Not nowMetroid would be cool, but I don't think it's the IP they would go for if they wanted to add a dark sci-fi attraction to the park.
We’re gonna take a break on this conversation.Not now
But we are talking almost 10 years from now when I could see a Metriod ride
By then if there are a few hit games, a movie and maybe even in super smash then who knows..things change
Animal Crossing wasn't HUGE until the Pandemic....Fire Emblem wasn't until the 3DS and Kirby while being big is even bigger now then ever
Not every ride needs to be interactive, but these are video game rides. They should almost always be interactive. DK only gets a pass because it's a game accurate Mine Cart coaster, and it's near impossible to add interactivity to a coaster (much less a prototype).I'm not the biggest fan of "every ride needs to be interactive" trend. I just want more rides to ride without having to do anything lol
Obviously a "Boo Blaster" would be expected for Luigi's Haunted Mansion, but I almost wouldn't mind a traditional technologically advanced classic dark ride like Disney's Haunted Mansion.
Mario Kart doesn’t have a ton of animatronics.That’s what I was thinking as well, but MK already has shooting elements.
Kind of putting a hat on a hat.
I know. I was only answering a question about ideas for a ride.Guys, Metroid does not have the mass appeal to justify a theme park attraction. Beyond perhaps some merchandise, it's not coming to the parks anytime soon.
I’m not a fan of everything being interactive either but Metroid just fits into that mold far too well. As an example, I wouldn’t want the Zelda ride or the idea of the Super Mario Galaxy Coaster to be interactive.Not every ride needs to be interactive, but these are video game rides.

I think Wario's only presence is his likeness on the pattern of different Mario racers we see in the backdrop of certain parts of the Mario Kart preshow. I really hope they find a way to implement him someday as well.I love Wario and do think they should figure out a way to include that character down the line even if it's a small cameo since it's weird he was snubbed from the Mario land without getting any recognition.
Giving a mini land to Wario's spinoff games is a tougher sell though than other character spinoffs in the Mario world given how much more niche it is than the rest. (Donkey Kong Country, Yoshi's Island, Luigi's Mansion)
I wonder if after they make a Pokemon and Zelda land, maybe they could make a general Nintendo/smash bros land to represent the properties who aren't big enough to hold down their own landsI think Wario's only presence is his likeness on the pattern of different Mario racers we see in the backdrop of certain parts of the Mario Kart preshow. I really hope they find a way to implement him someday as well.
Also, I still feel like an easy way to represent other properties would be just adding more cameos here and there, like 8-bit Power-up band spots that have an 8-Bit Link for example. 3D World did have one after all. They could also try and find a way to implement a few cameos of other IPs that would fit in the Mario universe on the Toadstool Cafe screens; I know I mentioned Kirby for that before but I think Pikmin could also work, you could probably see a few Pikmin carrying a coin or other antics for example.
I moreso think of a Universal owned Nintendo Park, but it feels like that might be in the far distant future, since I think that'd depend on how well the upcoming Frisco park does. Really hope Nintendo and Universal would still be up for working together by then, but they probably will be if they're still making movies by then.maybe they could make a general Nintendo/smash bros land to represent the properties who aren't big enough to hold down their own lands
