I think Disney is about to find out , that the kids would rather go to Mario world and “Dragon world “ than fantasy land.

There will be no shortage of princesses, but Epic will have more appeal to traditionally masculine boys.

There is a Disney IP that’s huge with boys, but the location it’s going in is ruffling some feathers.

Cute family attraction. Not everything has to be a D/E ticket. Has always reminded me of the Seuss Trolly at IOA.

the height requirement (while i understand it’s necessary!) stinks, though, and limits just how broad that family is.

I'll give them credit for the Epic version, it's very plus size friendly. SLoP at USH utilizes the same ride vehicles and not very many plus size peeps fit on that one, same in Tokyo. Not sure what they changed but for the Epic Universe version anyone can fit. As long as it goes down even a little bit you're fine. Very happy they improved that.

Super Nintendo World offers everything a fan of Nintendo could want or ask for. You truly feel like you have entered into the world of their video games. The two main entrances both force you upstairs, one by escalator, the other by a flight of stairs. While trekking those two flights of stairs to the entrance is not fun, I actually prefer the second entrance as it's much moodier and atmospheric.

Once you exit Peach's Castle, you are immediately bombarded with an onslaught of external stimuli. The land is bursting with kinetic motion, everywhere you look something is moving or making noise and there is a close to infinite amount of interactive elements to discover and play with (including multiple blocks to bop with your hands or your head, if you're feeling brave enough). It's overwhelming, but undeniably effective and immersive. There's even a mini-land attached to Super Nintendo World themed to Donkey Kong Country.

Donkey Kong Country isn't particularly big, but it is well-themed and the music that plays throughout the area is an absolute bop. Super Nintendo World will try to convince you to buy a Power-Up Band, a wearable accessory similar to a MagicBand that allows you to unlock mini-games throughout the land, track your score on Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge, and compete with friends/family. A Power-Up Band costs approximately forty-eight dollars. In order to use the band in Donkey Kong Country, you have to purchase a Donkey Kong Country add-on accessory.

YOSHI'S ADVENTURE

What a delightful little ride. It's essentially Epic's version of the Seuss Trolly Train Ride, but so much better than it's predecessor. First off, the queue is adorable as heck and the music that plays throughout it is very nice. The story is that we are joining Yoshi for an egg hunt. When you find an egg on the ride, you press the corresponding egg button on your ride vehicle.

The Yoshi vehicles are VERY slow moving, and the ride feels like it could be a little bit longer. It basically exists to give guests a relaxing aerial view of Super Nintendo World, but there is one interior show scene and multiple animatronics throughout. I've heard people complaining about this one, but I can't agree. I found it to be incredibly relaxing and pleasant.
