Super Nintendo World (Epic Universe)

The awkwardness that is Hogwarts ....then BOOM! Giant Golden Monkey Temple above the trees..

At least Epic Universe won't have this issue lol

The visual effect that they are going for is pretty dang good! DK is going to have excruciating wait times IMO.....everyone is going to want to ride this. This might be the ride that I head to first at park opening.

Yeah, it'll probably have Hagrid level lines, especially since it doesn't have very good capacity. I'm guessing it'll be more popular than the Mario ride. And it will be a strikingly beautiful area,

I've already been mentally plotting out my strategy for when I visit the park the first time.

I'm going to allot two days for the park (two lands a day, roughly), and Donkey Kong will absolutely be the first priority on the day in Super Nintendo World (because I've already been on Mario Kart... and I can't fathom rope-dropping Yoshi!).

I'm hoping to go to Universal Japan in October and I'm already dreading the process of riding DK. Reservations to get into the land and then a potential 3+ hour wait for a short rollercoaster? Man. I hope it works out.

If it's any consolation, when I went back in February I was able to get into the land just fine. You just have to be there really early right at opening and it'll work out. I was able to do MK+Yoshi and eat at Kinopio's. Though I think DKC will probably make it a little harder I'm sure it'll work out if you're there early.

Where is the entrance to the DK Ride , can't really tell from photos ?

 

[jarmor]

To the right of the waterfall.

To the right of the waterfall.

I think it's actually to the left, the exit is on the right.

Hopefully it’s a heavy emphasis on the DK portion of the land. Curious if we’ll get actual photos of Japan’s DK since it will be near identical.

Probably, our SNW is basically going to be exactly the same as Japan's just slightly bigger. Ever so slightly. Lol

Disappointed only because the other two lands have more mystery to them unlike Nintendo.

Donkey Kong is the only area of interest (for me) for this land reveal.

Kiinnnnd of hope they reveal something exclusive to this version tomorrow. Technically Hollywood has an exclusive element, so I hope Orlando has something up its sleeve so it's not literally just slightly bigger Osaka.


This land(s) really need an entertainment element. Give us a show with Mario & Co interacting with one another.

Yeah I'm mostly excited for the merch drop they'll do for the reveal tomorrow, at least that'll be something new I hope

We do know the layout of the land is slightly different on the upper level, with there being much more space just to the left of Peaches Castle. I'm intrigued to see if anything is there, or if it's just extra walking space.

May of 2015 is when it was announced and now in May of 2024 we’re finally getting specific details of our version.

Coincidence? Probably, yeah.

Did I write this post just to point out it’s been 9 years? 10 when it opens? You bet’cha
