Shinjuku Joypolis (新宿ジョイポリス) was a Joypolis indoor amusement theme park. Located on the 10th and 11th floors of the Takashimaya Times Square department store and among its original tenants, it was one of the complex's main draws on the opening day in October 1996.
The park became the first Joypolis to be closed permanently in August 2000. The closure was attributed to lower than expected visitor numbers, with competition from the flagship Tokyo Joypolis location situated elsewhere in the capital officially cited.[2]
