lmao.
lmao.
Brilliant news.
In some ways I was hoping for a full theme park, but this will do just fine.
F-Zero ride please.
Holy cow you guys weren't kidding with the "west of the Mississippi" thing. I always knew Disneyland could use Marvel but not Disney World but I'm amazed the actual contract mentions the damn Mississippi as border.
If anything I prefer that this is being handled by Universal - If Nintendo went it alone... well I think they'd just get it completely wrong if i'm honest.

You guys were also correct about Universal Orlando holding Marvel in perpetuity so scratch that land as possibility for Nintendo Land.
Another tidbit that could give us an indication of the tortuous wait ahead of us: that Marvel-Universal contract? Was made in 1994. The actual park opening with the Marvel section ready? 1999.
This Nintendo deal being announced in 2015 tells me we won't set foot inside Nintendo Land before 2018 at best. And that's being very very positive.
I'd say 2020 would be a possible year.
True.It'll be a collaboration. One of Universal's greatest strengths it's it's ability to work with the creators of IPs. They worked with Dr. Suess' widow for Suess Landing in IoA. WB and JK Rowling have to sign off on everything they do for Harry Potter. They also worked with Michael Bay and ILM for Transformers (ignore the films; the ride is great!). No doubt Nintendo will have creative impact on this project.

Where's the Universal Studios, California attractions
this is bullshit
Universal is building stuff at an insane pace. I could actually see 2018-2019 if they want it bad enough. Comcast is splurging money into the parks.
That sounds about right. The most likely sites are Woody Woodpecker's Kidzone or Toon LagoonHoly cow you guys weren't kidding with the "west of the Mississippi" thing.

Sounds great. All they need to do is get the help of the folks that made the Mario Kart 8 tracks and we'll be in business.

Smart money's on Dr Seuss Island possibly as well. Far from being Islands of Adventure's most popular section and its also one lacking an E Ticket ride (just like Toon Lagoon).That sounds about right. The most likely sites are Woody Woodpecker's Kidzone or Toon Lagoon
Maybe they don't have room at that one.Where's the Universal Studios, California attractions
this is bullshit
Universal will probably replace Toon Lagoon. Or the Play Areas.
Universal renovates regularly.
Maybe they don't have room at that one.

Always wanted this--thought it'd be Disney that Nintendo would team up w/ though :O
I live in Orlando, born and raised.
This Nintendo thing isn't happening for at least a couple years or more. In the news article they talk about how they are still at the concept phase. Theme park concepts take a LONG time to implement.
+1. This is the closest Universal I can easily go to.
Better have the concept on every Universal theme parks.
yep yep yep it's the nearest one that I can go
You'll probably see Mario and Nintendo merchandise at the theme parks pretty quickly.
So just Universal Kyoto and Orlando so far right?
I am expecting a 3D ride. Because it would be perfect.
