Back in 2015, the exact night that Nintendo and Universal announced their partnership, I made a promise to myself that I'd be going Day 1 to whatever Nintendo attraction was built here in Orlando. I've remembered and planned on keeping true to that promise for the past 10 years.
But, I will not be there tomorrow. Back in October, I was only able to get tickets for Day 2. Had that remained my only access to the park, I'd probably currently be huddling in a little tent outside the parking lot as I type this. I'm not doing that either.
I kept my promise! I overdelivered! I was able to join with a TM family member back in March, which was an incredible experience. I was able to do all of the Nintendo attractions, including Mario Kart twice due to some technical issue shenanigans. 2015 GA-MBIT is already more than satisfied. : )
I've still got my tickets for Friday, May 23rd, but I'm gonna try to call Guest Relations tomorrow and see if I can get it pushed back honestly. Not feeling super interested in trudging through those kinds of crowds, and I want the best shot possible at experiencing the last big things I missed last time (Ministry, the shows, Toad's Cafe), and that probably won't be the possible anytime this week haha.
Best of luck to whoever is going tomorrow! Happy Opening!!
