I stopped by after work last Friday... the main queue said 90 min (it was defintely outside the castle), and the SR line was also nearly all the way around the outside of the castle, not far from the top of the stairs. Is that typical? And how long of an SR wait would that be? I didn't stick around long enough to find out.

Standby queue outside the castle could only be like 30-45 minutes if ops are good.

Single rider outside the castle, at least 60 minutes.

Don't blame you at all, I honestly can never get enough of the entrance music among other things. I don't know if I ever put it this way, but I really love how grandiose it sounds, it kind of gives "finally here" kind of vibes, especially with how it sounds like a Nintendo spin on the music you hear outside of Disneyland. I think it's why I had such a huge smile on my face when I was quickly taking some photos before I went in during technical rehearsals. I'm definetely not ever going to forget that feeling.

If/Once they release the soundtrack of the land, I'm willing to bet they'll have the Orchestra and 8-Bit versions of the theme as their own tracks, because not only do both play on opposite ends of the entrance, they both compliment each other but also sound great in their own rights.

I got done with my day at the park. This was a dream come true. When I went down the escalators and could see Super Nintendo World in the flesh I was containing childlike glee and just saying Wow at everything. That entrance into the land just feels unreal. I can recognize the incredible craft put into the Wizarding World lands but I didn't grow too attached to that franchise beyond seeing the movies. Mario though is something that's been with me my entire life as a lover of videogames.

Hands down this is my favorite spot in any theme park in the world even if other areas may do certain elements better. Orlando will truly be something special when it gets it. For now, Super Nintendo World delivered for me to fly across the country to see it, and the rest of Universal Hollywood was a great park that delivered some new experiences to me that aren't in Orlando. (I really enjoyed Jurassic World, the Studio Tour, and WaterWorld to name a few!)

I have 1 more day here at the park tomorrow and I'm gonna just savor every last bit of it cause this is the last time I get to step into this world until it opens at Epic Universe. My goal tomorrow is to get on Mario Kart as many times as I can since I only got to do it once. :clap:

Glad you had a great time and that it lived up to your expectations. If you can, make use of that single rider line early - you skip the preshows (which can get a bit repetitive) and can probably get a couple laps in before it gets unusuably mobbed.

Good idea! Today I wanted to see the full queue but tomorrow I will definitely use single rider for re-rides.

Waiting for my time to be called outside the SNW entrance at USJ opening month was probably the most hyped I have ever been for anything at theme park. I know the feeling.

Realization: you think the parked might be super packed tomorrow because of Mario day?

I think it'll be super packed because it's a Friday, there's a new land, and several school districts are on Spring Break. The whole "MAR10" day thing probably won't make a dent outside some influencers looking to do a stunt.

I went yesterday and didn't get to do anything SNW because MK was down for a while and when it went open it had a HUGE wait and the single rider line was out past the hour mark so was not doing that

I'd say from this point on until late April get ready for it to be crowded every day in this land.

Given one of the AR binocular events, maybe they could get away with it in the future? Doesn't feel impossible.

(Did not know a bunch of other school districts were already on SB. Thought that wasn't until April since that how it was in my area.)

We’ll find out soon but I think it’s going to be slow. Raining all day Friday.

Is it just me or has the app been buggy lately? When I booted it up today just to check my scores and stuff, my band was no longer there on the app, and when I tried to scan it, I either got a "Server Error, Please Try Again later" Popup or the same setup popup except now it claims the name on my power up band is taken and I can't even get past it, as it keeps saying the name is taken and stuff.

I'm in the land now, just giving an update to anyone it's helpful to.

Parked at 9:20 am.
Security check 15 min line.
Entrance turnstile 10 min line.
Got into the land at 10:00 am.

At 10 am, Mario Kart posted regular wait was 120 min.
Single rider was empty down until the staircase. Took a 20 min wait.
Ride stalled once, but just a couple min wait.

At 10:30, posted regular wait was 150 min.
Single rider line now started soon after you get back inside from the outdoor top part of the queue. Took a 35 min wait.
Ride stalled twice, one of them a little longer maybe 5 min and the other just a minute.

Rain is just a drizzle, not too bad with an umbrella or poncho or water resistant jacket.

Toadstool online link worked, reservations opened at 7:00 am. Had choice of any reservation up to 8 people, anywhere from 9:00 am to 6:15 pm.
Looks like reservations still open right now for the end of the day, with times of 5:30 to 6:15.
No line outside Toadstool for those returning w reservations, looks like inside line starts after the gift screen.

Most game lines look 30-60 min or so. Thwomp a little less, no line outside, starts just inside entrance. Bowser Jr also no line outside, starts somewhere inside entrance.

Doesn't look like Virtual Queue has been needed today.

App has been syncing w Power Up Band and working fine.

Haven't seen anything special for MAR10 Day.

How does the link for Toadstool work? Do you have to enter the park to get it?
