And what is going on at those new offices down on Commodity Circle? Hmm....
Was that part of the land acquisition or no? I am assuming some kind of work is being done to the offices on that property that may hint at something "future" related.

Ok, here is my most recent convoluted info.
The Nintendo project is in a reevaluation phase after someone with some power at Comcast/Universal saw the SW:GE model at D23. I still believe that Phase 1 will still be starting either after HHNs ends or Jan. And is pretty much what we know.
There have been significant changes to what would have been Phase 2. Which is now Phase 1.25, and will start asap. Which will be about a year from now or so since they just started scrambling on it towards the end of August.
We're not used to logical in this thread!

MK, DK, and Yoshi were/are in the cards for KidZone... All for phase 1.So, do the Orlando phases include Mario Kart, DK and Yoshi? The first two were all I ever heard of being definite.
Too, everything I ever saw was designed with Japan in mind; Japan visible in one case. Perhaps that was only a point of diplomacy?
Told ya USF wouldn't be enough for ZeldaYeah, if the "Phase 1.25" was behind MIB/Simpsons, I don't see why they would need to wait an extra year to get started on it since it's literal empty land. My theory is that LC is closing next year so Zelda can come shortly after Mario.
Changed as in bigger or less?I heard plans are switching up for Orlando. So let's see what really happens down the line.
Changed as in bigger or less?
Figured as much but you never know.It's not gonna be less
Comcast/Universal philosophy: "Go BIG or go home"
Yes, as you so aptly stated.Your information appears to be on target........ ....For those who are latecomers, I'll attempt to summarize the fairly new info/rumors that many of us believe the present state of Nintendo is, according to information that IU Insider Disneyhead believes, according to his sources, is happening. According to Dave (Disneyhead), Comcast, after they saw the model plans for GESW at D23, directed Orlando Universal to expand the Orlando Nintendo land with a quick expansion to follow the original land (Mario, Yoshii Donkey Kong). Dave describes this as a Nintendo 1.25, namely a fast track expansion to the Super Nintendo Land targeted for Kidzone. The 1.25 expansion would be Zelda, which would be located on part of the expansion pad between MIB and Springfield. This in effect, would be the final volley in the battle against the WDW Disney GESW land opening (and some of the other D23 announcements). The first two volleys being the HP expansion in place of DC, and Ministry of Magic fast tracked in the FF area. So far, no timeline on the Nintendo completion date, but more should be known after HHN closes. As always, Universal often changes plans in midstream, nothing is official at this point, so it's kind of wait and see what develops.Quite the understatement, MD.
Honestly, Hollywood should be the smallest at this point; but that's more due to the location.
Ministry of magic??

Ministry of magic?? What?
Could be they just set the lines up like that, to see how things work with this setup.I feel like Kid Zone will still start closing soon. Don't see any other reason why they made so many adjustments to HHN lines. I could be wrong and this was done before these changes were made also.
