Nintendo Coming to Universal Parks

[fryoj]

It's a national holiday. Doubtful they'd announce anything today.

 

[Mad Dog]

Also, this has been a particularly tough Monday.. maybe its knowing my digital director will be out for the next 2 weeks meaning the next highest up (me) has to go to all client meetings, sales pitches, internals, etc. I HATE MEETINGS.

If I get through the next two weeks it will be a miracle, then I'm off to Beaver Creek for a long week and a half of skiing.. well deserved vacation after this hell.

I would doubt there would be announcements on MLK day, a holiday. EDIT:FRYOJ beat me to it by a millisecond.

 

[Imperius]

Yeah, but a man can wish.

 

[Imperius]

I guess they announce something the day after Avatar opens at AK, detailed concept art and everything.

They aren't waiting that long.

Universal has a reputation to take the spotlight from Disney

Yes, they do have a habit of doing that.

 

[anihilnation]

I'd say announce the day Avatar opens!

 

[Imperius]

Why though? This is still 3 years out while that is opening. No one is going to say hey Avatar is now open, but Nintendo will be in Orlando in 3 years. Let's not go to Avatar. It's better to announce earlier so people can delay plans.

...."Also, Universal announced today" makes Disney cringe...Nobody likes to share attention

Agreed, pure popularity and social media war. Attendance is not much an issue for either park, so now they can fight over media presence.

Oo, i love meetings - probably because i love assembling binders of info for people. I have my own comb binding machine. I love the smell a copier makes.

I finished on show once and as a gift to me the director and lead designer got me a Staples giftcard.

You seem like an easy person to buy gifts for

So walking in an office store is like walking in an adult store :tongue:

Disney announces Avatarland opening day - Universal announces VB opening day

Disney opens Avatarland - Universal announces Nintendoland

Two spotlights stolen.

They just are not waiting until summer to announce this. They will give people time to digest closing of KidZone and get visits in before closing it down. They will need to close KidZone soon to allow for construction.

The closures of Disaster and Twister were only announced a week or two beforehand. Ain't no way KidZone would get more than that. Maybe if E.T. closes, too.

 

[Imperius]

I'm thinking there is a big difference between two single rides and a whole kids area with already limited kid attractions.

 

[Imperius]

If I'm wrong I'll buy all the people who claimed it a beer.

I really can't see them closing ET unless they offer SS the moon or something

"Mr. Spielberg, here's the moon."
