Super Nintendo World (UOR) - General Discussion Thread

They’ve had a patent for “occlusion” for a while now, and we had theorized on the forums it would debut with Orlando’s version. This should prevent the AR characters from driving over top of the heads of the riders in the front row when you’re seated in back row then if that’s what it is.

This gone improve the AR immensely making this the version of the ride as they intended it. This bumped this ride much higher on my list if I ever make it to Orlando.

While I’m glad we are getting updated visuals , it would have been nice if all of the land was a little bigger . Since they literally started with a blank footprint they could have done even more than just copy Japan and part of California

It technically is a *little* bigger. With like 10 feet more courtyard space, yay!

Seems like they could have added more power up band experiences or maybe make a slightly larger restaurant ? Oh well.

The restaurant is larger and has some more seats than Japan (and a lot more than Hollywood).

Well that’s good to hear I guess.

I was hoping this was the case and of course as always Alicia delivered with her response.

This might be a question too early to ask into previews, but has anyone been able to use a Power-Up Band purchased in Hollywood at Epic Universe?

I don't know if anyone's specifically mentioned it here, but Universal did come out and say that you will be able to link your pre-existing band from USH and their app to the USF app for Epic.

My assumption is that they will be able to work at both because they don't store data on the bands themselves, but act as communication between your band and your unique ID on the app. This stands to reason that a different app would be able to enter the same code and have no conflicts in activation and use across either apps/either parks.

Correct. Each app will store separate data for you at each of the Super Nintendo World lands... so even though you are using the same Power-Up Band in three different SNW's across the globe, all your stats will be different in each.

In other words, scores and achievements do not carry over between lands, but you are able to hold separate data for all lands at same time.

When it comes to Power-Up bands, Epic Universe will be the Super Mario Brothers: the Lost Levels to Hollywood's Super Mario Bros is what I'm interpreting this all as right now.

That's a spot-on analogy of the two main US parks' SNWs!
