Disney quest refurb or repurpose

[Thunder Monkey]

The last time I went to disney quest was a few years ago so I don't know if they have done anything recently. But when I was there half of the games weren't working or were so out of date. So here's my question should they gut it and put new games in or just turn the building into something else.

Repurpose. With the proliferation of X-Box and Play Station, people get plenty of high-tech virtual entertainment at home. While Disney Quest could certainly take that up a level, it really isn't needed. I always chuckled at the irony of making a "life-like" roller coaster in a building that is a 5 minute bus ride from the real ones.

I think the initial concept of DisneyQuest was great. The problem is that it didn't work in reality. New technology becomes old technology really quickly and there was no way for them to keep up and have it stay fresh and exciting and interesting.
I also think they made a HUGE mistake when they switched from pay-as-you-go to a ticketed entry. In fact, we haven't been back since they made that change. We're not spending $100+ to go in and play some games for a couple of hours but we would happily pop in periodically if we could just pay for what we did.

At this point, I think the concept is long past its useful life. Close it and put something else there. Sadly, if what they are doing to the rest of DTD is an indication, it will just be more space for chain stores that one can find in any mall around the country. Probably another sunglass store.

Just put all of those things on a truck and move them to EPCOT. I'm sure some of those "attractions" could work in Innoventions, i.e., CyberSpace Mountain could be the tamer, Sum of All Thrills version.
