Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking ‘No Photos’ Rule

What’s concerning is the possibility this kind of behaviour could result in Nintendo implementing new rules for certain visitors.

As much as Japan welcomes tourists, there’s been a sharp rise in travellers in recent years – with the country implementing new restrictions and fees in response to this. There have also been some cases where tourists are not respecting the local rules, culture and laws.

Of course, this isn’t the first time something like this has happened and it’s only become harder for companies to police in the age of social media.

Nintendo’s new Switch Online playtest launched this week, and it asked participants to not to “discuss or disclose content”. Unsurprisingly, as soon as it went live, players were streaming and uploading footage of the playtest on social media and elsewhere online.
