Where's "That Darn Nintendo contract" when you need it to settle terms of use between the two companies once and for all?

I think the popular phrase here is, "It's happening until it isn't."It's definitely one of those things
I just don’t see anything new after Jurassic till 2025 myself. Regardless of rumors.
You can look forward to having Horror Nights again and not having to stand on a damn physical distance dot everywhere you go.Well that's a shame. Would be nice to have something new to look forward to. At least when the economy went down in 2008 they were already underway with WWHOP and had a giant attraction that's still paying off. It helped draw people back in when things were better. I'm hoping things will be better sooner rather than later and having a new Nintendo land to capitalize on the recovery would be great. Waiting to build until after things are better is the safer bet I guess but just means a longer wait. It's not my money so let me dream about having it sooner :tease:
Minus the E-ticket lockers coming to FJKeep in mind, that not much else was in the pipeline prior to all this madness.

Like every industry—like most individuals—we’re all taking this crisis one day at a time. There’s a lot of possibilities to what will come next. Let’s hope the future is bright soon, for all our sakes....There seems to be a lot of misplaced confidence in this thread.
This may be a good time to remind everyone on how insiders work. Insiders typically share information they hear from sources within the company. Good insiders typically manage how much information is shared to safeguard their sources (otherwise they don't stay insiders for long). There are many people on this board, including Mods, who have more inside knowledge than the average user. Pre-Covid, when an insider disclosed information, we knew there was always a chance of things changing (Ironically, Nintendo in KZ prior to EU is a great example). If we have learned anything from this situation is that information is changing faster than ever before. Beyond that, sources are at varying levels in the company. Which could explain why we are constantly hearing conflicting reports, even among our most trusted insiders. Even @Alicia, as reliable as her info has been these past few years, makes a huge point to temper expectations and clarify that things are ever changing. This all makes it incredibly naive to pass on on insider's information as a fact (let alone your own fact, but I digress).
Soapbox over. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
It seems to me that, as of now, all big decisions are being put off until the end of the year. Other than additional cutbacks, I’m not expecting anything, not even rumors, for awhile.I think what we’re running to a strange confluence of rumor, logic, and desire. And, to a degree, they’re not necessarily jiving with each other whereas they typically do.
Based on logic and desire, it makes sense for the EU projects (and especially SNW) to just move back to the current parks. They way were get them all sooner. The rumor however, is that they’re standing pat.
That rumor makes sense logically too, as EU will serve as a great draw once as we end the recovery. That means we have to wait longer though, which isn’t really something any of us actually want.
In the void of information and movement, that conflict is going to gnaw.

It’s going to be hard to sit tight, and not help but wonder.
Fwiw, we never had a problem with any speculation. We never said to stop and I’ve even posted that my intention of sharing what I know was not meant to stop conversation. Unfortunately, our forums have been used as a source of info, right or wrong; so we have to remind the realities, including assumed ones. TBH Some of this push back comes from some of y’all’s own issues with Joe.
