I’m already in Japan. I’ve been seeing about advanced bookings like two months in advanced for places like this. Can you not just get tickets on the day? I have no idea how this works.
I wouldn’t risk waiting until the day of if it’s a must see for you.
If you have the USJ app and get there when the park opens, you can usually reserve an entry ticket for Nintendo World as soon as you get in the park.
I don’t think it’s that hard to get advance tickets for Disney since you can just buy them in convenient stores BUT with Nintendo world, you can get USJ tickets the same day but that wouldn’t guarantee you an entry pass for Nintendo world. People buy the ticket in advance so they can register it on their phone because you need to have some luck and be really fast with the app to get entry ticket. People who are lining up at the entrance are also on their phones trying to get the same entry pass.
PS. People buy in advance so they don’t have to line up for the tickets (both Disney and USJ) because by the time you are buying tickets, the queue for attractions are getting longer. And when I say long sometimes it goes up to 180 mins for popular attractions.

Is it really that hard to just look at the ticket reservation page?

Edit:
You can buy same day tickets at the park but if its too busy you might be out of luck.
