The exhibition runs through the universe of Super Mario Bros, Nintendo’s famous video game created by Shigueru Miyamoto in the 80's. Three zones "invaded" by the characters of the legendary video game.

In the first area, Miyamoto's way, the visitor finds a route through an explanatory panel of Miyamoto´s work. Besides, between panel and panel, there are videogame consoles which allow visitors to play with different games, including older versions of Nintendo videogames.
In the second zone, Garden Super Mario, Super Mario in an Augmented World (indoor version), and Game Over. In Super Mario Garden, a group of automaton characterized as Super Mario figures move freely through the space.

Finally, the third zone is a mixed area in which visitors can create, through a game console, their drawings inspired by Super Mario universe. In the same room, a forest of images and limited reproductions of Super Mario hang from the ceiling, highlighting the many aspects of the character in popular culture.
