Super Mario in particular. From what I heard, a Cranky Kong animatronic was also confirmed, so also Donkey Kong. Curious if there was mention of Zelda, since that was rumored to replace the area surrounding Sinbad.

Some are also saying a yoshi omnimover is rumored to come, with lots of AAs. Hope it’s true.

Definitely interested about Zelda ... not sure the best application for in a park. I'd love a "VOID" like virtual reality experience themed to Zelda

I assume the Donky Kong would be the mine train themed roller coaster with the arm attached to the track below the scenes so it can look like it is making jumps and stuff

I think that would be fun and nice to not just focus on major e-ticket type attractions

Ah, a "mission to mars" sign sighting. Brings back old memories of when I was young. I really thought we were going to Mars! Would love to sit in that one now and see how antiquated compared to the sim's now a days. But man did I enjoy it.
