Nintendo Coming to Universal Parks

I hope there are no "games" in the queue. They come off as tacky

I'm thinking more like touch screen games while in line. Like building the car at Test Track.

Probably likely, especially for Mario kart. Maybe a build your own kart in the que.

Also, I prefer lines that actually move.

Games stopping you from moving in a queue line (ex. Space Mountain) is purely something that is in your mind, not reality. You aren't going to get on the ride any faster without those games... or if you really want, just pass the people playing the games.

Let me rephrase: I prefer lines that move at a decent pace and make games in the queue unnecessary.

 

[Scott W.]

Ideally I'd get put into a room and play a game of mario kart and then get the room called to join a smaller queue before riding. Kind of like dumbo but with video games instead of a play area.

I'd rather play games while standing in line than standing in line with nothing to do.

That's why the good lord made smartphones.

If Universal create an app similar to my Disney experience with Nintendo games built in, it's a win win.

I fully predict some app based interaction around the land.

Good idea, especially since nintendo is embracing integration between all its services, including mobile app games.

 

[PINK]

I'm really excited for this entire land. I love Mario Kart and Donkey Kong. I can't wait to see to the concept art. I really hope the c tickets aren't the usual spinner or teacup ride . A highly themed and better frog hopper style ride or swings would be cool.

It would most likely be through the new "My Nintendo" service like they've already said. I'm hoping they make incentives for brining a 3DS.

 

[PINK]

Has it been said when they'll be demolishing KZ?

 

[anihilnation]

I think Jungle Skip said it might not be 'till the beginning of next year.

Miitomo is going to have theme park integration

Theory, not a firm set of information

I would think Fallon would have to open before anything else can get shut down in that park.

Nah. Shut it down after the Holidays this year. Fallon will open Feb/March

 

[quinnmac000]

I wonder if this is planned to be used in this expansion...

 

[GadgetGuru]

Where did the Miitomo / theme park integration news come from? Considering it's Nintendo's first mobile app, I've heard very little about it.
