Nintendo Coming to Universal Parks

[Mr. EPCOT]

The DK coaster will be more than enough for that, not to mention the interactive elements in the land

So DK should be at least partially outdoors?

That would cool...only it will close when it rains...unless they pull a Kong

 

[Scott W.]

I know there has been some talk about SNW possibly extending into the land behind Simpsons. Does anybody know what the new building in the north east corner is?

 

[JungleSkip]

The new parade building they put permits up for like 2 years ago.

 

[rcoasterdude]

Wait, there's gonna be a Donkey Kong Coaster? Is it gonna be the mine car cantlever

 

[UniversalRBLX]

This will be one interesting HHN year

 

[Imperius]

This will be one interesting HHN year

Ummmmm does this mean KidZone is closing earlier? Why must you tease me so

 

[Viator]

This will be one interesting HHN year

Is Kidzone closing before the horror hits the fan (ala Disaster) or after HHN (ala Twister)?

 

[jrn14]

will ET be open in October ray:

 

[Viator]

I'll ponder something, with the new parade building FINALLY completed; could that mean that it may potentially go with the rest of Kidzone, now that a suitable replacement has been found? Or are they just going to keep the original building there, for the sake of having space for future events?

Honestly, if they include the Parade Building into the equation (without ET mind you), it would give them nearly nine acres. Now, including ET, would add more; with it then clocking to nearly 11 acres of land.

Just food for thought.

With that extra room, could 2 entrances be possible?

 

[Viator]

Park entrances? Or land entrances?

Land entrance wise, they could already do one for Springfield and one for the current Kidzone entrance.

Land entrance. Even just to stop it being a dead end. With the exception of Diagon, I kind of love that you can always enter and leave a ride in a different direction.

The problem with a second entrance is cutting backstage access off for FFB. Not sure they'd really want to do that. But Unless they go the tunnel route, they'd have to.

USH doesn't have the backstage access like how Orlando does, and they handle it fine.

That's what we've been emphasizing for the past year or so. No reason to take out ET, and plenty of room for Yoshii.

Although, if they do get rid of ET; that could pose a potential way for distancing the three separate attractions, and expanding the immersive element of SNW to another new level.

 

[WAJAS]

Also, Finnegan's, Mel's, Monster's Cafe, Richter's, seasonal event tents

 

[brianlo]

I really hope they keep ET, mostly due to the concerns I'm having with the USO menu variety. I'd prefer Nintendo be three steps forward, with no steps back.

The park technically needs to make up for Jaws and Disaster in terms of major variety, please don't add ET to that list.

 

[GAcoaster]

While many people consider ET a "classic" movie and attraction, I think it has lost a lot of cultural relevance over time.
