Bio dropping a bunch of work on twitter this morning

What is the darker stuff? A giant compost heap of ground up vegetation?

And its hard to tell but at the working edge of the new dirt it looks like maybe 15 feet is being added? Whole lotta dirt.

Universal could save some money and lay off their Marketing department. BIO does all the marketing that's needed....for free yet. :thumbsup:....Yaaa...BIO. :celebrate:...:thumbsup:

Thinking about this park, the more excited I am for the possible end product 10 years after opening.
Can you imagine a full fledged Nintendo World encompassing IPs all across Nintendo as a end product.

I highly doubt that, though I’d love it just to get Metroid.

So Universal Hollywood hosts a Lunar New Year event which looks really cool. I doubt this would come to Universal Studios Florida (because Mardi Gras conflicts) but maybe to Fantastic Worlds??

I'd love it - but SoCal has a huge Chinese demographic, which is why the parks there focus on the event more than here.

Oh shoot good point. Well, hopefully UFW might have other comparable events. Maybe Carnival for the Brazilian tourists.

We call it Mardi Gras

Does anyone believe Luigi's Mansion could be a part of Super Nintendo World? Especially since the 3rd game is coming out this summer.

I haven't read anything from any of the insiders suggesting it was ever part of any plans. Anything is possible with UO leaving open space for future expansion pads in the new park, but for the opening of the park opening I would guess no.

I've never played Luigi's Mansion, but I've seen some of it - I can imagine it would do well as a shooting gallery omnimover (like Buzz).

With Luigi's Mansion it's more about sucking up ghosts with a vacuum as opposed to shooting them But I'm sure they could develop some kind of cool/patented 3D system where it looks like you're actually sucking them up

But not holding my breath

New infrastructure plans released today. I'm a fan of this image, kinda gives us an idea of where the lands for the new park may be located.



EDIT: Here it is in case you wanna draw on it your ideas for the new park:



Park entrance will be bottom-right, where those long access roads dead end.

Willing to bet that CityWalk will be right next to that random dead end in the parking lot.

If the lake stays where it's at, this looks kind of like a Magic Kingdom layout, which fits the hub and spoke layout info that's out there. Just no Tom Sawyer island on the lake (aka Rivers of the Fantastic World).

It’s so veiny.

They're technically routes for fire rescue. That's why they're included in the plans. They may not perfectly delineate the different worlds, but it may come pretty close.

If you took the fire lanes for IOA, it would probably give a pretty accurate representation of the park and it’s lands. I might draw up something similar later.

You can see from IoA, sometimes they'll be between lands and sometimes they'll be in the middle of the land.

Is that the bus drop off that I see in the parking lot next to the park?
