Overseas visitors to Nintendo’s museum in Japan have been causing trouble by violating the “no-photography” rule, as reported by Japanese site ‘Nintendo Every’. Social media posts featuring hardware prototypes from the museum have gone viral, sparking concerns about the potential for new rules to be implemented by Nintendo.
It’s not uncommon for museums to have rules against photography in certain areas, and it’s important for visitors to respect these guidelines. Recent incidents, such as a museum visitor unplugging a Super Nintendo controller, highlight the need for visitors to be mindful of the rules and regulations in place.
Japan has seen a significant increase in tourist numbers in recent years, leading to the implementation of new restrictions and fees. However, some tourists have been criticized for not respecting local rules, culture, and laws. This behavior can have negative consequences for both tourists and the companies or organizations they visit.
In the age of social media, it has become increasingly challenging for companies to enforce rules and regulations, as seen with Nintendo’s recent Switch Online playtest. Despite requests for participants not to share content, footage from the playtest quickly made its way onto social media and the internet.

He emphasizes the importance of following museum rules and guidelines, as well as respecting the property and exhibits on display. Visitors to Nintendo’s museum should take the time to familiarize themselves with the rules or consult with museum staff before taking any photos.
It’s essential for tourists to be mindful of local customs and regulations when visiting foreign countries, and to show respect for the places they visit. By following the rules and guidelines set out by museums and other attractions, visitors can help ensure a positive and enjoyable experience for themselves and others.
