Nintendo Coming to Universal Parks

[Orlan d'Oh]

No screenZZZ but what about mapping ? :whistle:

 

[Imperius]

One cannot compare Nintendo to anything else out there visually. I cannot think of an attraction in Orlando as bright and colorful as what Uni has come up with. LOTS of primary colors; one more than the other. Too, compared to the short feeling of Kong one of these Nintendo attractions seems far longer than Kong due to the dazzling visuals both tangible and not. It is actually half+ of Kong time.

Holy crap. You know that much about this land? Jealous

Teebin if I recalled, mentioned for Mariokart that they are going to possibly include screens onto the ground..perhap's something like this onto it should be how it will be implemented.

Although a question about something to @Teebin; you mentioned that it will be a busbar for Mario Kart, yes? If that's the case, could we expect something similar in its use of motions, much like Indiana Jones from Disneyland, or am I wrong about that?

Fortunately and unfortunately, yes.

Yes

Not that I can tell... both are small capacity per vehicle.

Hmm..then I wonder if they may use something similar to the ride vehicles from SF's Justice League attractions.

So do you guys think Star Wars or Nintendo will be the better land? I think they should be opening around the same time if I'm not mistaken?

Both are going to be spectacular and amazing, but I'm more excited for Nintendo (which is saying something as Star Wars is very close at second tied with Volcano Bay).

I love hearing all this. Walking into this land will be like a dream come true. If I hear the opening title theme of Super Mario World (my first video game) playing in the background as well, I might actually cry

Nostalgia is one hell of a drug.

which is essentially a milder version of the SCOOP vehicles on spiderman.

I'm gone for one weekend and I come back to all this Nintendo news? Holy crap!

It is actually half+ of Kong time.

Btw, which ride are you mostly describing here?

So Universal's version of its a small world with Nintendo characters....that actually sounds epic

I mentioned a few pages back of Sinbad from TDS.. If it has a flowing narrative, then that I think is best to compare (but that's just me).

Nethertheless, if that one particular attraction is a boat ride..it could actually pose solving ANOTHER issue that UOR has had.

More like a remake of this....

Boat ride? All we've heard is coaster, bussbar dark ride, and Omnimover.

...Would it be Orchestral though, that's the question.

Would that be possibly included within Yoshi's Island for instance..or are we talking something else.

I would imagine that it's not impossible that they could do a Boat ride, if they redo the entire ET Building from the inside and out.

Espescially considering Madagascar from USS, it's not impossible.

AKA, Madasgcar from USS was 1.24 acres; compared to ET's 1.33 Acres.

 

[Teebin]

No boat rides that I know of...

Well, it was a assumption on my part; as it would of made some sense with that "Small World" comment.

Although that does make me wonder, if YI does come and takes over ET; would they remove the building altogether, or find a way to repurpose it for Yoshi? That; could be an interesting question.

Teebin said it was shorter than Kong and boat rides tend to be at least 8 minutes minimum
