According to this, Zelda is the only attraction (which i guess means show) so i would argue for a park people complain doesn't have shows, it wouldn't be smart to cut it for another ride.

True, but if this being branded as Mushroom Kingdom and we have to enter through Princess Peach's Castle, Hyrule/Zelda doesn't really fit in that world. Mario/DK/Yoshi all live in the same environment. A show would be great to have but Hyrule seems out of place here.

I really don't think this is real.

Pretty creative, though.

As Miyamoto said in an interview as reporters in Japan kept asking why are we only seeing Mario....this is Super Nintendo Land not just mario world so I guess they want to keep everything.

This seems legit. This is going to do wonders for the park's capacity.

Expanded somewhat beyond Kidzone proper as we were speculating.

Hmm, I like the concepts. . .

If the concept art is legit, I'm glad they're keeping E.T for right now as I'm still a fan in despite of how outdated it actually is.

Helps with capacity as well.

Shut up and take my money

Zelda looks like the "Moving Puzzle Theater" patent mentioned on Universal Orlando Resort – Universal’s New Patents Could Be The Future

If this was legit, I would've imagined that mods would of taken this down from the forums for safety.

Color me not believing it.

 

[Mr. EPCOT]

Yeah, I wouldn't get too excited, everybody. Something like this is fun to stoke the fires of the imagination and see what the possibilities could be, but I don't see much chance that this is legit.

I disagree. That's like loudly exclaiming it is real. Which I don't think universal would want either.

The (poor) renders do somewhat match the patents that were released, so it could be just someone faking it, but the source is Gary Snyder which brings a bit of credibility to it. We'll find out soon enough. I'm about 66% sure this isn't legit right now. (But it very well may be)

 

[Mr. EPCOT]

For one thing, I think the DK mine coaster is supposed to be in a show building, and the coaster on that map looks dinky.

EDIT: Although looking at it closer, it does look like the coaster does go indoors for part of its length.

Two parts of this have matched the insiders: Mario Kart (teebin said was real and looked like what he saw) and spirit (who saw Zelda and confirmed that patent 3 months ago for that). Now could he be adding his own spin such but it matches too much with what has been said.

 

[AlexanderMBush]

Food for thought, assuming if this is real; what if this was the original proposal given to Nintendo? Food for thought.

 

[Mad Dog]

It could be a planned Universal leak. Sounds like it to me. They'll deny it, but it will be food for discussion without them being pinned to the wall for more definitive info. Info looks accurate even if details might be off a bit.....Always trust in Teebin. This basically matches most of the Forum hints he's been giving us for the last few years.

 

[yankees13]

Wow, that's more than I would have thought they'd get. I guess we gotta wait for the insiders that post here to comment on it. If that's legit, wow!

 

[Living_Bread]

I feel the Donkey Kong ride could still be indoor, and the gray is supposed to represent darkness? I'm not sure, I mean I hope so. I don't think it would be good to see the bottom track from any angle of the ride, it ruins that effect.

That is if this is real which I'm on the fence... but Teebin's comment makes me believe it is
