aloeandhe4432 Год назад

Yes you can. Scan the bands to the one phone and set your character.

When it opens on the Grand opening will the Power-Bands get cheaper?

@DavidVaughn Год назад

I don’t think so. I think that’s just the price

@ravenclaw7971 5 месяцев назад

I would totally get one once Epic Universe opens, it reminds me of the interactive wands in the Wizarding World, I've always had one rule going to the Universal Parks, if you're not gonna immerse yourself in Super Nintendo World or the Wizarding World, then that's not a perfect day at Universal.

@Jal0930 Год назад

Does anyone know if these are reusable. By that I mean can I give/sell/loan my used power up band and someone else sync it to their app and use it?

@DiGGy539 5 месяцев назад

Yes I watched another video and she said she borrowed a friend’s band who had been before.

@bradchin7746 10 месяцев назад

Does this band work in Universal Japan?

@bradchin7746 9 месяцев назад

The good part is the bands do work in Japan too. And the bands are cheaper in Japan because of the exchange rate. Finally, Mario World in Japan is bigger than the one here. The kart ride is longer too with better AR hats.

@arikat007 8 месяцев назад

Can you share a band? Everyone take turns with one band? Will they let your whole group into Bowser? Also do you have to complete the challenge in one day? We are going for two days

@mattmobilee 6 месяцев назад

Can my family link multiple wristbands with just one phone and one app?

@jozjawsjawz Месяц назад

You can link multiple accounts per app! Me and my little sister both only use my phone, each band chooses their own player name, pose, and background

@arthuraraujo258 Год назад

Geez, you already pay a high price for admission and potentially an extra $30 if you get Early Access. Besides you'll most likely buy merch. That should be enough for you to get 100% of the experience, having to pay an extra $40 for this wrist band is ridiculous.

@Kovu1224 10 месяцев назад

Just went to universal studios. To see Mario world. I think the power up band is an interesting idea but once you leave the area it’s useless. So I just bought a t shirt and toadstool 🍄 hat for souvenirs.

@shackob.9607 Год назад

Have 3 kids. Just buy one.. to much waste of money for 3 hours😅

@justinanderson6287 Год назад

3 hours? I think you’re severely underestimating it.. We spent over 8 hours in there, lol. My son was like a kid in a candy store and I had a blast reliving nostalgic childhood memories. The bands are totally worth it given how much money most people are already spending on tickets, flights and hotels assuming they’re on vacation, etc. What’s an extra $40 on top of 2k? But I only have one kid.. 3 definitely puts more of a strain on your budget.
