It appears based on some repeat news posts that they are getting lost in the discussion. While I would love to break 1000 and break the views record from last year the goal is still news. So let’s make sure that’s what is talked about thanks!

I'm a video game nerd and a Nintendo fan over the years. The prospect of a Nintendo Land doesn't excite me at all unless it comes with an amazingly different video game/ride experience (which is kind of what I'm expecting out of the Millennium Falcon ride). The different Nintendo properties don't scream immersive worlds to me (they are iconic characters but not worlds).

You could make a whole park out of Nintendo and create a Magic Kindgom mirror park with HyRule castle in the middle, mario land on one side, zelda world in another, metroid on one and Pokemon on the other. That would be incredibly popular I bet, but not nearly as "immersive" as a SWGE.

Id rather have the views which we are at 1.446 million. Last year we had 1.7 million.

well, last year did have D23 ... I suspect that next year might surpass everything / new records with all the new park openings and constructions and movies, etc.

Yep. I’m already in prep mode for the official Star Wars planning thread. Going to be a big year.
