The museum built a giant "Big King Kong" arcade, and Nintendo helped.

CTOnews.com, April 11 (Xinhua) "King Kong" is a classic arcade game and a well-known IP under Nintendo. The National Toy Museum in New York has announced that a giant 20-foot arcade will be on display on June 30, allowing visitors to experience the charm of the game. It is reported that Nintendo has also provided guidance and support for the project.

According to CTOnews.com, the street cabinet will be fully installed on June 30 for museum visitors to play with, with a control device at normal height, so people can play without climbing ladders.

The game "King Kong" was first released in 1981, and Mario made his debut in the game, when he was also called Jumpman and Mr. Video. The protagonist of the game is a gorilla named King Kong, who grabs Mario's girlfriend Pauline and imprisons her on the top floor of the building. Mario must avoid the bucket and fireball thrown by King Kong, climb the ladder and finally rescue Pauline.

This giant King Kong arcade will become one of the largest playable arcades in the world and may break the Guinness World record. At present, the tallest arcade in Guinness World Records is a 16-foot "Tetris" arcade. In addition, a "NBA JAM" arcade of the same height was unveiled at the CES exhibition in 2020.

The National Toy Museum in New York is a museum dedicated to displaying various forms of games and is home to the World Hall of Fame for video games. Every year, the museum adds new games to the Hall of Fame, including classic games such as Legend of Zelda: flute of time and Dance Dance Revolution in 2022.
