Visiting the Nintendo Museum in Kyoto is a dream for fans around the world. But if you’ve tried getting tickets, you know how challenging it can be. Tickets are released in small batches, and they can sell out within minutes — often leaving travelers disappointed.
The official ticketing system updates on a fixed schedule, with most dates released weeks or months in advance. However, due to high demand and limited availability, prime dates disappear almost instantly. Last-minute travelers often find the calendar completely booked, even if they check daily.
Before my recent trip to Kyoto, I realized I hadn’t booked a ticket in time. I didn’t want to spend my days constantly refreshing the booking page, so I built a bot that automatically checks the official calendar every 10 minutes and alerts me if new tickets drop.
Thanks to this system, I was able to snag tickets just a few days before my visit — and I got to experience the museum without the stress of constant manual checking.
