I'll take my kids there when Covid's behind us and air travel is possible again!
Exciting but frustrating at the same time because it seems like air travel will take forever to recover.

 

[ZeroFX]

Cool I'll go there, one day, who knows.

I'll go there when they are in Euro 3D Land. Can't travel half way across the 3D World.

Not so soon I'm afraid. Construction has started but it's expected to open in 2025.

I know, just wish it was here

The better question is, where's the Southern Hemisphere one?

 

[tfocosta]

And what about Europe? We like Nintendo and Mario too!

I'll wait for more parks to open up and then buy a pass for Super Nintendo All Stars + Super Nintendo World. Patient amusement parkers FTW.

Anyway, this is opening a tad sooner than I expected. I was guessing they would try it around May, after more vaccines are rolled out. I guess they have to open up sometime though.

I'm skipping this round. Leaks say Nintendo is already working on Super Nintendo Galaxy with improved visuals and better frame rate.

Isn't this a bit early? I'm pretty sure this whole pandemic is still a bit too... Existent to open a theme park.

 

[BlazeMasterBM]

I need to live in Japan so I can go do Mario Kart in real life.....

 

[Bagel Le Stinky]

Too bad I live in Canada

 

[Seliph]

Seems a bit dangerous but go off
