American cable television company Comcast announced on Tuesday that it is aiming to make Universal Studios Japan (USJ) its wholly owned subsidiary by the end of April.
Nintendo revealed in December that it plans to open a “Super Nintendo World” theme park at the Universal Studios Japan park in Osaka before the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.
Comcast is already expanding Universal Studios parks in the United States and Singapore, and a new park is under construction in Beijing.
Universal Studios Japan celebrated its 15th anniversary last year.
