Nintendo Coming to Universal Parks

[Alicia]

Complete speculation.

Ahem.

 

[Imperius]

I love how this site has like 5+ people with sources. Makes it the best place for theme parks.

 

[Teebin]

Ahem.

??? I am not sure what is the honest answer.

Sorry. Was just clearing my throat.

But seriously, I have heard an indication that some plans may already be in place for additions near the KidZone site, but maybe only small to start. But definitely something is already being set aside for the future and that's pretty darn exciting.

I've been busy with life so this thread fell to the wayside.

I still get a Yoshi ride, right?

Yes.

Yes.

Yay!

You may continue. *pits pitchfork away*

Aaaah... I wonder if ET is still in play. Cutting through to the MIB area would be... a lot of engineering and money.

Can you imagine what Super Nintendo World look like at Halloween Horror Nights? I would imagine they keep it open just like the Dr Seuss area at HHN back in 2002. Imagine the music playing this like the Simpsons does at HHN Universal Studios Hollywood.

 

[Imperius]

Unless Nintendo does their own Halloween thing I don't see HHN being there. Probably just like Diagon, open but nothing inside.

Oh I'm not saying it will, SNW is really kid-friendly so I expect something out of 2002 HHN Booville (where you played music backwards, nothing else, no scareactors). I do expect some iconic scary Nintendo music being played at HHN or SNW area be closed. Not sure how Nintendo executives would react to this though.

More likely it will not be open at all the first few years.

Just because I like this picture so much I'll post it again but I think this gives a good idea of the land available without Kidzone there.

What year is this from?

What year is this from?

I believe it was about the time the park opened.

It's very similar an unedited version of this:

Yea, looks like 1990 or 1991 at the latest.

Yes. 1992 the Slime Gyser opened at Nick and it looks like that is under construction.

The Wild West Stunt Show is missing and that opened in 91.

The Wild West Stunt Show is missing and that opened in 91.

Don't mention that show in my presence. I will openly weep for it. We miss you awesome stunt show. We miss you.
