Super Nintendo World (UOR) - General Discussion Thread

I remember @Teebin showed me info on that DK track western testing site all the way back before Nintendo was going to start its build & open at USF. He had all the Mario Kart & Yoshii stuff back then too...and that would easily have predated Japan if the last minute decision on Epic hadn't come down.

I was going to jump in on this and say I’m pretty sure based on what I remember reading on here years ago, SNW (DK included) was designed to fit into kidzone and it just kept a similar or the same layout as the one in epic

Well that explains it even more. It was never meant to be a landmark / large attraction due to space limitations. My point still stands , I hope they go all out for the next Nintendo ride . I’m also curious how you add power up band functionality to a Zelda land / ride
I know. Lot of people still want Luigi mansion , but I’m personally not a fan of shooting gallery rides. Hoping that’s not what Zelda eventually becomes.

It moved for me yesterday.

It moved for me every ride I took on both days.

I think donkey Kong was designed for Japan first which is why it was such a smaller coaster then what it could have been. Hoping the next Nintendo area takes advantage of the space and goes all out.

Universal Japan is like the 3rd most visited theme park on Earth.

I'm sure this has been discussed before; had SNW gone into USF, would we have gotten DKC? Where would that have gone? Based on the current layouts across the parks, that would place it over E.T., which doesn't sound right to me.

There was enough room for everything that’s there now at Epic without getting rid of ET but no room for expansion.

I’m already considering going up for another day during my vacation time that I’m taking for the Switch 2. This land more than any other makes me wish I was an Orlando local and it’s not even just the rides, IT’S THE GAMES!!!!!

In all my years I never bought a wand and yes I know the bands are just to keep score and the games are technically free outside Bowser Jr. but I still had to buy a Luigi band lol
