I'm drooling over the merch and shop opportunities so much that I can't even think about rides right now.
So...will there be unique Amiibo's or special dlc (cosmetic) for your Switch games at the park and how do you feel about that?
Oh man... I played that game a LOT when I was younger... brings back memories.That reminds me a lot of the Disney game VMK. One of its big gimmicks was to give you exclusive items if you went to the parks.
Such as...?Robert Niles (on Theme Park Insider) has an interview, concerning the Nintendo land, with Universal's Steve Tatham, VP Creative Group of Universal Studios Japan. (Note:Tatham is a former Disney Imagineer)....Nothing specific, but there are hints at their philosophy of approaching the subject.
Long interview but I believe these are the quotes from Tatham that best hint at their approach for Nintendo............."I've learned that our guests (Universal Japan) know their properties very well (in this section he's referring to Cool Japan and the VR coaster & first ever mobile app in a queue) and the stories we tell need to be faithful and consistent to the IP while creating a whole new experience that the guests have never seen before"...Such as...?
Mario, Zelda, Pokémon.Robert Niles quote in a comment concerning his interview..."everything I've heard from Universal sources tells me that the company sees this as the next Potter-not just a platform for a single land, but for a series of attractions and lands as the years progress"....:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Star Wars Land just confirmed for 2019.
So, how long before Universal chirps in about Nintendo? I give it a day at most
Exciting stuff my friend. Exciting stuff.WHAT IS GOING ON?!?
