And, even my 5 year old was bored after 20 minutes in Suess.Splatoon is an upcoming game for Nintendo's Wii U console. The poor Lost Continent needs to be put out of its misery. Outside of the WWoHP area, this park is desperately in need of a makeover. Velocicoaster looks to be a nice addition, which is good because the Jurassic Park section is showing its age, and it is again based on a water ride, while well themed, you can find elsewhere.

Kong is another motion simulator, and not even a real good one. All of the Sunday Comics represented in this area have been out of print for years! Hagar the Horrible? Cathy? Blondie? and those are the recognizable ones. Looking at IOA - Hulk and Spider-man are great rides, but anything in toon lagoon that you can't get at any other park (Disney, regional, etc?) It's two rides themed to cartoons we had to explain to our kids. We were all disappointed with Gringott's.the ride is 'ok' but the sound quality is so poor, you cannot understand any of the dialogue. Forbidden Journey, while groundbreaking at the time, has been absolutely lapped by flight of passage. Outside of Hagrid's, the rides there are showing their age. I just spent four days at Universal Orlando, my 8 and 5 year old's first trip to Universal after two times at Disney.

It looks like a small upgrade on the typical Universal experience. If UC can replicate and expand on this with future installations of this land (I'm looking at you Epic Universe), this could absolutely set a new standard for themed entertainment and leveraging IP in theme parks to the fullest. The wristbands help to link the real world with the virtual one created through the app, and should be a hit with a generation that has grown up with a smart phone in their hands. The wristband/app features appear pretty similar to those wand effects, but take it a step further with the gaming aspects that fit right in with the Mario theme and the audience that is increasingly spending time on their phones playing progressive puzzle games (like Candy Crush, Best Fiends, etc.). The extra experiences unlocked by the wristbands look really cool too, and something Disney is struggling with after trying to find an answer to the WWoHP wands. However, all accounts are that it is a visual smorgasbord that will only get better as UC fine tunes the balance between AR, screens, and physical effects. Of course the Mario Cart Ride will be impossible to gauge on videos alone, as the AR aspects of this attraction make it impossible to evaluate without physically experiencing it first hand. The Yoshi ride reminds me a lot of Alice in Wonderland with outdoor and indoor sections (just using an omni-mover platform instead of blocked cars), and while it doesn't look like the most thrilling attraction, it appears to be a more capable sidekick to the Mario Cart attraction than Na'Vi River Journey is to Flight of Passage (but not as good as MF:SR is to RotR). However, I think it really captures the feel of the Mario games and that heart of the franchise. Thank you.ДЄt first glance, this looks a bit on the corny/campy/chintzy side.

The land also will be installed at Universal Studios Singapore, though no opening date has been revealed for there, either. Super Nintendo World also is coming to the new Epic Universe theme park at Universal Orlando Resort, which now is expected to open in 2025. Universal has not announced an opening date for that installation, but the current state of construction suggests a 2022 opening. The next opening for Super Nintendo World will be at Universal Studios Hollywood, where Super Nintendo World is now under construction on the park's Lower Lot. We look forward to sharing Super Nintendo World with our fans in Japan and bringing the experience to life at other Universal theme park destinations in the future.' 'This will surely amaze and delight not only fans of the park, but also Nintendo fans around the world. 'Super Nintendo World is the perfect blend of Nintendo games and theme park experiences, and brings the world of these incredibly popular games to life,' Universal Parks & Resorts Chairman and CEO Tom Williams said. On Wednesday, Universal Creative leaders Thierry Coup and Tom Geraghty talked from Orlando about the development of Super Nintendo World, detailing behind-the-scenes moments over the six years of the interactive attraction's development: Go Inside the Making of Universal's Super Nintendo World
