Super Nintendo World - Hollywood (General Discussion)

[joerodriguez]

I found an interesting comment that was made on the Exploring attractions channel. Scott said here at around the 8:28 mark that a studio tour guide had commented recently that "Universal is ahead of schedule in regards to the early 2023 opening time frame." Hope this means that a soft opening is still on the table for November or December.

I'm going to be honest, I'm a little disappointed they didn't take better advantage of the whole multi-level gimmick (especially with how little space Hollywood has to work with). I feel like Bowser's Challenge not being on the same level as the entrance (as it is in Osaka) might cause some accessibility issues for guests.

Can I ask what you mean by accessibility issues? I would assume they will have elevators as needed to assist guests who can’t use stairs?

What I meant is that there's going to be major congestion to get to Mario Kart.

Finally I'm curious what is going on here, seemingly for the interactive games but looks like another turret like on Bowsers castle but with it's own flag pole:

This smaller castle structure will be the entrance to the Bowser Jr. boss challenge level. Japan has the same mini turret in front of their icy winter section of the land.. it just looks different here bc Japans is attached to bowsers castle and in Hollywood its across the land on the bottom floor. The only thing I find very interesting in Hollywood's version is that there seems to be a second floor that takes guests outside on a balcony area. Japan definitely does not have that.

From Theme Park Obsession, it seems Scaffolding is coming to the side of the MK building next to the SNW entrance.

Glad they aren't leaving it just an exposed show building. It looks pretty bad from the pictures i've seen right near the entrance to the land.

Almost makes me want a construction progress montage set to the song once the land is finished just from this comment alone.

I actually think this looks worse if they just leave the blue, lol.

I would prefer they do a bit more. Draw some more artsy stuff on there that fits the theme and look, but even if it is just blue, I can at the very least imagine the blue as the sky behind the rolling hills rather than being taken fully out of it by the gray.

I doubt they're leaving it at blue. Pretty sure that's just the first layer

Yeah--I'm having to wonder if they'll have a planter to the right side, especially as the exit for SNW won't be at this position but instead over at Jurassic. Would allow them to blend it in better, and to allow a proper backstage gate to then be formed once the time comes.

Curious as to if the blue section is visible inside the land?

Otherwise it looks quite goofy to have one blue building in the middle of 50 sound stages..

The blue section probably isn't visible from the land. See the warp pipe entrance there? My guess is this will eventually be a mural.

Well, it's about time! Hope they decorate that side with a bunch of Mario Kart or other Nintendo stuff!

 

[Jerroddragon]

If its blue with clouds on it...maybe that will look better.

Strange they are painting this and didn't do much to SLOP which is facing the entrance side of the park

 

[AlexanderMBush]

Adding on, scaffolding has come up for the top portion too, with scaffolding on the side facing SNW and the side facing TF.

Would have been cool to see this from the street level to see the effect

Kind of hope they bulid 3D clouds instead of just painting them. It'll give the entry plaza more dimension.
