Wall graphics expressing the world of Nintendo's popular game "Super Mario", which measure approximately 2.8 meters in height and approximately 100 meters in length, have appeared this fall along the Shijo-dori underpass in the heart of Kyoto. Whole families will have fun with them where Mario, Luigi, Koopa, etc. are depicted. It is also possible at Nintendo KYOTO, which has just opened close by, to purchase goods exclusive to Kyoto. Both the wall graphics and the store are located very near Kyoto-kawaramachi Station of Hankyu Railway, making it easy to stop by even during sightseeing.
