While it took $400 million to build the Harry Potter area at Universal Studios Japan, Nintendo Land may cost "beyond $500 million".

MULTIPLE attractions/restaurants/stores are being jointly developed between Nintendo and Universal Studios Japan.

Looking like there is a possibility that Nintendo Land will be "officially announced" (unveiled?) to the public sometime before year's end.
