Museum visitors are given 10 digital coins they can use to play the games, but be warned: it’s not possible to buy additional ones, so players will need to strategize and choose wisely.

This is so idiotic, yet somehow still 100% on brand for Nintendo.

It almost reads like a satire article, it's quite ridiculous.

It sounds more like a shitty arcade.

I'm assuming it's to make sure there's not long waits to try them. Giving a set number of tokens to visitors means they can roughly control the amount of time someone spends with those games. One person can't just buy 100 coins and spend all day on the same game.

Could have just done a ticketing system reserved in advance with fixed time blocks, though. But then your museum tour is on a schedule.

The games there better not run on any emulators.

First ride will be a court room with Weird Al’s “I’ll sue ya” playing as elevator music

Followed immediately by the world's first execution over counterfeit entrance tickets. $60 bucks is $60 bucks.

"...filled with framed lawsuits and litigations against their fans."

They can go suck on a tailpipe and die in the sewer.

What are they exhibiting? Lawsuits?

So when's the cease and desist coming?

Just don't post about your visit to YouTube.

Never thought I'd say this, but I'd be down to vandalize this "museum".
