I made these to match the acreage for both Japan and Orlando. I also included one for Hollywood. None of this is 100% accurate in any way, it's just my interpretation of where Nintendo will go. I used Google Maps Area Calculator.
The visual they gave us for Japan's location didn't really have much to go on so this is what I assumed will be the boundaries for Nintendo.
Went back through Orlando United's forums to check where exactly Nintendo is going. I may be way off on what is leaving but I'm sure someone will correct me.
I know Diagon Alley is heavily rumored to replace ROTM but I figured it wouldn't hurt to see how big that cluster of SS behind the Mummy is. As you can see it is slightly larger than Orlando's proposed site.
For Orlando I was assuming that they would dip into the backstage areas as they may be moved to the new land they just bought. (much like how Circle D Ranch was moved at Disneyland this year to make room for Star Wars)
Nintendo announced today that they will not be showing their new NX console at E3. Zelda will be the only game they have at the show. With the lack of anything to show besides Zelda, E3 seems like a perfect opportunity to announce the Nintendo attractions coming to Universal parks.
And also, I don't think you'll hear ANYTHING Nintendoland oriented for USJ, UO or USH until 2018. They'll have the ability to showcase it more in a big press event, where the 'media' media; the theme park media; and the 'gaming' media can all come together so they can devote the time needed to showcase what they have. Especially considering that Kidzone hasn't even started demolition for Nintendo (and doesn't seem like that it will by the end of the year); along with USJ nor USH starting work either (even with the 'leak' that USJ had a few months back), its too early.
I'm gonna go on a limb and say Hollywood doesn't see this for a while. Tokyo, Singapore and Orlando will be the first ones, solely because there is more room to build and breathe. Just my two cents.
^ Did they release any new information...?
Really excited about this news and also very curious about where it will be located.
